LTD EC-1000FM Amber Sunburst : EXACTLY WHAT I WAS ASKING FOR!

To put it plainly this guitar is wonderful! Construction is near perfect , very few blemishes bar the odd speck of paint which has bled into the binding.

I mainly use this for home playing with a fender mustang V head. The neck is lovely and smooth although gloss finished, the access cutaways work well however there is still a small bit of bite from the corner of the neck joint which can become a bit painful after a while playing higher frets.

In terms of clarity , I can't fault the guitar. The Seymour Duncan pickups cut beatifully , the bridge slices through gain with intense clarity , the neck however, is a small bit muddy when pushing higher gain. However this may be due to my amp being a solid state modeller.

Pros:

Beautiful flame top

Great build quality

Awesome Picksups

Light

Comfy slim U shaped neck

Cons:

Neck joint is a bit hurtful after a while (rounded corner is still a bit sore)

Tuners hold tuning averagely better than some , but I will admit I have had cheaper guitars with import tuners that held better and weren't locking tuners. Not bad by any means.
