Re: new Mustain ESP V

A car that doesn't run can be fixed. A car with a huge-ass chunk torn out of it because of a wreck is a busted POS.

Re: new Mustain ESP V

He sounds like such a tool by saying that.

Re: new Mustain ESP V

He left pissed so he has to continue saying that, but in the end think about it. Would you rather have a new KV2 or that piece of crap? It's a no brainer, they stole the body shape, used their headstock and what do you have? Crap. Again, what would you rather have? an 8 ball on the first fret or full Sharkfins.

Dave will always be bitter about Jackson, but he left to go to #2 that is the plain and simple of it! Like it or not. Enjoy your money and "good" treatment Dave. I'll take the better guitar!

He truly is a Dick and is ALL about the Freebies and Money. What happened to being humble? No Class. Jack.

Re: new Mustain ESP V

Mustaine has never been humble, and has always had a problem with his mouth, especially when he's drunk and/or stoned. The only difference is that now he directs it at Jackson.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">And where do all this money come from? From the overpriced guitar? Mustaine certainly gave us the best argument against all the overpriced signature ESP [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img] .

He also said :
"You see about 15 years ago or so, I submitted a new guitar shape to Jackson and they sloughed it off. I was pretty disappointed, but when I showed the model to Matt, in his cool demeanor he said, “This is doable.”"

Maybe we'll see one of the first original signature ESP that won't be a copy of Jackson/Charvel?

Dave this and Dave that, I`m more curious in how the hell you manage to destroy your guitar like that...? [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/scratchhead.gif[/img]

Re: new Mustain ESP V

That's what I'm talkin about! where is the other piece?

It's almost worth cutting the wings off and making a custom M1, Horizon or something, but then again, it's not a Jackson! [img]graemlins/refuse.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">heh , maybe the reason it's trashed is because it's not a jackson ? [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

I wonder how accurate that is.

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">"Closeout" could also simply mean that Music123 isn't going to carry them anymore. And given how grossly overpriced it is, I'm guessing that the full ESP version isn't exactly selling like hotcakes. Actually, I haven't even seen the LTD version in person yet. None of the ESP dealers around here have had one in stock since they came out--at least that I've seen.
