Comments about ESP M-350:
HZ's are OK but do not have great definition at full drive. Single coil has 60Hz buzz (reason for 7 rating). Very versatile set-up. Will change single coil to Seymour Duncan Hot Rail to get full benefit of configuration with no buzz.
Quality of ESP M-350:
Comments about ESP M-350:
Low action, no string buzzes from perfectly polished extra-jumbo frets. Excellent finish and workmanship.
Overall Opinions of ESP M-350:
Pros:
Price from Musicians Friend was the reason for trying a Korean made ESP. This guitar was less expensive than Carvin (SC90), Epiphone (G-400), Kramer (Baretta FR404s), Spirit-Stienberger (GT-Pro), Ibanez (RG-585), Gibson (71' SG-STD) I've owned, yet has better action and very tolerable tone for sustain based shred.
Cons:
Buzzy single coil has got to go.
