thanks!! yeah I’ve got about 10 EC-256s, they are all completely stock. I really like the way the LH-150 pickups work with my Marshall type amps. These are the first guitars I ever bought and didn’t change anything.

Good to know! I recently got my first ESP LTD (a KH-602) and I’m a huge fan of the guitar but part of me still wants the GL-200 Tiger and I think it has that bridge pickup in it. I mean a Screamin Demon is a simple enough upgrade but if I get one and DON’T have to do an upgrade that’s great news.
More guitars than anyone could need
