ESP LTD EC-257 Black Satin

I wanted to have a LP form guitar for a long time already. The big fight was to get a 6 string one (looks better with the gold hardware) or the 7 strings one. Since my main guitar is 7 str, one I did decide to go straight for the 7 str, one. Guitar has come pretty well packed. It has a small weird hole (like a needle head) on the 5th position at 7-th str. going under the jumbo fret. Even tho it is a small one, was easy to notice it's presence. The guitar had a bit high string action but it was corrected lately. The part that i do not like most are the machine heads - It should be the first thing that everyone should consider to change with something better. Otherwise everything else was fine on my new guitar. Even the stock pickups are pretty descent to play or record with them. Compared to the entry model LTD crafted in 2006 (ex260) that i own, this one looks not that flawlessly assembled.
Overall quality/price I think it is a good deal.
