ESP or GMP

Re: GMP

But that's all in the buyer's court. If you order a canary yellow Les Paul with some sort of friggin' parrot on the headstock, you'll get it with ESP as well.

And I find it very very hard to believe an ESP Custom Shop would only fetch as much as an GMP on average...

I don't think GMP will build using a shorter scale. Maybe someone just has to ask them nicely.

Not same price, same percentage of orginal cost. The biggest problem with custom shop guitars in general is they are customs for you. Some of your must haves maybe a major turn offs for most people.

Re: GMP

I realize that. But since he said the final prices were in the same ballpark, I'd still say the ESP would fetch a higher resale value than the GMP.

Re: GMP

I never played a gmp, but I had a cs esp that was simply amazing. I bought it used for $1000 about 6 years ago and sold it for $1300 about 2 years later. The quality and playability were unreal. I really wish I never sold it. That is one of the ones I should of held on to.
