ESP LTD F50 Electric Guitar Review

ESP LTD F50 Review

Here's my review of the ESP LTD F-50 electric guitar.

First of all here are the features. They include bolt-on construction, 25.5 in. scale, dots inlay with model name at 12th fret, ESP LH-100 set pickups, agathis body, maple neck, rosewood fretboard, volume, toggle, and tone controls, black hardware 24 XJ frets, string-thru-body design and a tune-o-matic bridge. This ESP F-50 electric guitar is available in black and black cherry finishes. My favorite is black cherry. I like its body shape. It may look aggresive, but at the same time it's sleek and stealthy.

It is sold online for about $220. This is a deal. Value for money. Sure there are many better ESPs out there, but for the price this guitar is worth it. It beats many guitars that costs much more. If you're on a tight budget, this is certainly one guitar to consider. Great for beginners as well, or as a secondary guitar.

I like the three way switch, tone and volume control on the ESP LTD F50 electric guitar. Great way to get the sound you really want. Wish it had a whammy bar.

If you're looking for a lower end model guitar with a punchy tone and lots of distortion, this one will do. I tried it without a distortion pedal and was amazed at how it could squeal. But this guitar doesn't only sound good dirty. Don't let the looks fool you. It has a great clean sound as well.

I would have loved to get a Floyd with this one but I guess for the price you can't expect too much. One problem I have this guitar is the pickups. They sound fairly good but are not all that.
If you buy this guitar you may need to change the pickups. How about some EMGs. Grover tuners would have been great.

I believe it's definitely worth every cent. It's a great guitar and very cheap. What more can you ask from a guitar in this price range?
