I thought EMGs had no feedback at all (well almost)?

They're extremely powerful in output, so they actually give feedback easily. I think their design is meant to decrease hum and other small background noise, but the feedback is just a natural resultant of their high power, and it has to be fought off by different means (playing space, EQ, decreasing gain, etc etc...)

anyways, good review, i was getting tired of all 10 guitars and shit.

different color, but i think if you look around you can find a black one like the one in the review.
it may not have all the same little things like tuners, but no more than a couple hundred dollars will make it exactly the same. and that's all less than $1,000. that's definitely half of the approximately $2,350 that the reviewer spent on his. not disrespecting him, just showing people they can have basically the same guitar for much less, just with LTD on the headstock, not ESP

I have checked that guitar out in one of my local music stores and here in Aus it's $900, the vox night train which i think goes for like $500 in America goes for $1000 here, all those Dean dimebag guitars which go for about $1000 in america go for $2700 here in Australia

I would've chosen the natural wood finish. Anyway good review.

I think the natural wood is the LTD model and not the actual ESP.

And also, I actually bought this guitar in New Zealand but the Aussie dollar and NZ dollar are relatively the same. Overall I got a pretty good price. I've seen them go for more (native dollars!) on Ebay.

Also dude, my one isn't black, it's Snow White - UG just posted a photo of the black version. AFAIK the snow white ones are far rarer than the woodgrain or satin black ones.
