    NBD: Spector EURO5 LX-PJ RAS Layer

    I saw this pop up at a Japanese music store on Twitter a few weeks ago, and I just had to pull the trigger. For a used bass, it was exceptionally well taken care of; I'm glad that it included the original COA. It's my first time having a bass that's neck-thru; really looking forward to hearing...

    NGD: ESP Original Arrow (Black Andromeda)

    After an 11-month wait, my ESP Arrow just arrived (many thanks to Sweetwater). I originally planned on ordering a Jackson KV2 USA Select (as I'd been GASing for a new V for quite a while), but when I got the price quote...I figured I may as well go the extra step for the ESP. :D

    NGD - E-II Arrow 7

    After a two-week delay in customs at the FedEx hub in Memphis, my new E-II Arrow 7 finally arrived from ProMusicTools in Germany. I've been GASing for a V-shaped guitar over the last couple of months and nearly ordered a Jackson KV2 until this one popped up on the 'bay. Really glad that I went...
