    i got this guitar about 18 months ago.  Plays great, has a great rock tone but quite versatile. i cant tell you how many complements ive had about its looks but also how much people like to play it.  ESP makes great stuff!

      I was lucky enough to snag one of these and one of the EC-1000 QM Violet Shadow for Christmas last year, I cannot say enough good things about these guitars. Seriously, if you can swing it, buy one. You will not regret it. I've had 100's of guitars over the past 15 years, from all the major manufacturers and this LTD blows them all out of the water. The fit and finish is phenomenal. Seriously, amazing guitar.

        Dear ESP,

        is this model still being produced in left handed? This is basically my dream guitar ever since I saw one (righty), although at that time I couldn't fit one in my budget.

        However, not even the righty one is available at any local shop by now. (I'm from Budapest - Hungary)

        I there any way to get a deal on a brand new lefty at this point of time?

            Hello. Is the top finished with a transparent painting or matt?
