ESP M-II

[RattleHead]

Have any of you guys played one of these? If so are they any good? I'm still looking for a relatively cheap base for a star shaped project guitar, so your input is apreciated.

Thanks.

The ones I've played were pretty decent I thought.

If they had decent inlays, I'd own one...

I have an M2. Solid guitar. For an older model the neck is in great shape. Licensed Floyd though, don't like that. Great tone and great for heavier style playing ...imo.

Re: ESP M-II

Got or know of any pics of those Kramers?

There were a few models of Stagemaster's, and they were all cool. I had a white carved top Stagemaster that was neck through with little headstock shaped inlays. Here are some examples of the common flat top style:

From what I have seen there have been many almost as many variations of these guitars as the number I have seen. Some look an awful lot like ESP guitars while others look more like the Kramer designs ESP was making for them.
