Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Finished in See Thru Black Cherry Sunburst, the EC-256 combines a single-cutaway mahogany body and maple top with set-neck construction. Its two ESP Designed LH-150 humbuckers handle rhythm and lead parts, and the push-pull tone control splits them into single-coil operation when a different pickup voice is needed. A thin U-shaped 3-piece mahogany neck, rosewood fingerboard, 24.75-inch scale, and 22 extra-jumbo frets make up the playing platform. LTD locking tuners and a TOM-style bridge complete the hardware layout.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Rehearsal sets that move from rhythm parts to lead lines with the dual-humbucker layout.
- Players who want push-pull coil splitting available from the tone control.
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players who need a left-handed instrument; this EC-256 is listed as right-handed.
- Players wanting a tremolo bridge instead of the TOM-style bridge fitted here.
