Minuses:
1. Numerous external defects
- poor polishing on the headstock
- under-painted on the headstock with white edging (a black stripe 1.5 centimeters long)
- carelessly installed nut
- on the back side of the fingerboard (below the inscription "DESIGNED BY ESP"), a black varnish was badly applied. The tree line is visible.
- the pick-up screws are carelessly screwed in and there are scratches on the plastic
- tailpiece in scratches
- uneven coloring of the fingerboard on the pickup selector switch side
- the black metal is not completely painted on the pickup selector switch
- roughness at the junction of the fingerboard and soundboard
2. On the official website ESP and at Thomann it is indicated that the fretboard is made of ebony - in fact, polysander. -____-
3. The antiphase is very-very insignificant (compared to the antiphase on my Gibson)
4. A lot of long wires for potentiometer, it was possible to make it more aesthetically pleasing.

Pluses:
1. Full shielding of the tool from the factory.
2. Fishman pickups
3. Locking machine heads
4. There was a set of two hex keys in the box
5. The sound resonates well on wood (without connecting to an amplifier)
6. Clear sound is well reproduced through the amplifier and on recording

Conclusion:
Delivery is fast. Thomann ignored my request to indicate a "fragile item" on the box. The box came in a sad condition, but the guitar was NOT damaged.
Guitar from ESP LTD for ~ $ 1000 will not be outwardly perfect. It feels rough and clumsy when assembling. There is a defective in terms of an incorrect fretboard.
I expected more from an ESP LTD guitar for ~$1000.

p.s. Thomann is by no means to blame, I'm writing about this guitar and the company that makes.
