Y’all have opinions on these ?

Looking for a shedder type. I like that the neck radius isn’t too flat. I might try a used one but definitely open to similar alternatives.
 
Any of his Strat style guitars is basically an MII with graphics, so gtg. Thin D shape neck. And 600 series and up is solid for ESP sigs in general.
 
I don't think you can really go wrong with them, the fretboard wood has changed over the years from rosewood to rosewood-like to now ebony-like with scalloped frets and from the standard EMGs to his signature bonebreakers on the newer ones. As far as ESP/LTD goes the necks are fairly thin profiled too. There's also an edwards version with a satin natural neck finish, rosewood, and dots the E-M-II-CTM though not sure how the neck profile is on that one.
 
I have an LTD Ouija, which is just a 602 with a graphic, and ESP KH2 NTB. Both guitars are NTB but the Ouija and any of the other 602 variations I've tried have a very different neck shape than the KH2. The KH2 is like the old Kramer necks. It's a little more rounded and thicker but super comfy. The 602s to me seem a little thinner and not quite as beefy but it's still a really good feeling neck. The QC on the 600 series LTD is great and id have no issues getting one if given the opportunity.
 
Excellent

Definitely a different type of guitar than I usually play
