NGD: ESP MX-220 EET FUK
This arrived over the weekend. First run ESP MX-220 EET FUK Explorer 1989 set neck with step joint! Custom ESP blue interior case, all original hardware, in near mint condition. A dream has been fulfilled!
Thanks!! I got lucky and found it on eBay. Same here! I always loved the truss rod cover on it. Back in the day, the old USA ESP catalogs used to show that one in them when they were selling the ESP EXPs, and I was always like man that looks like ebony and that truss rod cover is awesome, now that is what I want. What the USA sold was not that, with the bullet truss rod covers and rosewood fretboards and bolt on. It took me awhile to find it, and when I did I jumped on it cuz I always wanted it this way. So just be patient and be ready to buy if one shows up. As to the weight, yes its definately lighter than the newer MX-250s. I had a 2003 MX-250, and this one is lighter and sounds way better. I didn't think there would be a difference but there is. I don't know if it has a maple neck. I thought it was always mahogany, the entire guitar. Sweet guitar! Have to switch out those knobs for some all chrome ones to match exactly how Het had it though. If I come across a early 90s MX-250, I'll let you know.
Thanks man! Yea its an amazing guitar, especially the condition and that it has the step neck joint exactly like Jaymz's. Ultra rare to find! Yea I will definately not be selling this guitar. I'm going to hold onto it a long long long time. As for the Man to Wolf... Erick is the only one I know that has a legit one and I've asked him about it multiple times and he won't sell it. When my KL comes in, I will take a picture of all three
I wish it was.
Back in 2002 I bought a ESP Exp, in 2011 a guitarbuilder made me a new neck out of mahogany, ebony fretbord and the Man to Wolf inlays made of mother of pearl.
The body is a legit ESP and the neck is custom made, it is a good looking guitar, and plays very well.
I have changed the neck Pick up from a 81 to an 85.
Congrats Man!!! I'm so glad that finally your dream has been fulfilled!!!
Enjoy Man!!!
