I was in the same boat you are in now. 2014 Tobacco Burst E-ll. I think this guitar does everything well! I went passive and I'm so glad that I did. Still rips your head off if you want it too. Plays great, sounds great. Desert island guitar for me. You won't be disappointed.....

I checked em out before finally purchasing an esp E-II Eclipse. The fit and finish on the eclipse is great. Real nice fretwork too. Gibsons in the same price range looked like they were painted and sealed with a spray can. Orange peel and all. Shitty fret work also. They were grabbing my hand on...
I am the original owner of a 2558 Jubilee and need to have it serviced. I have changed the el34's once, and a long time ago at that. Caps have never been touched.
I am getting volume drops and in's and outs. I don't play outside my home and usually play the JMD1.
