I just bought the ESP version and I noticed some differences. The neck and bridge volumes are in the opposite locations. The ESP bridge vol is toward the neck of the guitar and neck vol is down by the output jack and on my LTD it's reversed. Also the knobs and bridge/tailpiece are chrome on the ESP and brushed on the LTD. How are yours setup?

On mine the bridge volume is on the bottom and the neck volume is on the top, just like your Ltd. That's the way all of them are suppose to be. The hardware should be the same satin chrome on both the ESP and Ltd. The ESP version hardware may be slightly shinier but not shiny like regular chrome.
I'm guessing you bought it used? If so it sounds like the previous owner messed with it. Either that or ESP screwed up the wiring from the factory.

ESP/LTD has some "backwards" (IMO) volume setups. The Eclipse models have the bridge volume closer to the neck. My LTD Truckster has the neck volume closer to the neck.

Thanks for the replies. It sounds like they mix up which position the bridge vol is in. No big deal, I kind of like it up top closer to the neck, easier to reach.
