ESP LTD H-100

22 fret/Basswood Body/Tune-O-Matic type Bridge/Non-Locking tuners/
2 Passive humbuckers with 3 way selector

This Guitar works great for Rock/Blues/Heavy Metal you can even get some Jazz tones too. It works great with all kinds effects

The Factory Set-up is good. But the Saddles are a little soft and developed burs. I had to file the down some because strings were breaking like twice a day

It will definitaly withstand live playing. I Jump around alot and band the crap out of it. I put some schaller strap locks on it because the origanals came loose to often

I never had to deal with them

I've been playing for 2 and half years. I also own a Epiphone Joe Pass Model. I play it through a crate full stack/MidiVerb/Bad Horsie Wah

This guitar was made in 2000 has 22 frets, carved strat style body, two LTD pickups (humbuckers), one volume and one tone knobs, 3 way toggle select, and stop bar/tune o matic bridge. Mine is the Black Cherry finish with black hardware. The body is made of basswood and the neck is made of maple. Came with cable and neck rod key.

I run this bad boy into a Crate GX-140C combo. I play Heavy Metal (Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax, most older bands). For that type of music it works very good even on clean it sounds good. If you like deep palm mutes this thing has them.

From Musicians Friends/Factory??? the action was just the way I like it. The only flaws with it was the intunation(sp?) was a little flat for my taste.

The finish can't take a few hits, like putting it in the case but hitting the edge of it by stupidity. Your pick might eat it off kind of fast too.

Never dealt with ESP but Musicians Friend was good. I first ordered it in black but it was on backorder, they let me change the color with out a hook.

I've playing for 8 years on a GTX 23 untill I got this one and it just rocks. The only thing is this guitar should have a little bit thiner neck, I have small hands.

This guitar was made in Korea... don't know the year though. 22 frets, basswood body, two humbuckers, volume knob, tone knob, 3-way selector switch. It's kind of like a strat in shape, but different. It's got a tune-o-matic bridge, LTD deluxe tuners, rosewood fingerboard. It's got nice inlays... that abalone stuff I think. Has a shiny finish... don't know what exactly. Came with a cable. 8 feet maybe?

This thing has great sound. It works really well with rock and metal, which is my main style. I use it with a Rogue CG-30R amp. I haven't tried it with any effects yet. It's most excellent with the thick, heavy sound of metal, but also good with smoother and softer styles. Great for playing Metallica, and great with GN'R too.

This guitar was set up magnificently. Not a flaw in it. Compared to my Peavey Raptor I, it's much easier to play faster, more complicated lead parts. Pickups are excellent, as is everything else.

This thing looks like it'll take a good beating. I haven't tried to, but I'm sure it would. Finish looks nice and the hardware's very good. Definately lasting. The strap buttons are excellent. This guitar won't pop off the strap any time soon. I'd definately gig w/o backup.

I haven't had to deal with the company, since the guitar's brand new and excellent. The warranty is a life-time one

I've been playing for a year and a half. This guitar is my pride and joy. I'm very glad I bought it. I also own a Peavey Raptor I, Kamen Montana, CryBaby wah pedal, Peavey Rage 158 amp, and a Rogue CG-30R amp. If this thing was stolen, I'd be pissed as hell. I love it soooo much. I don't really have a favorite feature. It's a marvelous work of art. It comes in nice colors too.

The year it was made in was 99.It was made in Korea.It has 22 frets which I could care last about.The top is laminated,there are 1 volume and 1 tone control.It has two humbuckers which I like the most.I am not really sure what kind of pickups it has(but they are pretty hot for me).I have passive electronics which I like instead of having active.The body is made out of basswood(which is very light).The neck is made out of korean wood.The finish is a Red which really looks nice on stage.This guitar is very nice because of the stop tailpiece.The tuners are a non locking brand made by ESP.The neck is the best.For me I like to slide a lot and on this guitar it's a piece of cake.When I got this guitar it had no case or nothing but that was ok for me.

My music style is playing heavy metal and this guitar cuts the cake for the price.It is a great piece of work.The way this guitar is setup is great.The amp I use is an old Laney pro tube lead(this amp is really good but the three preamps makes it hard to get that right sound).I use a marshall jackhammer,and a rogue E.Q petal.This guitar gives off a rich sound and a bright sound also.The only thing is dont keep the volume all the way when doing leads.Because you get a bad overtone.This guitar can make what ever sound you want its for you to make that choice.The likes is that its cheap,plays great and its great for all kinds of music.The dislike is the the three way switch because of the muddyness of it.

when the guitar came to my house it was great.The factory really did a good job on everything.The action could not have been any better when it came out of the package.The pickups were just right.But the only thing was the paper over pickups you have to take that off.The guitar had no flaws or anything I was really happy on how good of a job ESP did on my guitar.

If I had a choice to play any guitar to play I would play this.I have had this guitar for about a year and I have not broke a string let.This guitar can take anything you dish out to it(it holds).I have no worry about the hardware lasting.This finish on this guitar is so good I think it's never going to ware off no matter what you do.The strap buttons are good enough but I have locking ones just in case.Yes for the months I have had this I had no worry's.I use the guitar every wear I go,and I have used this guitar without any backup for gigs.

I have dealt with Esp one times and they were very friendly.No I don't need to get this guitar repaired I have my dad to do it for me.The warranty is on it is for life.So I don't need to compane

I have been playing for about 10yrs,I have alot of other guitars amps and petals.I wish I could have got this guitar for free?But it was worth paying for.If it was stolen or lost I would problay buy this guitar again.What I love about the guitar is how the body is made it feels really good when you play on stage.I don't hate anything about this guitar.My Favorite is the head stock it looks really good on the guitar.Esp did a good job writing LTD.I chose this guitar because I seen metallica using the brand so I thought it would sound just like them and it does. Maybe later I'll get some EMG 81 or 85 but for now I'm set.All I can say is go out and buy one it's worth the you pay.

this guitar is great, has a nice carved top, great lightweight body, super fast neck. it has black hardware, a stop-tailpiece, 2 humbucker pickups, mine is a black cherry finish, almost a purple-red, it is beautiful. some of the other reviews complained about the nut, well, mine doesnt have any problems, no buzzing or anything. id say the one thing i dislike most about it is the bridege pickup, its wayyyyy to midrangy. but this is my favorite guitar so far, compared to the strat i was playing, the strat felt like plastic. but i only got a cable with it cuz it was in AMS dent and scratch section, you should check that out, there really wasnt any dents or scratches on it, just a couple pick scratches.

i play emo, and for those of you who know what that is, this guitar works great. when i stick on the neck pickup i get that way heavy hardcore sound, and when i switch to both pickups i get the great sound that is very well balanced. the guitar is virtually silent, i couldn't tell that i had left my mixer and stuff on cuz i didnt hear a thing. it sounds very alive, it doesnt sound or feel fake, it has a very transparent tone.

this is the part where i couldnt find anything wrong with it. it was set up perfectly, it is in perfect tune all the way up the neck, everything was set up amazingly, the action was just a tad higher than what i like, but i like it pretty low so it was pretty good, im not gonna mess with it. id say the only thing is the pickup selector was a little loose. no biggie.

im pretty sure this guitar will withstand live playing, i guess we'll find out in october when my band has to open for 7/10 split. the strap buttons are amazingly good, i usually put on strap locks, but i dont plan on doing that for a while. the finish seems good i really havent done any damage to it yet except i have poison ivy and my medicine is getting on it where my wrist sits. i plan on gigging with out a backup cuz usually the bands i play with would loan my their guitars if something happened to mine. but if i didnt know the band personally, then i would take one.

ive only dealt with esp in a question form, asking them things, nothing amazing, they did good.

ive been playing 3 years now, my firat electric being one of those crappy sears guitars. that broke, and i was stuck borrowing guitars for the rest of the time. so this is my first good electric. i played a freinds strat for a long time, but that felt and sounded like crap compared to this. if it was stolen, id be pretty upset and i would definetly buy it again. i think the neck is the best part of it, it feels so smooth. and the sound is so transparent, it is amazing. i compared it to a strat, a tele, a dearmond, a SG(which i didnt get cuz it was an epiphone and my other guitar player in my band already had a Gibson SG standard), and a bunch of others. i dont remember which all ones. i wish it had a case. i guess for the price i payed ($250) this was a great guitar. id suggest buying it, but only if you are into power music, like metal or emo or hardcore or punk. but it doesnt seem to fit in right in punk, it looks to classy.

This guitar came with 2 stock non-Duncan pickups. I actually think they sound kinda good. The bridge p/u is rather too thin for my taste, but i think the neck pickup absoletuly rocks, but then again, i like my sound really thick (but not too muddy). Setup is: ESP --> Crybaby Wah --> Ibanez chorus/flange --> Ibanez Classic Metal --> Samick LA40R. I usually use both pickups for clean tones, and the bridge with distortion. I messed around with guitar for a long time unsatified until i put on some heavier strings (.52--.11s) and this really made a difference. I dont drop down to D that often, and i think that because of the rather low action, id get too much string slack. Nevertheless, for the price......its an excellent guitar.

Actions a lil low, but not too bad at all....good for beginners who dont really have much strenght in their fingers. Finish was a dull grey (no gloss), but i actually kinda like it because it changes a lot with the light. Bridge is Chrome tune a matic (flatbar) and ill probably change it black Floyd Rose soon. Also, ill prolly change the pickups soon, but im not sure to what...either EMGs or Gibson 85s.
No flaws when purchased.

Only had one slight problem with the toggle switch, but that fixed itself with no problem and cost. The input jack is kinda loose, but i just have to remember to screw it back in every once in a while.

Never dealt with em.

Very nice for the price. One day ill switch to a Marshall stack/PRS combo, but this will do till then.
