I don't find this guitar comfortable to play sitting down. It doesn't rest comfortably and the point digs into my leg. Other than a few minor quality issues it's been good. I have owned it for nearly 10 years.
Hey Jeremy, I believe you may be playing seated with the instrument over your right leg, correct? I can see the horn of this instrument going into your leg if they are too close together in this position. I would recommend trying to play with this seated on your left leg, this will also help you stabilize the instrument better and will allow you easier access to the higher frets. Glad you have been enjoying your EC!
Thanks Carl. Yes I was playing with the guitar sitting on my right leg, it feels unnatural having it on my left leg as I have to reach much further on the lower frets. I now play standing which took some adjustment but I find it much better.
I picked this guitar up because I wanted something cheap to mod, and it sounded pretty good when I first got it, but I let it sit for about a week and didn't play it, and when I picked it up again it was really buzzy. Turns out, the nut wasn't glued down that well and came loose, but once I put a 0 fret and a new nut on there it sounded pretty good.
The LH 100 pickups sound pretty good too
Hi Devon, Thanks for sharing your comments and feedback here. Sorry that you experienced a problem but we're happy that you were able to get it solved. Glad you like the sound of pickups!
Does this guitar go out of frequently? I mean going out of tune like every 5 minutes or every bending the strings? But tuning the guitar up everyday for once not problem for me
Hi Joseph, For any guitar to stay in tune, the guitar must be setup properly with new strings, and the hardware such as tuning machines, neck plates and bridges must be secure to the body. Finally the strings need to be stretched , nut slots need to be smooth without the string catching in the slot. Once all those things are confirmed, the guitar will stay in tune better. SO we always recommend getting your guitar properly setup in order to function well. If your tuning is going out frequently then it tells me the something may be loose or your strings are old. Keep in mind, that some of the best guitars will go out of tune. It depends on how much you are bending the strings and how hard you are pressing the strings and hitting the strings.
When I bought my EC-10 from Guitar Center, It didn't come with a gig bag. Is that because the price was $20 cheaper than what's listed here? Is this normal?
I bought it online and they shipped it to me. The ESP box looked like it was unopened but I guess it could've been. Just wondering.
(Edit: Wanted you to know that I'm not complaining, I love the guitar. I am very happy with it and I don't need a gig bag. Just curious)
Hi Tyger, Thanks for posting your question here. Yes GC has their own exclusive version of this model which they sell and it does not come with a gig bag. Ours does come with a gig bag, but it is a very basic one. I would say that you might be happier in the long run to purchase a premium gig bag for transporting your guitar in case you want to. We're happy to hear that you like your guitar!
Is there a snow white variant of the EC-10?
Hi Isaac, Sorry there is not a SW version.
