I've been sick since last wednesday so I am probably just being a bit sensitive myself. Can't see the picture though.... http://media.photobucket.com/image/nicholas%20cage%20bird/edwardbayntun/film%20humour/nicolas-cage-hair-is-a-bird.jpg hope you get better anytime soon

After all these years I finally figured out how to get a rise out of this place. First off, I find it funny that someone who's been here for all of 5 minutes has 'outed me' as a troll. Apparently I don't know the defintion of the term. I wasn't aware that bashing Gibson quality control is not trolling or anything. Obviously saying that a guitars finish is ugly is clearly unacceptable behavior and 'trolling' Don't get all butthurt when someone doesn't agree with you. That isn't trolling; that's just the way things are in the grown up world. People can disagree and not cry or call names...even names that aren't applicable. :poke: I am sure that I hurt some feelings here (which wasn't the intent, believe it or not). I suppose that voicing my opinion on ESP/LTD's designs as being ugly is pretty offensive since it's apparently now a known fact that they are ugly. Because my opinion on the appearance of a guitar is a fact; that's just how I roll. You are giving me way too much credit here. How did you even come up with the theory that my opinion was stated as a fact? The only facts were the pictures and the configurations; if you like your guitar than rock the heck out of it and enjoy it. They're just not my cup of tea which is fine; I am sure that you wouldn't like all of my guitars. That doesn't hurt my feelings at all. If it makes you feel any better that design fits that finish a lot better than the an LP style LTD's. I know that ... i'm just messin' with you ... I rest my case !

You know, I have a Schecter Omen Extreme 7, 7-string guitar, with the same kind of "disgusting" cosmetics as Guitar #1 above - you know, quilted maple cap and mahogany body. I think it looks fine (heck even my 70 year old mother, thinks it looks good - as a matter of fact she thinks it looks great, and my old cadillac green Gretsch Country Club looked ugly!). It also plays and sounds like a million bucks, in spite of being "just a Schecter." Please don't word statements like those above - as though they are gospel truth. It is just your opinion. OK? Personally, I really like schecter's That one is a beauty

Read my post, I think that you mis-eard me ( tip: if you break out your 4th grade spelling bee trophy; make sure that you spell your {censored} correctly). First off, I said ESP/LTD's, because I haven't seen any Edwards locally. They're both made by the same people and that's all I've had for comparison. And this is the ugly whore that I was talking about: Could that be any cheesier? They have a lot of other crappy finishes with EMG's in them. http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/ESP-LTD-Deluxe-EC1000-Electric-Guitar?sku=516629 They do have one that has SD's in it: And it's covered in that horrid multi-colored cheap {censored} binding. And as for my spelling of an LP; well that's just because I say L-P in my head when I type it. Thanks for paying a lot of attention to {censored} that really doesn't matter; I'm sure that I'll continue to do it for the foreseeable future. You got me on schecter; I guess that shows how much I think of them. And yes; that Edwards is pretty nice looking. Too bad they break too many trademarks/copyrights to be sold here in the states.

Well, I've never played an Edwards because they don't have any around my area and I won't even consider buying an LTD or whatever the hell it is with that horribly gawdy finish. I mean what the hell is up with that? I don't understand the need for that ridiculous looking binding or the fascination with crappy quilt tops.... or the desire for EMG's in everything. They look like they are built in the same factory as all the new Schectors which are popular for some strange reason as well. It isn't all about looks either, but I want an LP to sound like an LP and that's with some PAF style pickups. I wouldn't mind trying out an Edwards, but I refuse to buy one site unseen. There's just way too many fanboys of all kinds of flavor on this forum that talk out of their asses. It's almost as if someone doesn't like their guitar than they are less of a man or something. this ... ... is {censored}ing awsome I don't know about you but i've eard this was a LP, with seymour duncans and who said anything abou emg's ? ( it's Schecters, not schectors... and... a LP, not an LP) Note : this is NOT my guitar !

I won't bite that... but still - Edwards are great guitars, if they are made by chinese ... I salute them What do you got against chinese people ? You know, americans are not that much better.. ...It sounds good doesn't it ? Get a grip !

They rarely have Tokais these days. Most of the Japanese-made les pauls are generally Edwards or Epiphone Elitlist ones. It's probably the brand name that's attractive. I'd rather have Edwards create guitars for me that has "Gibson" on the head, just to pretend I have the real {censored}. Funny, I realized that too. The frets and the neck seem very poorly done in many of the les pauls I've played. Very true , its very hard to find a Tokai these days.. And it's a shame 'cause Tokais are really nice guitars

I love this particular model ... when I get the money, I may buy one but my brother has a Gibson LP , and I think there is nothing wrong with it.. In fact, its pretty awsome ! I love playing it ... i've eard guys saying that they hate playing Edwards ... probably just a matter of opinion
