NGD - LTD Kirk Hammsammich

Post by Hipster Salad »

My kid has been wanting a guitar with a Floyd for a bit now, so yesterday I surprised him with a new 200 series LTD KH.

The hardware and pickups are so much better than what they came with a couple decades ago. Passive EMG-Hz pickups were just as bad as the Duncan Designed garbage, and the licensed Floyd lo-pros were just awful. ESP pickups and Floyd Special should last a while if it's not abused, but I think I'll eventually upgrade the bridge and studs if it starts to not hold tune anymore. The knob layout is actually kinda cool. Separate volume knobs are useful if you want to keep your amp on the same channel but want a semi-clean when you switch to the neck pickup.

Anyway, he's super happy about it. Timing was good because it'll be perfect for his Halloween costume, and I'm hoping it'll get him more excited to go see Metallica in a few weeks.

That's awesome dude! I ended up getting my daughter a cheep Ibanez Geo Jr model.

My daughter is still in the phase of liking the idea to play, but doesn't want to learn yet.

Hopefully this beast of a guitar will keep your son going strong! Btw, does it come with two volume pots and one tone?
