Slight body mods are def cool. Peace sign inlays seem really 1995.

That headstock is a sin on that body

DCGL still is an ESP candy store...lots more in stock than what is online. They have tons of custom shop ESP there and still get tons of prototypes. ESP/Schecter can almost be looked at as twin companies.

Last time I was down there, which was a few months ago, they have a ton of Schecter protos, but definitely seem more focused on Schecter than ESP now days. And yes, I know ESP and Schecter are branches of the same tree.

Sin ain't even the word

Just put the reverse pointy headstock on it uuuuugh.

 

[gunch]

Kind of looks like a RD if I punch myself in the head enough times and squint

For those interested in Burly, Fender Scale, Teardrop Stocked, 7 string Horizons.

If only it were baritone...*sigh* Burl is not my thing but I could get past it. And D tuner is on the wrong side...

 

[MaxOfMetal]

Those are some lovely Schecters.

They look like they have STD's. My instincts say avoid at all costs.

god how I wish Edwards were more readily available in the US, I'd take even half of the Edwards' lineup in place of everything we have for LTD

They’re not peace symbols, they’re Mercedes logos. Just throw that bad boy in your G- Wagon and go to the gig.

Fine, the universe wins. I can legitimately get behind this one. Black burst over burl looks amazing when flooded with all kinds of vomit burst burls.

 

[dirtool]

Never care about burl, but cockstock 7+blank fretboard always a yes to me.

 

[Solodini]

More HIIIs, please.

That's an amazing looking axe. Too bad they are not available in the free world.

Keep the garbage burls. Not a fan of any of them.

The only one I have a slight tolerance for is an older Ibanez S prestige.

I'd swap the control positions, but this is yummy

When peace signs were fashionable in the 90s I would routinely see Mercedes emblems spray-painted on walls all over the place because people didn't really know the difference.

Curious as to what you think Japan is. You can freely buy guitars from there, just takes a little more work.
