My tools of the trade

Very cool guitars. One of my pupils just sold his Jem and bought a Jackson King v (I think that's what they're called). I must say tho, I cannot play those guitars sitting down. Seems to be no way of putting it on your leg like a normal shaped guitar. Anybody else find this with flying V and King V shaped guitars?

its real easy, just have to get used to it.
Put the V shape over your right leg, and let the fingers do the talking.

Nice Gear man! I have noticed that ESP has awesome overdrive abilities but when it comes to clean sound it might get tricky to get a nice sound out of them or is it just me?

Nergal

thanks dude! ummm not that i know of, ive played quite a few including my own(obviously) and all the clean tones ive heard were beautiful. Of course it also depends what amp you play thru, effects etc.... I play the ninja through my valbee for clean tones and man, do i get some nice cleans with that combination

The reason why I’m bringing this up is because one of my friends plays the ESP KeH-202 and he says is sound crap clean. But I think the problem is that he haven’t played around with his clean channel enough.

...been a fan of the Amott's (Michael actually has a younger brother, Chris, that does all the insane shredding on the older albums) way before I even touched a guitar. So oneday I phoned Music Connection in the Cape, and asked around about the LTD Ninja, and the guy said that he had sold an original ESP Ninja an hour earlier... Now I don't know where you live, or if you were the lucky guy, but you better be prepared to get your baby stolen haha! ?

Nice looking guitars ... ?

Sweet guitars dude.

Don't the 5150 matched cabs come with Celestion Vintage 30s? If i'm not mistaken, that would be the same speakers in the Mesa Dual Rec cab.

Cheers
