This guitar, even though it is not as described ( no marker on the 12th fret, and EC-1000 written on trust rod cover at head stock) is truly a beautiful looking guitar. Does not feel at all like the one I already have. They are refunding all of the purchase price. I am satisfied with the transaction, but wanted this guitar so bad.

I had to take it to Guitar Center because it came stock with .9 strings and one string was missing and it needed a set-up, especially after I changed the strings to tens, for heavy metal. Note to self, always buy instruments from music stores. Otherwise, the guitar is beautiful, not a ding or chip anywhere. I got the black with gold hardware, the feel/action is awesome, but that might be Guitar Center's intervention, the guitar, though, is very pleasing to the eye!

This guitar is an exceptional value. I sold my 2011 Gibson SG because after 7 years, it just wouldn't play right. I even had it set up twice. After reading many reviews I thought I'd give the EC-1000 a try. Very glad I did. It plays better, and stays in tune better. Beautiful craftsmanship, sounds perfect. Love the locking tuners and the TonePros bridge. This thing plays like a $2k guitar!!

i already had an EC 256, and i liked the thin profile neck that's why i wanted to upgrade to a EC 1000, just wow, its a beautiful guitar, sound much better than the ec 256, it has better access to the high frets, totally worth the upgrade

I bought the ec 1000 a couple of weeks ago and I gotta say, I'm crazy about this guitar. The black finish and gold hardware on it makes for a beautiful look and the abalone on the inlays and around the body and fret board looks awesome. The emg pick ups are great for long sustains, punchy palm muting, and shrieking pinch harmonics. I don't know why people complain you can only play metal with these pick-ups though. Sure, they're really good for that, but they also have beautiful clean tones and even manage some decent classic rock or bluesy tones as well. If I really want to be a stiffler about my more vintage tones then I will use my strat, but this guitar usually sounds fine for those as well it's just not a blues machine or anything. I also love the playability of this guitar. Shredding up and down the neck feels so natural and easy, I just want to do it all day when I pick this up. Hands down this is probably one of the best modernized, metallised LP kind of copies you can get for such a cheap price. I highly recommend it!!
