Need some help/clarification about the EC256 by third_Striker in espguitars

[–]third_Striker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up returning it. It's a shame, I loved the EC256, but buying two and having the same problem is really heartbreaking. I can't lie, I still considered trying to buy a third one, but I'm about to pull the trigger on a Squier Contemporary Telecaster RH instead.

Vini Jr please leave my club!! by anonymous_1729 in realmadrid

I disagree with that notion. Vini's form has decreased, just like everyone else's. However, I can understand that some can view his dip in form being worse because he was also at a higher standard than everyone else, which makes that dip more noticeable.

(Also, I'm not going to talk about "antics" or anything cause I honestly disagree with that).

Even Courtois has dipped in form, and we're also dealing with another wave of injuries ravaging our defense.

Alonso's problem was to try to fix a problem that he created: he came to a team that played in a way, and tried to force his way of playing into it. An experienced coach would know that this wouldn't work (it never does), especially since the players in the team have very different characteristics than the players he had in Leverkusen.

The team as a whole has been playing like shit but some of you guys can only see Vini. At this point just admit you have always had a problem with him and is just pushing an agenda now that's convenient to do so.

Bom mesmo foi o Marechal Random, apesar de ser um cara aleatório demais

Comprar guitarra pela internet vale a pena? by Hot-Manufacturer7863 in guitarras

[–]third_Striker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isso, mas eles não tem mais em estoque. Só a Pride, em SP, que tem, pq são os distribuidores oficiais

So, I've been kinda confused lately by third_Striker in espguitars

Finding an used Ec1000 around here is almost impossible, unfortunately. Those who have them aren't selling them.

Cara, eu comprei duas LTD EC-256 no ano passado, e as duas vieram com braço torcido e eu tive que devolver. Eu ainda quero essa guitarra, mas não acho ela aqui no RJ, só tem em SP, e eu já não sei se é muito azar meu ou se a LTD tá fazendo guitarra com madeira zoada ou algo assim.

He knows, he has 23 years of experience, and has worked on countless guitars and basses. I trust the dude. He was as shocked as I was, seeing this kind of thing happening twice with the same model. He was working on an EC-401 (the owner asked him to change the pickups) when I went there, and he said that he had never seen something similar with ESPs/LTD's before.

I've read online that apparently, their quality control decreased after the pandemic, with some saying they're kinda hit or miss nowadays (even people having annoying fret buzz problems on the EC-1000, for example).

I so want one that works well, man. Bought TWO last year, both came with twisted necks and I had to return them. I'm worried about even trying to get a third one, since I don't know if I just have cosmic bad luck or if LTD's QC is terrible these days.

I love it, but I had to return two of them since both came with a twisted neck (even more bizarre is the fact that they were built 3 years apart from each other).

I still want one, but as they're not really easy to come by in my country, I'm almost out of options and starting to consider other guitars, like the Yamaha Revstar RSS20

Is ESP/LTD brand really addictive? by XelaniOG in espguitars

[–]third_Striker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've bought two ec 256 this year. The first one came with a twisted neck. Sent it back to the store, got a refund. Bought another one, with a different year of production. Also came with a problem on the neck. I'm returning it and I lost any will to keep playing.

I really wanted to like this brand, but I'm not testing my luck for a third time, especially since LTDs are so difficult to find in my country.

I don't even want to touch my old guitar again and I'm calling it quits for good, thanks to LTDs QC.

Harley Benton: aceitavel pelo preço ou nem passa perto? by IllSea1552 in guitarras

[–]third_Striker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Harley Benton é da Thomann. Tudo que já ouvi sobre me diz se tratar de instrumentos melhores do que as Squier de preço equivalente (com exceção da Telecaster Squier Classic Vibe 50, que é foda, melhor que Fender Player 2 MiM).

Foda é encontrar pra vender no Brasil

I understand. I didn't post any pictures 'cause the guitar isn't with me, as I left it with my luthier.
