How EBMM Compares to LTD/ESP (this needed it's own topic...really)

[OrangeChannel]

how would you compare ebmm to esp ltd that are in the same price ranges?

No comparison. Those LTD's / ESP's = Limited Tone Distractions / Extra Strat Parts.

Step up to the plate and play an American made hot rod and not something thought up in the rice paddy.

I know this sounds callous, but I went to the local Sam Ash for a few odds and ends the other night and heard the uninformed clerk's attempt at selling an LTD to an obviously more uninformed consumer.

Here's their convo:
Clerk "These LTD's are bullet proof"
Sheep: "Why is there a crack in the finish thru to the wood then?"
Clerk: "Ummm....sometimes people drop them, so umm if you want this one...it's sticker or lose it."

The other thing that made me cackle (out loud to the dismay of the young seller)was when the clerk told the guy the EMG HZ's were fully active but they don't require a battery.

Dude also advised me that MusicMan guitars aren't popular in the store since they're really fickle and don't stand up to road wear since they don't have finished necks like the LTD's do and people don't like names like Luke on the stock.

Idiot!

That means more EBMM's for us to enjoy!

Yeah I think the idiocy of most of these dealers is unparalelled. So yeah...

That clerk isn't the sharpest tool in the shed. How dare he talk down to MM guitars.
