Right out the box, this thing is ready to go. Played it for a couple of hours after receiving, inspecting, and tuning it. I'm absolutely in love with this thing.

Love my ESP 5 String, It plays so smooth and so easy on the fingers.
I Love The EMG pickups, soft handed still picks up the sound. Quality tone too. I have had this bass for about 4 months now and I love it. I have had basses that cost 3 times the amount and don't play and sound this good.
Well done ESP ...Well done!

Great Value & Beautiful Instrument

Product Review
Overall, the value for this bass (came with hard case) is unmatched. From the beautiful spalted maple top (which you usually only find in top-end instruments) to the very comfortable neck and fretboard and the mixed 1 active / 1 passive pickup configuration, this bass is excellent. This is my first 5-string, so I didn't want to spend too much money. But what I got for a very affordable price was quite surprising and exciting. A lot of varied tones can be achieved, so it is suitable to playing all styles of music, which I do.
The only negative was that the neck needed a slight adjustment and the front pickup and mid-range pot were a little loose and needed to be tightened. But very minor compared to everything else the instrument offers. I highly recommend if you are looking for an excellent and versatile instrument that won't break the bank.

The bass arrived today. Right out of the box it was ready to play. Love the natural finish. Best 5 string sound. No issues at all with the bass. AMS is the best when being able to set up payments over time. And their customer service is A-1.

Beautiful finish and not as heavy as it looks

I love this bass! The finish, the pure sound, the pickups, and the weight is all great! Doesn’t matter! Just complete greatness! From the look, it looks to be a heavier bass than most but it’s not at all. I got it and immediately started playing it and it’s one of the best basses I’ve played on. This is just one. I will definitely be getting more and of course I got it in record time. It didn’t take forever for me to receive it. Everything about it is beautiful!

Great guitar for the price

Product Review
This guitar is awesome for the price range. The black finished one looks great. It is a matte black with the grain of the wood still slightly visible which makes it really pop. Not only does it look good but the sound and feel of the neck are surprisingly good as well. This is honestly a smooth playing and great looking guitar in its respective range. No regrets at all. Sure there are better guitars to choose from, but they will cost over 1k and up. This is a well built alternative for about half the price. Good one ESP!

I bought this bass for my sons 20th birthday.
He uses it to play gospel music at church.
This is a good quality bass especially for the price. I would recommend this one and it comes with an excellent case.
In a nutshell, you can't go wrong with this one.

The LTD B205 in Spalted Maple is amazing. Plays flawlessly and has a beautiful finish. For the price you cant beat it, it is just as nice as some basses that I have played that werenin a higher price range. Great for players of any style of music.

Beautiful high quality instrument! Even though it say LTD on the headstock, it ESP quality through and through. Thunderous lows crystal clear highs, the active EQ definitely puts this bass in the $2000 dollar category for less than a grand. If you’re in the market for a bass buy this one!
And if you’re still on the fence, mine came with a genuine ESP hard shell case.

So happy to find this gem at AMS! Plays great. Action is perfect. Sounds amazing! I can dial in anything I want. And the sparked maple too is beautiful. Would be a fantastic value, but throw in an excellent case--forget about it. AMS payments allowed me to start playing right away. Can't beat it. Most strongly recommend!!

I have played music for 40 years. This bass right out of the box was amazing.
For the money I don’t think you will find another with the quality of this one. Love the black chrome.
I did have the bass set up but I didn’t mind doing it because it is so nice. Would recommend someone to purchase this bass. I would buy it again in a heartbeat. Love it

I was skeptical at first with the price point being so low, but the quality of build , finish, pickups, tone and play-ability blew me away. sounds equally great for Jazz all the way to Metal and everything in between, easily the most versatile Bass I own. All I can say is "Buy one today" !

I purchased this bass after playing the six string. I'e never been interested in LTD basses before, but was pleasantly surprised at the rich sound and versatility. I've been a Yamaha/Peavey guy for 25 years but I'm an LTD supporter now!!!
