That picture does not do it Justice, the amount of detail on the pickup covers for example .....you cant see at all in the pic.
Its worth maybe £3000 from a looks point of view, unless it sounds like god then its not worth the full price
I don't know. I do like the idea of some relicing on the guitar but IMO it's not necessary. To me ESP over did the relicing. The pickup covers just look like they were sanded down to look more flat with more abrasive sanding in between the strings. The body looks the same with just a bunch of sanding marks. It doesn't really look like play wear IMO. Maybe the production versions will look better but the NAMM promo version just looks like someone took a sanding block to the whole body then wore the paint off in spots to show the wood.
I still think James should have left the Iron Cross for a Gibson Sig. or not did it at all. Another ESP Hetfield Sig. is great but he could have did something way more original for this ESP Sig. then to try to clone his original Gibson into a ESP.
I think the tummy cut made it look thin, it was on a normal guitar stand so it was hard to grasp especially when you being talked to by sales guys eager to sell them!
Yeah IMO it is full thicky or almost, just the tummy cut makes it look like it is not. But when strapped on you won't even see it. Plus like I said, no way that thing with the binding and all is the same width as the Eclipse Standard or EC series
That's this thickness I expect
