The Snow White goes to the Hot Southern European Summer
Chakall 13.07.2020
Beyond the obvious, that the guitar is stunning and beautiful, dont think that this Snow White is fragile or weak.
Pros:
-versatility: if you like to play clean sounds, funk,blues rock or metal this baby will not disapoint you
-neck:im in love... the u-shaped design offers confort and speed
(shredders alert)
-Sound/Electronics/Hardware: I put this three points connected, they all contribute for a well balanced guitar.The tone knob selector with the coil-split mode is a huge feature gives you a new level of versatility combined with the pickup selector switch and two powerfull humbuckers. The tone-o-matic and tailpeace bridge helps with string/tunning stability.
Cons:
-this Snow White baby is heavy! I recommend you to workout =) and invest in a good strap that offers stability but more important confort while playing.
Alert:
-This white finish is great but you need to keep it clean. Wash your hands before and after the "show", clean the body the neck... she diserve!!
Final words:
-This guitar compete in huge range of guitar in this budget(between 400€-500€) and she is one of the best . Im playing her for a week and what i love the most is the playability and versatility that she has, playing smooth Blues or a super heavy metal riff she got it, well. No regrets

Quite an instrument
Rockmanstar 05.11.2019
Quite a good instrument when you set it up properly. Right out of the box it looks like a total crap and here I will explain why.
First that catches your eye before you open the box are the damages on the guitar original carton box. I doubt it's somehow related to delivery because outer carton from Thomann looks great without any damages. Internal guitar carton in which the instrument was originally shipped from the ESP factory, in my case it has multiple scratches and a hole in the middle! Thanks God the instrument itself has no scratches or damages. The tone switch on guitar has made another hole from inside the box by its stick during a trip! Amazingly how ESP carelessly pack their products before shipping from factory.
The second I've noticed are rusty strings. This is the first time I see it on a new instrument which was by the way manufactured in 2019 (found by its serial number on a headstock).
And the final disappointment was a neck. There was no any neck relief. The neck was humped! There is a question to ESP - do you guys even check the instruments before shipping? And how do you store them and ship so the instrument got rusty strings and holes in a box?
After setting up the guitar properly it looks and sounds totally different.
The guitar is rather heavy (like Gibson IMHO). Action is good. Frets installed evenly. No dead notes at the lowest possible action.

I am not a very advanced player ,so i dont know if my opinion should be taken seriously into account ,but im in love with the guitar. I can play anything i want with it since it has a coil spil function but also has a very heavy tone. I believe you can use it for any style of music

Preis-Leistung super Auslieferungszustand eine Frechheit
Dom1982 22.03.2018
Zur Gitarre generell:
Wie die Überschrift schon sagt ist die Gitarre ein absoluter Preis-Leistungs-Hammer. Die Pickups haben einerseits richtig guten Druck für harte Metalriffs, andererseits wird über die gesplittete Singlecoilschaltung auch die sanfte fast "strattig" anmutende Seite bedient. Eine wirklich sehr gute Allround-Paula! Die Gitarre zeigt sich bisher sehr stimmstabil, auch wenn man die Saiten wirklich hart ran nimmt. Sie ist sehr leicht und hat dennoch ein wirklich gutes sustain. Der Hals ist sehr gut verarbeitet und lässt sich extrem schnell bespielen. Ich bin rundum sehr zufrieden mit dem Instrument.

ABER:

Der Auslieferungszustand:

Die Gitarre kam in einem Zustand bei mir an, den man gelinde gesagt nur als Frechheit bezeichnen kann. Der Halspickup war vollständig im Body versenkt und kaum zu sehen. Der Bridgepickup war ebenfalls viel zu niederig eingestellt, aber auf den ersten Blick wenigstens zu finden. Hierüber kann man evtl. noch hinwegsehen, da dass Problem schnell mit einem Schraubenzieher beseitigt werden kann und auch für den Laien schnell zu beheben ist. Schlimmer hingegen waren die Einstellungen von Hals und Bridge. Die Saitenlage war derart hoch, dass sich die Gitarre kaum bespielen lassen wollte. Es hat mich einen ganzen Abend gekostet die Gitarre über Halskrümmung, Bridgeeinstellungen und die damit verbundene Einstellung der Bundreinheit überhaupt erst einmal so einzustellen, dass der gelieferte Haufen Holz die Bezeichnung Gitarre verdient. Für einen unerfahrenen Laien, wäre dies wohl nicht so einfach möglich und der Besuch beim Gitarrenbauer des Vertrauens unausweichlich gewesen. Ein neues Instrument in einem derart desolaten Zustand zu erhalten hatte ich nicht erwartet. Nachdem die Einstellungen jedoch korrigiert wurden, kann ich abschließend das Instrument wirklich empfehlen!
