Progressive metal and politics
I don't know about price increases or whatever, just that you can't remove the Hetfield part of the equation just because it doesn't matter for you. Besides I'm not blaming anyone or anything, where did you get that weird idea
Well I mean you're saying that if Hetfield didn't play a KL they'd be like $3-4k cheaper. I'm saying, that'd be super weird, because for a single builder shop that's been open 30 years, $3k explorers would be pretty unusual, and all the other comparable shops are charging $6-8k usually.
And I mean, you're comparing to a SnakeByte, which is a production instrument, and saying that it's the Hetfield factor that makes up the difference. I would say what makes up the difference is being one guy making 20 of those guitars every 2 years vs. an ESP production line.
"blame", i.e., attributing an outcome to.
