LTD MH-327 (2nd take)

Was at Davis GMC today, had another go at LTD's MH-327. There's definitely some addiction when you start playing this guitar- it's the neck. It's got that perfect profile for some tasty shredding despite not being as thin & inviting as Ibanez's Super Wizard make. The other interesting aspect of this guitar is its body wood-pickups interaction; the inherent acoustics here are rather bland but it's a classic case of having the right pickups in there (Duncan's Hot Rails/ Custom 5) to get the job done. Some desirable notes separation could be heard here.

Expect some Gus G models from the upcoming Davis GMC ESP shipment.

leaf/tongue style headstock would be cooler for this axe...

ooh does it have a block heel or the modern ibanez style taper?

neither- it's a neck-through construction :-)

Addictive it is...already did my second take the other day. Would love to get this piece but not into whammy and i don't really need the extra frets.

i have limited preference for V-type guitars as they are a pain playing sitting down. the rest of the protruding shapes are fine when played sitting down- Xiphos/ SOB- no problems at all :-)
