My New Metal Guitar

Posted by Jamen316 from Philly on Jan 19, 2010

Experience w/product: I own it

Reviewer's Background: Active musician part time

Reviewer's Play Style: Rock, metal, blues

I recently took a chance by buying this guitar online from this site but I am glad I did because this has become my new metal guitar. I have long been a Gibson LP man and while I could play some decent chops on my Studio, I was really looking to get some active EMG's and a Floyd Rose which can be rare in most Gibson LP's. I played the regular ec-401 in stores and felt confident enough to order it. The neck is thin for shred but beefy enough to play some chordsand riffs a la Metallica. The Floyd Rose Special may be a budget version of a FR but still pull great dives off while keeping it in tune (which is not something I can say about all locking trems). The simpler finish versus the ec-1000 is actually in my opinion more elegant than the overdone abalone trimming on the 1000. Grover tuners are a nice plus. Just beware when comparing 401's like I did of how different the 401VF was, which is more Gibson like, but not what I was looking for. I am really happy to have gotten ahold of this guitar for such a sweet price.
