E-II or Standard Mystique will have a laminated top. ESP will be a full maple top with figuring all the way through (if it's a trans finish). ESP also will likely be Honduran mahogany rather than whatever "mahogany" E-II or Standards use.What people would consider fair price for ESP amorous original from 2014? Apparently this is same than the mystique but named different due to market area. The sales add mentions that this was made in Kiso factory so does it mean it is custom Shop made run but with specs of their choice?
I am not that familiar with the ESP factories, custom shop related models and these older models overall. That being said, on the paper this has great specs for me. Ofc there are also e-II models of mystique that I could look for, but is there quality difference that justifies the price gap?
