This is a Korean made, 24.74" scale guitar. Its a Les Paul style guitar. It has master tone and volume and a 3 position switch. The stock pickups are an EMG 81 in the bridge and an EMG 60 in the neck.
It features a mahogany body and neck with an Ebony fretboard.
The stock hardware is really nice. The tuners are actual Grovers which is a nice touch. The bridge is tune-o-matic with a string-thru setup.
This was a limited edition guitar, so there are no fret markers besides the model number at the twelfth fret. The finish is satin black, which is gorgeous.
The neck is the ESP thin u, which at this point is my favorite neck of all time. Its the perfect thickness and shape for me, and the neck feels a little wider than my friends EC1000, which I like. The satin finish feels amazing. It also has 24 jumbo frets.
UTILIZATION
There is a cut away on the back to allow for easier upper fret access, but when it comes down to it this has a traditional style Les Paul neck joint, so there are some limitations to the upper fret access. But if you play Les Pauls you know to expect this, and its not bad at all.
My EC500 has a really nice weight to it and resonates beautifully. Its awesome. It also is really balanced.
This guitar plays like a dream. The neck is really stable, I've only had to tweak the setup once in the 10 months I've owned it. My action is set silly low and there is no buzz across the entire neck.
SOUNDS
The stock pickups are EMGs, which personally I don't like, but a lot of people do. The sound great for pretty much anything, and really shine with high gain settings. The EMG60 is one of the 2 EMGs I actually really like. Great, liquid lead tone, and really nice cleans. Its great.
Since I mostly hate EMGs I pulled them out and dropped passive pickups in it. I've had the same set of pickups in 3 different guitars and they sound best in this one. I love it.
OVERALL OPINION
This guitar was well worth the money I paid for it and if you can find one I seriously recommend picking it up. My EC500 plays and sound better than most the high end guitars I've put it up against. Its an amazing instrument.
Since they're rare, my EC500 is the only one I've ever played, but I've owned LTDs from the same year as these and they've all been great instruments. Seems like it was a good year for LTDs.
So overall, this is an amazing guitar with a unique style and an amazing neck. Seriously, I don't a reason you shouldn't buy one.
