ESP LTD EC-256 Electric Guitar  

it has what you want in a single cut les paul like guitar.

iv seen worse and iv seen better .

worth every penny .

i have been playing for 18 years now ,played alot of guitars. and i have to say this is a good 1 .

Love it.

The output jack broke within a week.  cheap fix with a soldering iron. Otherwise, I would have rated 10.

I believe that these ESP LTD guitars are about the most bang for your buck you can get.

There are a lot of different products coming out of asia that are of ouststanding quality and I have not tried them all, but of the ones I have used or own, these are second to none.

I bought mine used for a great price.

The installed pickups are best described as weak sounding. They are G and B electronics from korea. I swapped mine for a set of duncans, pearly gates and 59. Replaced the pots and got rid of the coil tap.

I absolutly love these guitars. They have a very comfortable neck and board, very light and resonant. Minor neck adjustment, replaced the nut, crowned 2-3 frets lightly, swapped the electronics and now its been my go to guitar for several months.

Shortly after purchasing this one I bought the EC1000 model and Im equally as impressed with that one. I own fenders, gibsons, ibanez and heritage guitars to name a few and while they are all different and have different qualities, I do not judge this as cheap guitar. Inexpensive, but not cheap, and a lot of fun to play.

Just amazing!! The body is not as heavy as I thought it's pretty easy to move around with. If you know how to work it, the push and pull coil splitter will make a very nice clean sound, and when in distortion, will give you a sweet pinch harmonic.

I just fell in love with the finish!!! The photo does not present the full beauty of this axe!!! I have the Aged Vintage Black! The worn finish is all over and it just gives you that "Tear me Up" feeling. The body is heavy but not much. It stays in tune very well!! The only thing I had to twink was the bridge because there was a little fret buzz, but two little twist in the screws and we're good to go.

Great Value!!! Especially for the price!!! So glad I found this before I got a cheaper one!!!

Amazing, just simply amazing!!! Awesome sound and beautiful looks!! A great guitar for many styles!!!

This guitar is very versatile tone-wise, and the coil-tap feature only adds to this.

Great quality, the aged finish looks very realistic. The guitar feels solid as do all the switches and knobs. I have to say that the finish looks a lot better in person.

This guitar is a steal for the price.

Great guitar! And for this price, you can't complain about anything.

The features on this classic looking axe is excellent plus some. I absolutely love the finish on the gold model.  The push/tap is an excellent complement to bringing out that vintage sound. I couldn't ask for more features than what it comes with, especially with the neck through body design.

There is only a couple of items that are adequate but can be upgraded quite easily.  The stock pickups; they are pretty good, but me being a Michael Wilton (Queensryche) enthusiast I really appreciate the sound of the JB bridge and '56 neck pickups in my ESP guitars. The tuners do their job, but I would pay the extra money for Grover tuners.

The value is awesome and left me room to purchase the ESP EC hard case.  Thanks ESP.

For the amount features with a Mahogany body you really can't ask for more. You would not waste your time purchasing this guitar.  I let a local band use it and had a hard time getting it back. The guitarist liked it so much he played the rest of the gig with it.
