I think that ESP is better than Jackson... We have 3 ESP's, and 2 Jacksons at our studio... ESP's are more faster and softer than Jackson gutars... Blah, maybe it's because each of the ESP costs ~10.000€ 
Well, I guess it will all depend on the models. If the jacksons you have are from the Pro series or so -- yes, I do beliece ESPs will be better. Now, if you're talking about USA Jacksons -- I doubt it. Then again, it all depends on the specific models you're talking about.Bodom Madness said:I think that ESP is better than Jackson...

One thing... How the fuck is one guitar faster than another? You might say they are easier to play on but saying that one guitar is faster another is just ridiculous.
Also, the main reason why most people hate ESP is because they don't have a single original model. They just copy other brands, particularly Jackson, and rip off their models. Well, that and the baseball bat thick necks.

What guitar models do you have?
I personally own a B.C. Rich Stealth, with DiMarzio's pickups... Basicaly, an exact copy of Chuck's guitar... (Yes, I am a Death fanboy
). I also started building my own guitar, but I quit playing 2 years ago, so I didn't finish it...

Who cares? If it feels good to him and gives him the tone and playability he's looking for in an axe, then he can play anything he likes. Brands mean absolutely nothing...names are often only a higher price tag. Jackson isn't anywhere near the company they used to be...Fender owns them now anyway. Besides...the guitar he gets from their custom shop will blow the doors off anything hanging on your music store wall.
Don't forget that part of the reason why they switched to ESP was b/c Jackson had been bough out by fender at the time and said it would take a year for alexi to get his stolen "wildchild" guitar replaced with another custom and ESP promised one to him within 2 months. With a Euro tour looming at the time Alexi, like anyone would, decided to switch to ESP so he could have his own guitar for the tour. Roope had to follow naturally b/c of the endorsement.
BTW I have a really old Jackson Performer RR that I got about 7 years ago and it's pretty kickass even though it's not the best sounding guitar. I love the feel of Jacksons and they're probably my favorite guitars. I really liked the RR design and when I found out about cob a few years later it was pretty cool to know that Alexi had one too.

dude my brother owns a limited edition maroon explorer from esp and dude it totaly kicks ass and I'm intending buying the Dave Mustaine DV8r Flying V from esp cause I really don't see any problems in them
First off, fuck you! dont talk shit about esp if you've never played them before. if you've tested them, go ahead. but the fact is that you havnt tested one and your generalising about shit you cant prove. Esp customshop guitars are fuckin good, i own one my self and it kicks anyguitar ive ever played. as for the pickups is Esp's choice to use emg pickups. alexi uses the Hz because thats the tone he is trying to achive. if you dont like it, replace them with something else.delt said:

n00bs jsut get too bitchy about everything. they get way too worked up.
i played several ESP's my favorite was an old custom explorer it had emg81=bridge emg60=neck it played nice and had a beautiful, fast neck. i also palyed an ESP i absolutely hated, though it was an LTD. I also played many jackson's and never really ran into problems with their guitars. i'm jackson biased, but imo ESP is cool dispite the fact they arent very orginal iwth design (and they're japanese)
