This is completely different, and I get that. Its like comparing Apples to a bicycle. Not even close, so just curious what your thoughts are on this:
a NEW LTD ED-401/1000 vs a USED E-II Eclipse VS PRS S2 Singlecut (most likely a standard/satin finish)?
they are roughly coming to the same price, give or take a few hundred.
I do have an edwards, which, may be the best guitar I have. I dont play live, and rarely ever plug in my guitars (couch player, mostly), so pickups make no difference to me. Dont care if its 22 or 24 frets. Dont really care if the tuners are locking or not. for roughly $900-$1600ish, all three guitars are around the same price range, with the PRS s2 probably being the cheapest.
I totally admit that this is a 100% aesthetics thing. I want a white singlecut with an ebony board, similar to a les paul custom. Not really happy with what Epiphone has to offer. Have considered a Jackson Monarkh, but the few I've played, I wasn't too blown away with them.
Have only played a few LTD ec-1000's, 400s, and 256s many years ago (maybe around 2010 or 2012? they aren't too common where I live. Have played 2 S2s and thought they were fun. NEVER played an ESP. I'm guessing that my Edwards is between the LTD and ESP?
I do prefer chunky necks though.
Possibly open for other guitars, if they have certain specs I'm looking for.
any input in this would be greatly appreciated
