NGD - ESP EX400bd - my fave new toy!


Hi all

Just received this from the bay - second hand - 8/10 condition. Only set me back £450 which is a steal - no-one else bid! Only had stock pics- none of the actual guitar but i took a chance, and looks i struck out with this one!

She plays a dream and has a fantastic sound, I know EMGs aren't everyone's cup of tea but these can really sing for some reason. Action is spot on, there barely any buzz even on the E (which I normally have problems with) but a quick setup should do the trick, and it plays like magic.

Minor issues - some concentrated buckle rash but looks it could be buffed out if i ever want to. Slight wear on the diamond plate above the pickups and a couple of dings on the corner - one has chipped away the finish and the other has just bust it. Overall nothing major, has a bit of character!

Gave the fretboard a bit of a clean as it was a bit gunky and got these inlays also from ****. Enjoy, lemme know what you think.

On a side note this is just a tide over until I can either get my hands on 1) Real EX MXII/EXP 2) 1984 gibson (yes THAT one) or 3) a custom built shamray. Have gone few a few guitars and this is the kind that just feel right.

Anyways enough chit chat here is some new(ish) guitar shots
