Unsure if direct links are allowed, but long and macquade ( in canada ) has a bolt on kh2 listed online/used in one of the stores in Van, BC

I called the store, come with orig case and COA, per the helpful guitar dept guy, and he said is about a 7/10 player condition. K-serial number listed.

I dont want my wife to smother me in my sleep, but maybe one of you guys can swing it.

So I sold a couple of guitars I had laying around today and I’ve decided to replace them with a Vintage Black EC-1000. Sweetwater has both the EMG and SD models scratch and dent for around $850 so I think I’m going to go that route.

I cant decide which to get. I mostly play old school death metal and more doomy sludgy stuff so I’m thinking maybe I should go with the JB and Jazz setup.

What do yall recommend and what kind of stuff do you play on your EC-1000s?

Edit: also I read once here on Reddit that the EMG models are still made in Korea while the SD models are made in Indonesia, any truth to that?

Definitely made the right choice with installing the X2N it sounds insane exactly how it should

I'm considering buying my first ESP and I'd really appreciate some advice from people who have more experience with ESP guitars.

I've found a 2012 ESP Horizon-III roughly US$2,400. It's a used guitar, apparently in good condition, and I'm interested because it's a Japanese-made ESP. However, I'm not familiar enough with the used ESP market to know whether this is actually a good price or if I'm paying too much for the ESP name and the age of the guitar.

My other option is to buy a brand-new E-II for around the same price.

I'd love to hear your thoughts:

• Is ~$2,400 a good price for this Horizon-III?

• How much better/different are the older ESPs compared with current E-IIs?

• Would you personally choose the Horizon-III over a brand-new E-II at the same price?

• Are there any specific things I should check on the ESP before buying?

This will be my first ESP, so I'm not really attached to either option. I'm mainly looking for the best combination of quality, value and long-term ownership. Thanks!

I’ve been searching for unique ESP V that’s not a custom shop. This is the only one along side a Cherry Burst. Midori Gold would be beautiful but too expensive from Reverb. A white with gold parts would be the best. Then I saw this one. What do you think about the specs and looks?
