I just got this last week. Just to clarify, this is the EC-1000T, and T stands for Traditional, which means like a Les Paul, it has 22 frets (vs 24 frets on other EC models) comes with Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro pickups in bridge and neck (not EMG) and is the full thickness of Les Paul, and unlike the other EC models, has no contours or beveling on back of body (like Les Paul) so it's a heavier guitar vs the other EC models. I love it. Awesome quality, sound, slimmer neck, and plays like a dream. The flame top is gorgeous, and the warranty is very nice. They don't make this model/color combo in 2012, just black or white, so if you're into the flamed cherry sunburst look, pick this up while supplies last. You will not regret it. I have been enjoying this guitar and it's fun fun fun to play. Way to go LTD!

I did not buy my guitar from Amazon. This is a classic guitar. I really like the ESP neck carve. It is not the typical Gibson/Epiphone boat contour. It is made in Korea. FWIW, in my experience, MIK>>>>MIM and sometimes > MIA. The SD Alnico IIs are wonderful warm pups that let the amp sing. That said, if you have cruddy amp, well, your tone will suffer with this guitar. This guitar will bring out the best and worst of an amp. The ESP ECs have the SD 59/JB combo. This is a better high gain combo, but not to my tastes. If you want classic old school LP-like tones and like a more modern neck, well this is THE guitar (and pickups).

I own a Gibson Les Paul Traditional Pro, two Fender strats and two ESP guitars including this ESP LTD EC-1000T/CTM in faded cherry sunburst. My favorite guitar among them all is this ESP - the reason is in the neck. The neck plays so easy and fast given it's shape - it's a pleasure play and I play best with it. The tone with the Seymour Duncan pickups is really terrific as well. The materials and quality of this guitar are equal to my Gibson Les Paul; although the ESP stays in tune longer than the Gibson. I think the figure and looks of the flamed maple top compares best to the higher-end Gibson Les Pauls. At half the price of what my Gibson cost - this guitar and the rest of the ESP line is really worth checking out.
