so my wife decided that she was gonna buy me a new guitar for christmas this year. she got me an ESP LTD EC-400VF in Faded Cherry Sunburst. this guitar is prettier in person than in all the pics i saw. she went ahead and gave it to me today. and after i played it for awhile i got online and i actually found a place that was selling it for $120 less than MF. so i called them up and they price matched.

so since i know you guys like pics....here they are:
here are a few shots in front of my DSL100 halfstack

well tonight i put some of my strings on it, cleaned, inspected, and gave it a setup. i found a minor finish flaw on the headstock. nothing to really fret about really. considering my wife paid $479 for it. this guitar is awesome.
