I recently decided to start looking for a new guitar.
Well GAS got the better of me once again! I had been getting that antsy feeling again and started looking at guitar offerings.
I started looking for a high end import, something with a hardtail (preferably a hipshot) and not a Tune-o-matic. All my guitars have Floyd Rose's and I never use them. I also really wanted something with locking tuners and I was really interested in the Fishmans.
I decided on the LTD M-1000HT in their "Black Fade" finish. Just like desert dweller in this thread https://www.metalmusicians.org/forum...07-ngd-esp-ltd . I've never had an LTD so I was very interested in trying one.
I got the guitar tonight. I'm very happy with the quality so far. No blemishes or flaws that I can find. Wow I love the neck on this guitar. It has a really smooth unfinished maple neck. It feels like its carved out of stone. Fretwork is all very nice. And I also wasn't sure about the poplar burl top, but I do like this top and am happy with it.
This is mean to be my main gigging guitar. Something stable and reliable. In the next week I plan on setting it up in C Std.

Beautiful guitar, congrats!!
. I'm liking everything about this guitar. I took a chance in that I've never played anything with a hipshot bridge before, but I am very happy and it's very comfortable to play. I'm trying to get used to the volume knob position, I normally move the volume knob as far away from my picking hand as possible but I'm making it work. Very fun guitar to play and I've been playing it a lot.
