Here for sale we have an ESP LTD EC200QM electric guitar in See Thru Black finish. Made in Indonesia in 2008, this guitar features a set-neck construction comprising an Agathis body with Quilted Maple Veneer top, Mahogany neck and 24 fret Rosewood fingerboard. Black Nickel hardware is fitted, including a TOM style bridge and stopbar tailpiece, along with a set of sealed ESP tuning machines. A pair of passive ESP LH-301 humbucking pickups are installed, and are wired to a 3-way toggle switch, independent volumes and master tone controls, with a push/pull coil split function on the tone control.
The Mahogany neck plays very well, with the Thin 'U' Neck Contour feeling nicely slim and articulate in the hand. The neck remains substantial enough to sustain a firm grip for chord playing, whilst offering practicality for fast technical playing. The Rosewood fingerboard provides a smooth and durable playing surface right the way up the register, and with its 12" radius and extra jumbo frets delivers a rock-solid playing experience with enhanced string bending and vibrato feel.
The pair of ESP LH-301 humbucking pickups installed in this guitar deliver thick and crushing tones, well suited to heavy rock, metal and thrash genres. The neck pickup is round and full bodied, and with plenty of power to push your solo tones to the front of the mix. The bridge pickup is brighter, and with a hotter output can easily push your amp into a searing, saturated distortion tone. The controls are nice and simple whilst offering plenty of scope for tone-shaping. The first volume control is actually for the bridge pickup, which is a common feature on metal oriented guitars, allowing you to easily dial in your perfect sound on the pickup which gets the heaviest use.
