Alder body > Basswood
A real EMG > ESP copy
Neck-thru > bolt-on
OFR bridge > licensed FR bridge
Ebony fretboard > rosewood
Grover tuners > standard ESP ones

The 600 is well worth the extra cost in every way. The 200 is cut back in every single department

Pretty much, although Basswood vs. Alder is more of a personal preference.

I know it's personal preference between alder/basswood, but as a signature model.. alder is what alexi uses.

Reliability & Durability: This guitar is fantastic for Live playing. Alexi is constantly on tours with his ESP signatures so they were made to be durable and take a beating. Hardware has lasted and will last for a long time. Strap buttons are solid and can hold a good amount of weight. I've used it at gigs before without backups but with and SG in a different tuning. And I'm sure that the finish will last and wont wear off. // 10

Alexi does tour with ESP but thats not anywhere near the quality of those he uses...im sure within time you will cures your alexi-wannabe-200 to oblivion.

I wouldn't go around telling everyone you've been playing since you were four, on account of you have hardly any motor skills or coordination at that age. Unless, uh, you define "playing" as "falling on top of a guitar" or something. Y'know. Along those lines.

I like alder wood. I know the 600 is superior, but I've always had alder-bodied guitars. It's not as dense as basswood, so it's got a brighter tone. It's ubiquitous on Fender instruments.

Why would you buy a guitar that screams "METALL!!!!" in looks for "softer" music? To be a smartass or something?

Actually, he uses 4 for live preformances, and has used the same 4 since he had them made after his JAcksons got stolen. In addition, he uses the Japanese made ESP signatures, not the American made LTDs. Totally opposite ends of the spectrum in terms of build quality and durability. Not to mention price...

The reason people are commenting here is that youre acting like a wannabe that will lick everything with alexis name on it. As for me...ive said what i needed to say. A RR3 would have been a better guitar for the money. Its not even more expensive! LTD FLOYDESP EMG COPIES! Get my point? And i havent even gotten to the point that theyre made in japan and LTD in korea and that makes jackson better quality. but congratz on your guitar.

Only a strat or tele? A good fender strat or tele would OWN the shit out of your LTD man! That wasnt wisely said. IF IT WAS SQUIER...then the LTD would be better and ofcourse some cheapeass fenders suck too. Youre just acting like a fanboy who likes to have alexis name sticked to the headstock thats the point. RR3 is same price and it has much better components overall and is a better guitar for the same price. Congratz for guitar nevertheless. And correction: It doesnt SUCK...its just bad for the price

That wasnt so smart post. The licensed floyd and OFR thing aint taste...its the thing that licensed crap out and go out of tune. And they aint even EMGs thats the bashing...they are copies. And as for active vs. passive...if you get thin sound you must suck at EQ:ing...im sorry but ive owned both and i do like actives more coz of the increased gain and sustain but sure it has bottom end weight point. Just for the record...the last LTD floyd rose i had was TOTALLY crap...and its the exact same one thats on the alexi-200. Other than that youre right...but check your facts and be a bit more realistic.

It kept crapping out while playing and shit. Really hard to set up too! Well I have randall tube halfstack and my EMG 81 sounds great for what i play so i dunno. I just happened to like the RR3 much more than the LTD i had and that was also of the Alexi laiho signature series but limited sales in finland only. It had LFR,2 EMG HZ,alder body,rosewood fretboard. I put a EMG Afterburner on it and hated it. The owner that has it now likes it i guess but the neck just turned me off plain and simple. Also the quality of the building was not really good. Then i have tried one alexi-200 i hated it...clumsy and disgusting to play but it is possible that was the bad setup at the shop and sticky neck and bad action xP

You just need to EQ it right. I play those 3 bands too and i bet the SD/EMG 81 will fit them with no problems. Ofcoures you wont get exactly alexi tone since he has his expensive rack so that wont be a problem.

A) It isnt cheap; its just for people who dont want to spend a thousand dollars on a guitar when they could have a similar model for a lot less
B) The sound range isnt limited. If you mean limited by number of frets then you r wrong, and if you mean limited by the pickup then you r wrong again; its not "illegal" to change the pickup...

A)Not true http://www.thomann.de/fi/esp_ltd_alexi_2...
http://ww w.thomann.de/fi/jackson_rr3_randy_rhodes.htm
50 bucks aint that bad and since thomann changed prices im SURE you could get it for 500 where you live.
B)He meant the shitty pickups and the fact tehres ONLY ONE...not the number of frets. THat actually made me laugh. No its not illegal but changing to a better bridge humbucker wont give oyu wider soundworld. Only make the current one better. The RR3 has 2 pickups which both are the best tehre is in its kind while the alexi-200 has 1 pickup that aint EVEN A REAL EMG. 50 bucks while a set of those SDs would cost well over 100 bucks. shit the same you still have only one humbucker.
C)Yes it does! In terms of build quality AND components. I mean hear yourself! Im sure you dont play the 24th fret that constantly if even at all...Alexi can go in a ****ing solo there 1 or 2 times and thats little and theres something called bends. The Jackson LFR is superior to any LTD LFR shit...there aint only 1 kinds of LFR...Jackson just makes them better and end of ****ing story. so basically you just bought a overall worse guitar for 2 more frets. What you have to understand is that theres a huge amount of difference in build quality AND components and the LFR are made by different people to different guitars so it does make a big difference. Im sorry if i sound like an ass but im just clearing up facts here.

The 600 is well worth the extra cost in every way. The 200 is cut back in every single department

ok, everyones already said the alder/basswood preference thing, the emg might be real but its still passive and there forth not much better, ill give it the original floyd rose those r very nice, ebony fretboard is still another personal preference thing and whats hte point in haveing locking tuners if u have a locking brigde? honestly....dumbasses

The RR3 may also be better.

But still, you can't have a go on a kid for loving his guitar.

I own a RR1, RR5 and a RR24. I truthfully enjoy myself most on the Alexi 200, not because it's the best guitar in the world, but it feels like ME.

I mean, if everyone thinks the Gibson SG is one of the best guitars in the world, why don't you see every guitarist playing it?

If the RR1, RR3 or RR5 is so good, why don't you see Steve Vai, Satch, or even Synyster Gates playing it?

Everyone has their own guitar. Doesn't matter if it ain't the perfect quality guitar, it's just YOU.

So let down easy on the kid, no?

Would you tell a beginner to buy a RR1?

Would you tell a professional to buy a cheap Fender rip off?

the 600 version blows this one away.

The 600 is well worth the extra cost in every way. The 200 is cut back in every single department

Dude, your a f***ing twat, if we could afford the 600, do you think we'd buy the 200?

well i have to say i like the 200 model though the 600 is undoubtebly better, and i own a RR3 and i love the neckthrough but what makes me giggle like a giddy little school girl is the cutaway on the 200 model, i love it. and to be honest i prefer passive pickups, but thats just personal preference and i know im gonna get bashed for sayin it. but common guys we're all entitled to our own opinion and there is absolutly no reason for you to inflict it upon someone else when they have different tastes.
well this is a great buy in my opinion, but do research before you buy it. and definitly dont buy it if this is your first time with a trem on a guitar cuz this will lead to numerous headaches.

WTF! A good strat or tele would totally own the shit out of the LTD...its just not good for CoB kinda music. The reason people are commenting here is that youre acting like a wannabe that will lick everything with alexis name on it. As for me...ive said what i needed to say. A RR3 would have been a better guitar for the money. Its not even more expensive! LTD FLOYDESP EMG COPIES! Get my point? And i havent even gotten to the point that theyre made in japan and LTD in korea and that makes jackson better quality. but congratz on your guitar.
I have an All American strat with custom coiled humbuckers and a very tight TremKing trem and it is Amazing for CoB music it just doesn't have the look. I got the alexi-200 a week ago and put in an EMG 81 for and extra $99. It sounds just as good as my $1500 superstrat and it cost me $560 after the pickup.

P.S.: in terms of jackson vs. esp ltd: I just hate the jackson headstocks, they're simply far too angled and I love the ltd headstocks, so esp ltd 1 jackson

it's all about personal preference

But, I think this guitar offers a lot of potential:
I only use the bridge pick-up for a start;
I have never found a neck-thru that I have liked before;

For this spec, the "equivalent" (by which, I mean 1 pickup) Rhoads (RR24) is around £700-800, whereas the Alexi is between £300-400. It is a massive difference;

I don't like the Floyd Rose, I much prefer Ibanez Edge;

Unless the guitar is fitted with them stock, I really can't be bothered with active pickups. I think it is a bit too much of a risk to route them out for the battery, when it won't necessarily sound how you want it to.

I think that this guitar can be a great "platform" guitar. And the modifications I would do (Ibanez Edge £120-ish, EMG FHZ-H2 or FHZ-H4 £80) would take me to roughly £600. Which is still £200 less than the RR24.

All these things are a case of personal preference, and I'd much rather get a cheaper guitar like this, and modify it to my ideal rather than pay more for a guitar that doesn't fit it.

I am not at all saying that the Rhoads is a bad guitar, because they aren't. I have played the RX10D, the RR3 and the RR24, and they all have their ups and downs.
It just depends on the player
