The ESP Guitar Company

I have one, it's amazing. for the price, it's a super comfortable guitar, killer aesthetic, perfect for riffing. I play death metal in D standard, it holds pitch perfectly and has a powerful sound, my second guitar, I love it, I will never let it go.

This is the first time purchasing an ESP/ltd guitar at this level.  Due to my previous experiences with Ltds in the in the range such as my EC-401QM and two EC-1000s and the quality being beyond superb, I was sorely disappointed in the quality control of this guitar even at such a low price point as this guitar was purchased to be a mod platform for a specific purpose. Chips in the fretboard, the bridge is bottomed out and still has an action that is way to high to be called a moderately playable action even with a visibly large neck angle in its pocket.  The string retaining ferrules on the back are pressed in at varying depths.

    The finish on the body and back of the neck were very good and the neck, aside from the aforementioned chips in the fretboard was a very comfortable and smooth feeling one.  
    
    All the issues, except for the bridge/action are easily corrected or to be expected in an extremely inexpensive entry level guitar.  However, left with the playability issues (a motivational killer for a beginner which this is priced for) will take either a neck pocket shim (least desirable solution, or the bridge studs to be removed, drilled deeper (and stepped to accommodate the top set into the body) to provide more adjustment to lower the action.

ESP/Ltd guitars are up there with the best out in the market, but this one fell short.  Sorry for the long review.  Photos available upon request as I’ve already dove into making this a monster!

I bought two of these, one Gunmetal Blue you no longer do, and a black one.  The blue I have kept completely stock, the black I have upgraded tremendously.  They are my main stage guitars.  I have an old 80's 400 series... these two inexpensive LTD's do not embarrass themselves in its company at all.  Defo ALWAYS look at what ESP are doing now, when I buy guitars.  Fantastic axes  -  no issues, nothing.  just great bang for my buck, and two guitars that punch way above their weight.  Further reviews and demos can be found on my Blacktooth Fox YouTube channel.  What can I say... Enjoy playing your own ESP / LTD!  If you sound rubbish, well, its unlikely to be the guitar at fault..!

Thank you for answer. I really enjoyed my f-50 I plan to switch the pickup for JH Signature pickup set. 

Hi! Can you tell me the difference between the F-50 and the F-10 please?
