The ESP Guitar Company

I just picked up one of these, and it's an absolute beast. Aside from the looks (which photos cannot do justice to), playability is beyond smooth, and the Bone Breaker pickups somehow combine the power and slight compression of active pickups with the volume sensitivity of passives. They're dead silent as well, even without a noise gate. This is a no-compromise professional instrument at a price humans can afford. Well done!

I love this guitar! After buying the KH3 30th, I wanted the classic kirk body style. This guitar is beyond incredible. The paint job is flawless. The skull cross bone inlays pop nicely. Underneath its sparkle and glitz, it's a real work horse. Sounds killer and feels solid. A lot lighter weight than my kh3, and the strings are spaced a touch wider, as well. I can't put the guitar down and I think its my new fav. Thanks ESP. Best guitars in the world. 

got one of these a few months ago and love it play it everyday, i was wondering how do these compare to the 1000 series?

I love this beast I haven't had problems with it. It does everything and goes an extra mile if you want it too. This is a versatile guitar and beautiful to sit back and look at if you can Resist picking it up.

I absolutely love this guitar. I remember waiting at the door like a little boy to receive this great parcel. It arrived and I opened the case and it was like in movies where they open treasure and there's just light. It was absolutely stunning. The purple sparkle was truly beautiful. I picked it up and strummed it, in perfect tune. Action was beautifully low and intonation was spot on. This guitar is a masterpiece, and I'm sure the only thing better is the ESP Japan version. I will have one, one day. I am curious as to the finish type used on the purple sparkle model (e.g. nitro, poly, etc). If anyone knows it will be useful information. 10/10 guitar, next on the buying list is the Snakebyte.
