ESP/LTD NAMM 2015 thread (No ''official'' NAMM news... yet)

[bouVIP]

The Javier Reyes sig is around $1500. That seems like a nice price for what you're getting
Pretty tempted...

 

[Schaug]

Complete line up is on their site. Still no E-II 7s with passive routes. Oh well...

Maybe next year, or the year after...

Out of curiosity what's new on the KS-7? Is it just the pickups?

Just the Fishman pickups.

 

[Zado]

Fishman pups? Just like Balzac's signature,what a coincidence

Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker Ceramics to be exact.

 

[VBCheeseGrater]

Digging this one, very cool

 

[JD27]

That's an old Jon Donais signature.

Exactly the same one you can find in the Balsac signature

 

[Spectre 1]

Meanwhile in Japan again, another Edwards appears in two colours - ESP | EDWARDS | E-HR-136NT/QM

 

[ToneLab]

That's an old Jon Donais signature.

Yup. I have one. Is that in the new catalog? I can't find it anywhere.

 

[JD27]

No, definitely not in the new catalog and you should send me yours! I love those models.

 

[stevexc]

They stopped making it as of 2011ish, you won't be able to find it anywhere outside of a Legator catalogue until... next year, I think it would be? He's due for another endorsement jump.

There are some killer Edwards on eBay right now for great prices. I wish the shipping from Japan wasn't so damned expensive. They look so good.

I'm a little underwhelmed so far from ESP. They announced 100+ new models but there really aren't a ton of things that stand out to me. The Arrow being one and some of the artist sigs making up the rest. I hope these start popping up in stores soon.

Yeah, they really put all their eggs in the LTD basket this year. Even then, they mostly added to the lower Indonesian and Chinese LTD models. The E-II's aside from the Arrow ( I really like that one) didn't get much love, nor did the 1000 Series LTDs.

Pretty much how I feel.

Such a disappointment but oh well it's best to assume that with every NAMM show.

 

[Blood Tempest]

I'm find of excited about the LTD FRX 7 string. I've been wanting a 7 string F model for awhile. Just might go ahead and pull the trigger this year.

 

[JD27]

Although, it may give me an excuse to try a baritone 7 or even H-408 now that those are available in 27".

 

[Skullet]

Also while in japan
