Re: holy **** look at the price on this pig

Great guitars or not I cannot rationalize spending that much for a guitar. Also, why does George Lynch have so many signature models? He's a virtuoso yes, but he's not been on a hit record in years and for a company to sink that much money into someone who's not moving as much product as some of their other artists is amazing.

Name a virtuoso that HAS had a hit record in the last few years. [img]graemlins/eyes.gif[/img]

And if you even THINK about mentioning K.H. you shall be pummeled about the face and head with a rubber chicken untill pronounced.. cured. [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

while Hammett is no virtuoso, he sells guitars...and TONS more than George Lynch.

Well, I bow my head to the guitar selling god that is Kirk. [img]graemlins/notworthy.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/bs.gif[/img]

Too bad he isn't the guitar PLAYING god like George. [img]graemlins/evilimages/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

But I digress, back to the topic at hand.

I 'm not a big fan of any of ESP's signature guitars, from Kirk's on down to George's

The ones I've tried all seemed "decent" at best..
For over $1000.00.. I want more than.. "decent".. my import Jacksons are better than "decent"

ESP can't even make an original headstock! First they ripped off the Jackson pointy head, now they've got what Washburn did in the '80s.

Dude, really, find a REAL problem with the guitar, okay? Most signature guitars have limited color options, and these are no exception. Most metallic silver colors I've seen come out as white on a monitor if the paint doesn't have large metalflakes present. In addition, this is the same damn King V style that ESP's been selling for years, just with Mustaine's name on it and a silly inlay.

If I get one of these in my hands and it sucks, I'll join you in laughing at it. Until that time I see no point in saying a damn thing about it because in essence you're just making fun of a catalog.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">oh come on BM you know it's gonna have a fat neck on it and as far as the color think Jackson ft worth never had any problems puting the actual colors up on they're website and you know that ! metallic silver ? Looks like photoshop dark white to me [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] and look at the wings on that thing it gonna fly away [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] //Steve

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">It doesn't. It used to, but not anymore..I was commenting on the fact that *hit* records don't happen to skilled guitar players anymore...

You made the comment about how many guitars Kirk sells, which I still don't know what that had to do with anything.. [img]graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

A perfect example of what is wrong with ESP.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">so what are you saying man ? that it's guys like me who like Jackson guitars only [well most of the time] that were the reason that esp moron dude came on this forum and bashed us ? this is the Jackson forum man and I am proud of it I don't go to the esp board ever and bash them KM ! cause the dude is some esp stocker ****er [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] is not my problem and I could care less what he says man ! so don't say it's dudes like me that cause that , cause that simply isn't true man , I live here in my part of the world and he lives in his thats good enough for me , and should be good enough for him ! I think this guitar is a piece of crap [the dv8] looks kinda like a kvx10 with a pickgard , I think the kvx10 looks better actually and I bet 100 bucks the neck is alot nicer than the good old fat esp style neck that we all know [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] but thats just my opinion man and this is the Jackson forum so I will say that cause thats what I like ! anyway man don't assume that I said something to provoke the esp stocker !
