skull and crossbone fret inlays look better in real life upside down headstock the guitar is sweet

the guitar has really nice tone to both pickups and sound like emg 81's anyways no matter what kind of emg's the are there just pure heavy but also versitile enough to play all kinds of music

Overall:
incredible sums it all up for you

Feature:
i absolutley love the floyd rose u can squeal ur ass off and will never! go out of tune, also the 24 frets is great to have, and the cutaways are huge and great for high fret acsess

Quality:
straight out of thebox this guitar was a dream all i did was change the pickups and it was perfect for stage, but i would never play a live show without a back up simply because of the simplicity of the floyd rose trem

Value:
this guitar is extreamly cheap for the amount of quality of this guitar

Desirability:
the guitar looks quite plain but never to mind because in the studio this sounds like the chunky'ist guitar ever

Sound:
these pickups kickass, although to get abit heavier tone for me i baught a set of EMG-ZW zakk wylde signature, just to get a bitmore natural dive out of these active pickups

Ease of Use:
well for me i play mainly heavy metal like trivium, pantera, slipknot,metallica and bands along the lines of them, i have a vast array of pedals including the boss metalzone, boss chorus, line 6 uber metal, boss chromatic tuner, boss blues driver and a boss acoustic simulator i also have a crate g412sl cab and a blue voodoo 120 head i have used this guitar a bunch of times live and a lot of times inthe studio and i have never had a slip up with this guitar

Support:
when i baught this guitar there was a chip in the machine head due to crappy freight but i called up esp and straight away they shipped me a new kh-202 and never asked for the older1 back

Overall:
overall this is the best guitar i have ver owned and the cheapest to so i rate this a 10 out of 10

"Read this for an unbiased and honest review."

Feature:
The factory shipping box came with a small kit that included the tremolo bar, an extra spring for the floating bridge and four allen wrenches. Also included was a very comprehensive owners manual and a 2005 product catalog. The basswood body was thicker and heavier than I expected. The guitar weighs damn near the same as a Les paul. Very surprising. The tone and volume controls and selector switch are simple and robust. The licensed Floyd Rose seems decent enough but time will tell if I need to upgrade it. I am used to fixed bridges such as that on a Gibson so I am having to play around with the Floyd Rose to learn the ins and outs of this style bridge. So far it's not too bad. The neck is comfortable and well shaped and the XJ frets are really nice to play with. The skull and crossbone inlays look great and are well finished. The EMG pickups as mentioned earlier are very good. I am not seeing the need two swap them out as some people seem to suggest. The bridge pickup is nice and cutting. The neck pickup, (while a tad muddy as neck pickups usually are) is still pretty good.

Quality:
Simply put, this guitar is very well made. I was pleasantly surprised by the overall build quality of the guitar. I have to admit that the fit and finish is right there with my $1800 Les Paul Classic and better than that of my $1100 Les Paul Studio. The frets are nicely finished with no sharp edges whatsoever. Very smooth and clean. Nicely finished inlays as well. This guitar has good heft and has a very solid and substantial feel. I think it will be a very durable guitar and able to take abuse if needed.

Value:
This guitar is an excellent value. For what this axe sells for it is worth every penny and then some. I feel it can easily rival more expensive guitars in terms of quality, sound, look and feel.

Desirability:
This guitar has a very high "I want it" factor. It looks menacing with the black hardware and black finish. The skull and crossbone inlays add to the appeal as does the reverse headstock. Very cool indeed. It is simply a bad-ass looking instrument. I have to admit I bought it mostly for the look and the attitude but it is definitely more than just that.

Sound:
This guitar sounds great with the stock passive EMGs. It is very easy to attain that cutting Metallica tone with this guitar when you have your amp set up properly. I have an EMG 81 that I could throw in the bridge but I am not sure if it is necessary - I love the tone as it is. I play metal and hard rock almost exclusively and this guitar is fantastic for this style of music. I also own a couple of Les Pauls and was comparing the tone to the KH-202. I have to say while it is tough to beat the thick, meaty tone of a Les Paul the KH-202 comes pretty close.

Support:
I have not had to deal with customer service yet. I had to give a 9 though to keep the average rating from dropping. :)

Overall:
Overall this guitar is fantastic. I am very pleased that I bought it and there are no regrets. If it were stolen I would definitely want another. Don't be afraid to take a look at the KH-202 - you will not be disappointed.
