if i could afford the pups i could probably get the black and red done, i just realised its only monday
i nevver now what day it is these days.

they're not Gibson, they came with the tele custom squire I turned into the barirone but I do have a pair of chrome humbuckers sitting here doing nothing...they're yours if you want them

So get the 30-fret and tune it down 8 semitones.

I'd rather buy the ESP from you guys

My other ESP (LTD) and my Jackson are 24 frets and I tune them down a whole step (open Gm). I think extended necks get too plinky on the higer notes, I'd rather bend

I'm thinking the same. Anything more than 24 frets and plink plink plink is what I get then....

EMG 81, EMG 85, neck-thru, carved top, awesome finish...599usd if this is still around in a month I'm gonna get one from zzz. I played one today at that store and loved it but zzz will bill me over 4 months at 150 each. My wife wants to buy it for me the smae way. That's how I bought the Rebel but at AMS but they do 3 months.

My other ESP/LTD MG-750 has the same fretboard but the headstock is reversed, they would make a nice couple

edit: my other one is in this pic but very dirty

I do not have the EMGs in it now but the guitar is in perfect shape and I have some old duncans (from my kramer ritchie sambora) I'm putting in it.

taxes are done

now we wait 8-14 days they say...If things stay as they are (and they should but never say never) I wont stretch out the payments but this is looking like my next ax believe it or not. I really want to build a a high end warmoth and usually would but I fell in love playing this and I really want another neck-thru (I'm not going to let Denise buy it for me)

Do yous like this one?->
http://www2.gibson.com/Products/Electri ... tudio.aspx#
I have a japanese knock off with Duncans in it, but the Gibson has the allure of being the real deal.
I know Hink has an aversion to Gibsons, what is it particularly that irks about them?
Contents in the muse
I can recomend the Ibanez RG series for sure. Mine has lovely smoked chrome hardware

Your next guitar?
