M-200DX
Purple Burst

LTD’s DX range allows for musicians to get access to a high-quality guitar at a price far less than its impressive features would imply. The M-200DX offers the streamlined M shape and then adds a great-looking burled poplar top on its light, resonant poplar body. Built with bolt-on construction at 25.5” scale, the M-200DX include classy features like a roasted maple neck, rosewood fingerboard, black chrome hardware, a TOM-style bridge with string-thru-body design, full body binding, offset dot inlays, and a reverse inline headstock. The M-200DX includes a set of our acclaimed ESP LH-150 humbucking pickups with matching black chrome covers in the bridge and neck positions, providing punchy, great tone for all genres of music. You also get the flexibility of single-coil tones controlled by a push-pull switch on the tone knob.
It plays roughly half as well as my Charvel DK24 Pro Mod, but having said that, it is a lot of fun to play. The pickups are pretty weak as far as output, but do have nice mids. They bark and do have a rich harmonic character. I am replacing them with EMG's today... The volume knob stopped working after the 1st day and the guitar had a heavy chemical odor out of the box. I purchased this guitar online from ZZounds. The fret ends are very nice, but there is a bit of uneven fret height that will need to be addressed before I can have the action where I want it. All in all, it is a very nice feeling guitar for it's price range and I have been enjoying it since I got it last week and am looking forward to many years of playing it. My review of it will be produced and posted in the coming week or so. Thanks for the guitar! I always wanted an LTD and am happy to have this one. BTW the finish is absolutely beautiful.
