  • In this video, Harry pulls another gem from his vault of guitars. The ESP Explorer in black! This one is not Hetfieldized surprisingly, but we all know Papa Het plays 'em so Harry had to have it. Must be nice...

      I'm planning on selling my old white ESPwith an "EET FUK" spray painted on it. I bought it back in 87 but there's only one problem. After using it so much it turned almost yellow.

      GrowMasterGeneral it’s not about “electricity” it’s about the connection. A solder connection is constant while a clip connection is convenient, oxidation can build up in there and the connection is never 100%

    • @GrowMasterGeneral
      @GrowMasterGeneral 5 років тому +3

      @@dtuning What do you think is going through the connection? Spoiler alert: it's electricity. If a connection is "never 100%" then that means the signal will go in and out and will be very noticeable. And the idea that it's never 100% is bullshit, the connection is just as constant. As for "oxidation can build up", it would need to be severe before it would ever disrupt the connection. Oxidation build up can occur on any connection, soldered or not. The idea that quick connects changes the tone of a guitar is nothing more that false bias.

    I didn't know there is an e.x.p with set neck. Nice catch. Btw, on the back of the headstock it has "Custom Shop" or "Custom Guitar" logo?
    And I think that it's a shame and a waste to keep guitars inside their cases for that long time.. It wasn't made to be locked down. Play it, enjoy it.
    My 94 Esp explorer was also in someone's case for 15 years and not even at his own house but his mother's, and I'm glad I got to but it from him and let it see the outside if the case. These explorers are so goddamn good that it's a crime not to play them.

    Is it not true Esp start to do bolt on and after they do set neck... They start with the mx.220 copying the white gibson used by James...and was set neck. After they do the mx.250, first proto in 1990/1991 for Hetfield and they was all set neck.

    I know this is a pretty necro'd video, but there aren't many people I can ask 🤣 How do these compare to a good Gibson Explorer?
    I FINALLY scored one of these and am cautiously excited for it to arrive. It is a 1992 bolt-on model w/Floyd Rose. I'm curious what to expect, and I am trying to be realistic. I'm an owner of 3 limited-run Gibson Explorers (2011 Vampire Bloodmoon, 2014 Blackout, and 2014 Lzzy Hale white), a hand-made custom Ken Lawrence Explorer clone (made by a luthier in the Netherlands, EASILY the equal of all 3 Gibo's), and a surprisingly well made Epiphone EX 84 (playability-wise, tied for the best with the custom KL clone...tonewise, not close at all).
    I don't want to expect too much, but at the same time these are ESP custom guitars which, as I understand it, are some of the finest in the world.
