I have the guitar for a couple months now and have to say i?m totally in L O V E with it. As a Metallica fan I always wanted a Kirk Hammet signature guitar and when i saw this purple one i knew this is going to be the one.
I have an LTD M400, a bit cheaper than this one and i have to say there is a noticable difference in the quality between these two. It feels so good to hold this guitar, you can really feel the quality, the rolled fingerboard edges, the floyd rose, the neck, the paintjob. Really nice.
And of course the neckthrough makes it really easy to play. The setup was very good, thank you Thomann!
The colour is a bit darker in the reality as on the pictures. Honestly, this sparkle finish is really sexy!
What should I say about the tone? The guitar has KH Signature EMGs, so you can imagine how it sounds. Big, agressiv, fat :)
And it came with an ESP hard case! Love it!
Cons:
- the back of the neck is painted, not as the ESP version. It doesn?t feel bad but personally I love to feel the wood
- it?s not the lightest guitar
