ESP 6 String LTD Phoenix Arctic Metal Electric Guitar, Snow White Satin, Right, (LPHOENIXARMSWS)

The guitar is amazing. It’s playability is great comfortable (for me anyway). It sounds really great as well. The guitar has unbelievable natural sustain (no amp). The one i got had a pretty good size chip in the paint and returned it. But aside from the damaged paint… it’s amazing guitar. Note spend the extra money and get the ESP phoenix case <- its a really great case. Sadly again mine arrived with damage.

If you're new to guitars, or buying as a gift for a kid who's kinda new to guitar, or if you're on a buget, LTD as a brand isn't a bad choice. In some cases, they can be surprisingly good in terms of value for what you paid.But not always.This guitar, the Arctic Phoenix, is an example of that. If you're a seasoned guitarist, you'll like the pickup. Otherwise, it's a ho hum guitar. The red one they have, looks more like a Firebird, that one is a much better guitar. A damned good guitar. It's a bit more money. But well worth it. ESP doesn't produce those guitars as ESP branded. Too bad too. I'm sure they'd be awesome.
