    I mean, why not?
    I can’t imagine any scenario where that wouldn’t completely rock with your rig.

      I think it's criminal that guitar didn't have a Screamin Demon in it from the factory, if that answers your question.

          For $350 im not expecting miracles. I got a good deal. Its a very well made guitar tho. That same guitar is on Reverb right now for $900 and the stock pups are decent. Way better than the "Duncan Designed" crap my Jackson had in da 90's.

          Its either the Demon or a Duncan Custom but i have that already [DC].

          This is my first ESP and i must say im impressed. Alot better than other guitars in its price point.

              Pretty sure the LTD's DID come with a Demon! They are like $600 retail w/ the Duncan. You sure that isn't a bootleg?

                There was a ESP/LTD Kamikaze model called the GL-500K for a couple years that had the Demon. Mine is the more popular GL-200K.

                    Yeah, I understand it. At $350 that's a helluva good deal. I wish they would bring back the Serpent as an LTD run. I passed on the 600 series serpent when they launched and I can't even come close to justifying a real deal ESP Serpent when the rare one hits the used market. Even the used LTD Serpents are rare. A 200 series for $500 and a TB-12 would be really hard to pass on.

                      Just drop a Distortion in and call it a day.

                        Demons usually excel in superStrats. Made for each other.

                          True, old-school Lynch would just be a regular Distortion!

                              i have an LTD GL-200MT, and I swapped out the LH150 for a JB. the difference was night and day. sounded so much better. I say go for the Demon!!!
