    I would say “made it this far” but it’s Rob Arnold and music related so I always watch every second! Enjoyed this one a lot, especially seeing that annoying issues happen to everyone, but you having the attitude of “I’ll figure it out” is how I aspire to handle situations like that instead of getting frustrated. It was cool to see how you figured it out, but I must say it’s a big disappointment from LTD. They’re a brand I’ve bought more than once and want to again…just hope they pay more attention to quality control. Overall a sick axe and great content as usual! 🎸🤘

    Great video. Remember, its never nitpicking if ya don't like something about an item you pay over 1k for. We work hard for our money and if we chose to get something, we try and pick something that we love cause to us, that's a lot of money to throw at something. :). As long as ya love it and can afford it, that's all that matters in the end. With the Battery compartment cover like it was, I would send back and get replacement. Thats too much money for something like that. Minor scratches here and there, i am ok with , but not that.

    Agree on the Korean vs Indonesian factory dilemma.
    I just bought a brand new EC-1000T in charcoal burst a few weeks ago. Absolutely gorgeous (you can see it on my channel). I ended up having to return it as there was part of the body that was missing paint. This was a Korean made model.
    It turns out that it’s now discontinued so I ordered a M-1000HT in its place and I also have an MH-1000 in black ocean on its way too.
    I don’t care where my next two are made. I just hope they come with better quality than my EC-1000T did.

    I am a very happy ESP and LTD owner, have an KH-2 custom shop (got for like $800 in 2008) an E-II M-II and a M-1000 SE which is a very unique model. I got an MH-1000ET a while back in White and it does have a fair amount of bad paint flaws. I still have the same opinions as you but Ive seen there are a few that will have issues but overall they are exceptional IMO

At home I use a IK multimedia tonex pedal! Sounds so good for a $400 pedal. They just added some more effects the profiling sounds beautiful. Very similar to your fender tone master.

    Made it to the end NP! Shit happens lol. When you took that back plate off I said to myself he doesn't need to take it off it's got the slots in there. I just built myself a Kelly Star from Jackson. They only made those two years I used a titanium block Don't know if you use brass or titanium blocks on your floyds? Right now you can get them from futon for $99 and for titanium that is a screaming deal They're normally almost 500! All right Rob see you on the next one. Maybe you can show us some amp settings I use the same amp you used to use. I use a 6505 Plus. I used to run a Marshall on one side and my Peavey on the other and I would run that in stereo and it was awesome. But the new band I'm in already had a rhythm guitarist. Anyways have a good one! ☮️🤘
