seymour duncan jb and jazz set pickups are great for any rock or metal style you can get crunch out of almost any amp.the pickups are simple but compliment the sound and guitar exeptionly well.

the only knock on this guitar is there is no case included in the deal,that sucks.but you can buy the custom case just about anywere else.I give this a 9 anyway because of the flushmount locking straplocks you can really thank dave mustaine for that one.I don't know anyone who offers that.and of course the tone pros2 and sperzal tuners A++

first off its neck through and string through body thats quality in itself. and with the hardware thats already included A+ obviously esp version outdoes ltd by a long shot but this is very quality to say the least.the body and neck is korean or made in japan. but hardware usa all the way.for what youre paying it doesnt get much better than this guitar really!!

let me assure you this was well thought out by esp and dave mustaine himself. he's the only reason this V was started again by the company and they chose the right guy to compliment them.he could have picked anyone and when you purchase this beauty you will no why.

no need so far

well I dont look for sex appel in objects.but if you have a kick ASS appeal then this one does the job baby.Vs rule metal anyway.
