@@Journeyman2585So you’re saying buy the budget guitar, shell out extra money, time and effort to upgrade the guitar so it’s no longer a budget guitar? Why not just simply buy the next tier up of guitar from the manufacturer then?
@@hqrueck the pickups you'll get in most mid range guitars aren't good enough to stay anyway. If you're gonna buy good pickups, mights as well spend less on the body. You can get nice locking tuners and a good bridge for not that much. I'm not gonna spend 600-700 on a guitar I'll end up upgrading anyway.
I was just telling my friend like yeah I think imma look for a fender stratocaster they were like 300 euros back in the day and then I checked the prices I was like holy f
But the eii is still a budget ESP. that's why it doesn't say ESP on the headstock. Only the USA models get the ESP logo on the headstock. 2-3k is oddly the middle of the road now.
I have an EII, 6 string with original Floyd Rose. It is worth it. You can feel it. Pricey, but you're getting looks, feel, tone, it's just great. I also have an LTD, which is great, but there is a difference.
@@Journeyman2585 you are right! Since then, I got rid of it. That did really bother me and it didn't play as well as a few others, when I was doing comparisons.
I just got my gear4music guitar but i have a issue. I have tuned the guitar and i have a wierd buzzing sound thats one the six and fift sring. And one other thing. Why does my guitars electrical abilitys not work😅
1:26 I guess if you making review in guitar, you MUST know how to play it. It's catastrophic, blood from ears. You need guitar teacher. 1:34 - finger boises, typical beginner mistake.
I’ve had multiple ltd guitars. Don’t get the 200 series. Imo, don’t get anything under the 500-600 line. Complete junk that you’ll want to replace within a month.
Wow u went from the M-100 to the M-1000 nd the E2s, missing every model in between..200s,256, 300s 401s nd even the Black Metal series..maybe next time huh🤔
Wow, these guitars does not sound that good. I would look at other, better brands and guitars with better value for this kind of money. Ibanez & PRS *Winkle*
I think it has to do with the player. I have an ESP and it's the greatest guitar I've ever played (and I've owned PRS, Gibson, Jackson, Fender, D'Angelico). But the sounds in this video are just horrible...
@@pluviophilius2354 That may be, still if you look at LTD in later years they do not provide the same specs for the money as some of the others brands anymore. Before you could get nice pickups and neck through body guitars well under 1000€ from LTD but not any more. They put their own crap pickups in guitars up to 1000€ now, Schecter is another brand that used to bring good specs for the money but not anymore. Solar guitars, Kramer and PRS for example has better specs and sound nowadays for the money. I am not saying ESP/LTD has not got good guitars though, they have amazing guitars, just not guitars that I can afford anymore.

I friggin love my LTD. I have the F 1001 andromeda and it’s just an incredible rig. So much respect for that brand.
guitar prices are way out of control now. My guitars that I bought only few years ago doubled in price! Insane! WTF can pay these sky high prices?
Cheap guitars are way better quality though. You can get a 300 dollar guitar, upgare tuners and pickups, and you have a machine.

Maybe you bought an acoustic guitar, you need to buy one of the electric ones to get electrical abilities
Would an ESP LTD MH200 (year: 1999) be a good purchase for £280?

Ibanez is garbage.
Put any pickup through an amp modeler or axe fx over a tube amp amd it will sound refined.
