ESP KH Ouija Electric Guitar black

Selling ESP KH Ouija Electric Guitar black ！！！

Nevada, NV (prHWY.com) December 20, 2012 - The ESP KH Ouija guitar is Korean made. alder bodied, maple neck-thru with a 24 fret rosewood board with EMG's, the bridge is an 81 and 60 in the neck with a Floyd Rose 1000 trem. It is strung with 9-42 gauge strings.

I play through a Laney LV 300Twin 120 watt, 3 channel tube enabled combo using various pedals such as a Bad Monkey, Clapton Crossroads and a Boss ME-6.

First impressions of this guitar was how nice it sounded acoustically. The guitar is quite loud (for a solid body unplugged!) yet very articulate for the want of a better description.

The neck thru construction certainly helps it ring out and sustain the notes, it has an almost semi-hollow quality to it.

But in reality this guitar is meant to ROCK!

The bridge 81 is everything they are cracked up to be. It is my first EMG loaded guitar and I have heard all of the pros and cons that go with actives, but I really quite like them. Being a Kirk Hammett signature it really punches out those sustained power chords yet is really tight and articulate when riffing. They are very quiet pups, even on the relatively noisy OD 2 channel of the Laney. I have not felt the need to boost the guitar / amp using pedals as the EMGs really kick the OD in the guts! I have heard that the 81 is considered quite brittle when played clean, I have not really found this, although I virtually always have some effect like chorus or reverb on when I play clean.

Rolling the volume down takes away what little twang there is on the 81 when clean. The Ouija, like all of the KH guitars has 2 volume and a master tone. This is great when going from bridge to neck for clean breaks and back again.

The neck has a EMG 60, which in my short time playing it is what I think of as the active equivilant of the PAF Pro. It has that "tubular" rounded and fat sound that is so perfect for Metallica clean intros!

Like I seaid before I have not had that much to do with actives but I really like this combination, they work well together, there is little drop between bridge and neck and the sound doesn't muddy up when you go to the lower frets when using the 60. It is still bass heavy, but when on the upper register is really has definition and that beautiful lead tone like on Puppets, I don't think it would be out of place playing more shred type lead either.

I also play a lot of Clapton blues, and when you roll the gain, bridge volume and tone down on the OD1 "crunch" channel,you can get a pretty good heavy blues sound. Also sounds pretty good on the clean channel using the Crossroads "Layla" and "Sunshine" effects.

The neck is thin and flat, not as thin as a wizard but no where near strat/LP thickness either. This guitar has a painted neck, whilst not to evryone's taste is fine with me. The 24 frets are Extra Jumbos and the star/crescent inlays are really cool, although not the mirrors of the ESP version.

However it really is best suited to Hard Rock - Metal, good ole' Thrash Metal in particular!
