Last month I treated my self to an ESP LTD ec1000vb. It's got active EMG pickups. Bought it because it's pretty. Actually it's really lovely, such a nice & easy guitar to play.
EMGs have a bit of a bad rep though.."no character". and my amp is a 5150 which isn't great for cleans. For heavy stuff it's amazing but clean, especially the bridge pickup, it can sound really strange almost like a synth.
