LTD’s DX range allows for musicians to get access to a high-quality guitar at a price far less than its impressive features would imply. The TE-200DX is an excellent and very affordable option for getting the classic LTD TE shape with features for contemporary guitarists. These include a lightweight and comfortable poplar body with an elegant birdseye maple top, and a roasted maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, offset dot inlays, and 24 extra-jumbo frets. The TE-200DX also features a hardtail bridge, black chrome hardward, black body binding, and a tiltback headstock. The TE-200DX includes a set of our acclaimed ESP LH-150 humbucking pickups with matching black chrome covers in the bridge and neck positions, providing punchy, great tone for all genres of music. You also get the flexibility of single-coil tones controlled by a push-pull switch on the tone knob.

Out of the box:

  1. Rough fret edges.
  2. Action way too high.
  3. Low quality tuners.
  4. A couple of hex keys: one for the truss rod and the other for God knows what. Probably intended for adjusting the bridge saddles but not the right size.

So, ESP/LTD, do you feel that is what customers should expect for €500? It is not a lot of money but it is still money.
