Quality Would you consider this product to be made well? How dependable? I've had the guitar for almost 2 years now. It's still in great shape. I play it a lot. The woods are good. EMG pickups, which you can't beat. Reliability How has it stood up over time? I've played the guitar a lot. Scalloped the neck. I have it tuned down to Bb. It still plays great. It's my favorite guitar. Overall Your general opinion of this product. I think this is a very good quality guitar, especially for the price. I've had the guitar for a couple years. I play it a lot. I took the time to write this because I think ESP made a great guitar that affordable. It really does not get any better if you like metal for this price. Playability and Feel How does it feel, Heavy, Fast, Chunky? How was the neck? Are the controls easy to get to while playing? This guitar is comfortable. It's shaped very ergonically. No rough corners. It's neck-through so no heel joint. There's an extra cutaway on the bottom horn for easier access to the high notes. Neck is thin but not the thinnest. I don't like thin necks. I feel this could have been even a bit more round. But not too bad. Definitely will not impede anything and there's enough to grab to make bending comfortable. I don't have mine set up with low action. This guitar has some weight to it, which I prefer. It's like a les paul w/emg tone in a strat style body. Pretty sick. Tone Bright and snappy? Dark and smooth? Were the pickups hot, mellow, thick, thin? This is the best part of the guitar. It's mahogany. Neck through. Maple veneer. Rosewood fretboard. EMG p/u's. This thing sounds amazing. It's the perfect combination of wood and pickups. Finish How did the stain or paint job look? Stain on this looks awesome. Very smooth. Very deep. The wood look great through the red. People always compliment me on this guitar. Action How was the action out of the box? The action was great. I don't think I changed it. I just scalloped the neck. Ha! It plays great. I'm sure that it could be set to whatever you like.
