Re: Esp LTD M202 vs DXMG

Does anyone have any pictures of themselves or someone else playing one so I can see how it looks? Any customized pics of some? Ive mostly seen the same digital picture all shops have.

Re: Esp LTD M202 vs DXMG

I've played a bunch of both. The LTD's have a crappy feel to me. The trems aren't all that smooth and the necks don't feel all that great. I had a GL500K Kamakazi copy. It came with a Duncan Design HB103B in the bridge that is alot like a Seymour Duncan Distortion. I put an actual SD Distortion in it and it made no difference. I worked on the bridge until my fingertips bled and it didn't make any difference. The neck was like a log, but that wasn't all that bad really. I got it because I wanted to be just like George Lynch. LOL. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] I put the HB102B from my Jackson DK2 in it and it was pretty darn close to the GL tone. I didn't want to get rid of it, but I got a better deal on something else. I had my Jackson DK2 at the same time and could compare them. The DK2 blew it away period. Better feel, better trem and way better tone. As a matter of fact, I have at least 10 different guitars since I bought my DK2. The DK2 stays everytime. Now I have a Charvel and a Fender. The DK2 just plain blows em all away except for the Charvel. It has it's own purpose. Jackson/Charvel products are hard to beat. The imports are a shinning example of killer value. My next few guitars will be Jacksons and a gunmetal grey DXMG is on that list. You have made the right choice going with Jackson.

There was a guy (don't remember who) that posted pics of his modded DXMG a while ago, he had done several different mods, very cool ones too! [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Maybe someone else is able to help you out with the address for the webpage that he uploaded the pics on. [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]
