[img]/images/graemlins/rant.gif[/img]ESP is not bad all. It is just their actual line and custom shop are insanely overpriced.

Also most importantly they lack balls to have actual work ethics and most of their production line still consists of copies or slight alterations of other company's models. [img]/images/graemlins/rant.gif[/img]

Re: USA vs Imports: Graphic finishes

as far as i'm concerned.. ESP never made one of their own models. all is either a soloist, SG, LP, tele .. etc etc

last time they tried to make their own guitar, the devil girl emerged *shugger*

Re: USA vs Imports: Graphic finishes

I wasnt saying any thing bad about ESP, other than I dont give a damn about them. I am a huge Megadeth fan, and I Did buy my first Jackson cause of hime and marty, but I dont really fuck what he plays, Him switching to another company allowed me to have one of his y2kv's...:drool:
I think it sucks that my biggest musical interests is bitter about the whole thing, but Fuck it, I PLAY JACKSONS so who cares.... ESP smee es Pee. I just like saying that I think, smee es pee...

Re: USA vs Imports: Graphic finishes

I will say that most of the ESP & LTD guitars I have played, played very well, That was because they were setup well. With that said:
Reasons I dont play/own ESP & LTD guitars:
1. Been a Jackson fan since mid 80s
2. I think they are the best built guitar out there back in the day & currently today.
3. All of my influences played them back in the day (back then it was because they were the best guitars around - not the money).
4. Best bang for the $$$ (esp/ltd overpriced & cut more corners on midlevel priced guitars).

If BC Rich still had the quality that they had back in the 80s I would play them as well, but they would need to get rid of that stupid widow headstock. I also give BC RIch credit for having original designs, I cant say the same for ESP.

I see this got off topic, I was just thinking, I wouldn't mind a DK2 or DXMG w/ Copperhead Graphic.
