MX 220 look at price.

Wow i know these are expencive but this is just over the top , it is over four times what i paid for mine , Maybe if it was the first generation with step in the neck joint but i think is a bit too much.

Hi Simo666. If you think this one is bad, I’ve been quoted USD120,000 for an EET FUK before dude. Which I thought was way super expensive.

 

And the funny thing is, the seller thought that I wasn't serious with my intention to purchase because I told him that I’ll not be able to purchase it because of the price tag. 

But USD120,000 for an EET FUK......really?? 

ESP 348

Lol, wow!! That's crazy man.

Papa Fiq

Tell me about it brother ‍♂️

simo666

Yeah they are super rare and there are like low singel digits of the ones with step in the neck joint but wow it is just super money for collectors i was super lucky to get mine for 4.5K .

Like to classic cars justa the story commands the price but they are not selling and he will not sel that one for anyhing like  that price.

 

Stay well all.

simo666, how does your 220 play/sound compared to the 250?

I’d love to get the eet fuk but that price is just too much

If you never want to sell yours, let me know

This is a reference price for the 1st ver in Japan.
At most, it seems to be calculated based on the price of Reverb.

They don't sell it on the internet, but I saw a new EX-250 in black and white for 520,000 yen.

Also, OUIJA's Natural was put on the market yesterday, although it is different from EET FUK.

Thanks Hiroshi.

Interesting that the EET FUK has that toggle switch. Has anyone seen that on other MX guitars?

I have translated the relevant part from Japanese into English.

This is a special order product that the first owner added a direct switch (full tense switch) at the request of ESP when it was new. (If you wish, we will fill in the holes and repair the touch-up after removing it for free.

Have never seen that before.

simo666

Wow i want that so much would considdr sellign mine to make some for it, Yer i not knowe what the other switch is it can'e be factory can it?

the price tho is less than the revery ones i was told there was very few of these with the neck joint step , Wonder the the paint cracks like all the others do in the same position.

it does look ledgit tho anyone know if the website is safe and the company?

 

Splinter228 the 220 is way lighter than the 250 you can so tell the diffreence beacuse the paint on the 250 is way thicker and it seems to mute the high end some how i would day the 220 is more bright dut i not any kind of expert and have not played any of my guitars for a long time .

Sadly I sold my mint one from 1990 for $5500 in 2008 not knowing it would go up.

The guy selling it for 30K paid 30K for it which is a rip off. $20K is the real going rate I think. I sold it because well....it just did not sound and play as good as my Custom ordered MXII-CTM's I spec'd out and paid $3K for each of them back in 2007. All made to my fav woods, specs etc.

 

It's a cool novelty and I'd love one, but personally I'd prefer to collect the sigs with COA's. I just want a JH-3 again haha

 

My old MX-220 is on my instrgam. https://www.instagram.com/p/B8SbhCmg1eo/ Had the red lined case 80's ESP stickers and even the 1990 hang tag. (see the pictures)

Definitely looked like a beauty Sean.

Mesa Sean

Yeah big mistake financially selling it, but what can ya do.

 

 

Mesa Sean

Oh and that one on digimart with the switch is nice and all, but the switch added immediately drops it's value.

Splinter288

Just when you thought the other asking prices were crazy. 

ESP 348

Lol, makes you laugh doesn't it lol.
