This guitar has amazing playability, a thin fast neck, and perfect metal tone. however, if youre looking for the M shape i would personally recomend the m-1000 over this guitar, you get a better guitar for less money. the sound of the m-1000 is not much different from this guitar as they're the same woods and construction, the playability and feel of the m-1000 is better, and in my opinion the m-1000 is cosmetically nicer.

I will own this guitar

I have to say....the first time i palyed a KHm2 was in the mid 90's...it blew me away because of the playability. I have had my own homebuilt strats and such since(i wasnt a huge fan of active pickups and 16rad necks)but i have come to the conclusion that this is the best playing guitar you can buy off of the rack. The full 16inch radius neck allows low action and the neck through joint allows total fret access. i am pretty sure there is differences between this and the standard m2's....especially the neck contour. Its a fast neck. Could be a tad thicker but that would be my only complaint. And its sharp looking to boot. A worthy axe that i hope to purchase.

Amazing Guitar

I have been playing guitar for over 2 years now, and playing this one for almost a year and a half, and it has not let me down. It is by far the best guitar I have played. The active pick ups are amazing, and once you get it tuned correctly it will not go out of tune. The neck has a great feel. Overall this is an amazing guitar. I recommend this guitar to any rock player, or any guitarist that is looking for an amazing guitar to play.

I was in NYC and checked out their samash, and thats when I came across this thing. The sound was good, Not the best I've heard. It plays well. My biggest concern is that at frets 22 and 23 the frets buzz and sound the same pitch... I played an H-1001 immediately after and it blew this away, and it didn't have the fret problems. I would recommend other ESP guitars such as the H-1001 and the MH-1000, same price but better quality.

Best guitar ever crushes ibanez dean and shecter combined. Floyd rose stays in tune really well when set up properly super fast neck with extra jumbo frets lets you completely shred like crazy. Its so awesome get one!
