wwwdotcomdotnet Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 Hey everyone, after researching quite a bit I have become fairly enamoured with the ESP EC-1000, however I have not seen one in person. The only two ESP dealers around me dont stock that model, so I have no chance of ever trying it out before I buy it, which is a major no no for me. I could take the plunge and go with mail order and if its not up to snuff just send it back, but thats a huge pain Done it before, dont want to again. The only pictures I can find of the thing are from the front, and I would love to see the neck joint details as well as here any sort of review of the feel of the neck. Thanks guys.

radrobgray Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 has a standard set neck, gibson, style lp joint. another thing is i hated all that binding/purfling on the finger board, on the two e strings all you could feel was plastic. this may or may not bother you but i HATED it enough to not want one anymore.

Daniel Sorbera Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 I played one in sam ash once. I was less than impressed with the build quality and playability. But I only played one, so take that with a grain of salt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NICE! i have been dying for one of these for a long time! 450 is way cheap. i prefer the black cherry finish tho. but that classic black one looks almost exactly like a gibson... almost... actually i like them better than gibsons.
