VS http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product...itar?sku=519933 Ibanez is $100 less. NOT B-stock. I'm assuming has crappy pickups. Has a trem. (I know the EC-100FR exists) Both are mahogany bodies with maple tops. Anyone here played both? -------------------- My Gear

I do have a S470, without the maple top, but I've never played the EC-1000. So I'll just tell you what I like about the S470.
+ It stays in tune like no other guitar I've played (with a tremolo) + I love the neck + It's light ~ The Pickups are relatively good, I dig the neck pickup, replaced the bridge with a dimarzio evolution (see this blog post about more details). - It doesn't have much sustain on the high strings Speaking of the quality, I can only say that I haven't found a single flaw yet. The factory setup was crappy tough. The S470 is imho a great shred guitar, the ESP seems to be a great choice for riffing and heavy stuff. - Jonas -------------------- My Website | My Gear | Elixir Nanoweb Strings Review | Installing Schaller Security Locks

My voice will go to ESP, but you should definitely check them both out and see what fits you the most. I would go for LTD any time of day.
