Another terrible experience with esp guitars
Today I received my new ESP LTD Arrow 1000 EverTune. I am very disappointed with the quality of this guitar, and honestly with the quality of ESP guitars in general.
This is my second attempt to buy an ESP LTD Arrow. A year ago I bought an Arrow Black Metal, and I returned it immediately.
This guitar has several problems:
Light polishing marks or stains all over the body. The guitar has a glossy finish, so they are very noticeable.
The tuning machines on the headstock are installed crooked.
The pickups are not mounted straight.
And there is no grounding in the electronics.
So, a guitar that costs around $1,800 came out of the box with obvious cosmetic defects and is completely unplayable because of the electronics.
The Arrow Black Metal I bought last year was no better, maybe even worse. The neck had been painted black (I have no idea why). There was a chip on the fretboard, and the Floyd Rose 1000 would not return to its neutral position after use, so it would go sharp or flat. On top of that, I could not even plug in a guitar cable because the output jack had been installed at the wrong angle.
I don't know why the quality is so bad. I bought both guitars with a very big discount from Thomann. Maybe they were from a bad production batch, or maybe the quality of ESP guitars has really gone downhill.
I have owned LTD guitars since 2008, including a Viper-50 and an M-1000. Both the cheap and the expensive one were excellent and had no problems at all, unlike these last two guitars.

Świetne wiosło
W moim przypadku gitara dotarła bez większych wad a to ponoć nie jest takie oczywiste nawet w tej klasie, u mnie drobmostka polegająca na poluzowanej śrubce gniazda jack, za cene w promocji warto zaryzykować. Cienkie struny w standard E nawet dawały radę ale u mnie po paru dniach wymiana na 10-52 i strój standard D, zszedłem z akcją strun do 1,25-1,75 bez większych regulacji gryfu, właściwie tylko regulacja evertune - w cenie promocyjnej fishmany i evertune, stalowe progi to jest nie do pobicia, co więcej kolega na thomann day kupił również jedną, nie zgłosił mi żeby było u niego coś nie tak, zakładam że jest ok a niedługo robimy porównanie naszych egzemplarzy jak cos wyjdzie dopisze, największą wada ale nie samej gitary to brak dedykowanego case, gitara jest duża i ciężko dobrać do niej case, bede za pare dni testował zamiennik zobaczymy czy spasuje bo oryginał jest w zaporowej cenie

Metalowa bestia z najlepszym mostkiem i idealnie czystym brzmieniem
Ta gitara to świetny produkt z serii 1000. Most Evertune robi robotę i jest najprzyjemniejszym i najlepszym mostkiem na jakim miałem okazję grać.
Gitara ma wszystko czego potrzeba do łojenia - odwrócony headstock, srebrne "zęby rekina" na podstrunicy i klucze Grovera.
Jakość wykonania i komponentów jest naprawdę dobra (pomijam delikatne błędy lakieru na bindingu gryfu) - klasyczna jakość Koreańskiego LTD.
Gitara jest lekka i dobrze się układa podczas grania. Ogólnie jest to jedna z najlepszych opcji w tej kategorii.
