(Sold) ESP - HORIZON
owner: Shin
Around August 2014: I've bought a lot of cheap guitars and was told around here that it's time for an expensive one, and I was looking for a recommended model online and chose this one.
I chose this one because I was looking for a recommended model on the Internet.
It was an early Horizon model, and the tip of the head had been repaired with glue after being cracked.
The body was cream-colored from the burn, but all the parts were very clean.
This is the first through-neck I have owned, and the feeling of vibration transmitted from the neck to the body and the ease of playing in the high position is as expected.
I adjusted the rod and found that it was almost all the way tight, and some of the frets that had probably been replaced were floating and catching on the first string side.
I also thought it would be hard to play without position marks on the fingerboard (see below).
2015.11.3: I took out the PUs because I didn't want to use them as they were, the rear one was an ESP LH-200 (new model) and the front one had a sticker with NC stamped on it.
2016.3.27: I decided to change the electrical system, but I also bought a black HORIZON and lost motivation to do so, so I just reversed the rear and front volumes.
I removed the strings and left it for a while but the neck didn't warp back at all, maybe it was a hard neck in a way.
2017.5: I sold it because I didn't use it too much and I wanted a HORIZON.
