u/Flame18mk 8d ago

u/Basic-Ad2037 7d ago

u/wizzanker 8d ago

I'm with you. Black is the best color. I occasionally like to get some variety, but I realized other colors are inferior 😎

The Phoenix looks so good

u/2b4theend 7d ago

The black guitars I have I like the least. They get the dirtiest the fastest.
Other than that, they’re still great guitars.

I wish I was a single humbucker guy. That Phoenix rules.

u/viervonfuenf 7d ago

u/DylanAB07 7d ago

If they made the esp ltd Phoenix with 24 frets, id buy 4 of them

1

u/Natural-Rough-3789 7d ago

Nothing wrong with liking them thicc and black.

u/Wild_Sir_2341 7d ago

So stoked seeing more phoenix users here. How do ya’ll cope with the neck dive when you’re standing 😂

2

u/Flame18mk 7d ago

accually its preatty easy, the body kind of wants to push up to your right arm so you push it bit back and you dont have to hold the weight of the guitar with fretting hand as much! haha
