My EC 401FM Review
My EC 401FM Review
It is short but to the point.
This guitar is a beast! I opened the case and my jaws dropped. The See through black color and the black nickle hardware go together perfectly, and the workmanship is outstanding. The neck on this guitar is flawless. It is very smooth and fast, your fingers will simply glide across it. The jumbo frets are a plus. I'm not a big fan of the rosewood fretboard. Ebony would of made this thing complete. I mainly play metal and the active EMG 81/60 combo is amazing. I ended up having it professionally setup. The intonation is excellent and the sustain will last for what seems like forever. The 81's tone and crunch is like a punch to the face. While the 60 has a very nice clean warm tone to it. I highly recommend this guitar.
Thank you. I haven't played the older 400's or 500's personally. I have played my friends EC 1000 and it is right up there with it sound and quality wise.
