ESP Eclipse Kelly Hayes Signature

WickedMao

Hi guys, nice to meet you all, I'm Mauro and I'm from Italy.
I am looking to buy an ESP Kelly Hayes Signature, the one with the Spider on the body. I know there are a few around, and a very few has a Red Spider on them. I also know there is also 1 or 2 in Horizon shaped (one of them played by Kelly at the Hard Rock Live show), and I would like to get some infos on those Horizons.
I'm a huge fan of Cold, and when the Eclipse came out I promised myself before I turn 40 I will get one of them, you know, like in Wayne's world movie when Wayne sees the Stratocaster of his dreams...
Now I'm 37, so it's about time

Cheers to everyone and thank you for having me.

Yep, I saw from the pictures on the Reverb it was heavily used, but yet looks sexy anyway.

Good for you mate

Congrats. I actually nearly bought that KH since the price was good, but just bought 2 guitars recently. I think the wear on it makes it look killer.

Janne K.

does anyone know how much it cost when it came out?

Road King

I think they were around $2400 - $2600 back in 2003 or 2004. They were one of the most expensive ESPs at that time. Looks like prices have doubled since then.

Janne K.

Thanx road King! I agree that prices has been

come up alot

Janne K.

I have one but love it so it's not for sell at this time.  Maybe in the future.  Sorry.  Hope you can find one.  I know you have been looking for a while.

 .... aaaaaand there SHE IS!!!

Found her in a shop 2 hours from my home, she's a 2003 with very few sign of use, basically 9/10 conditions, with original case.
