      Why does this guitar only come in one colour? 
      If it came in classic white & black for solid colours and something like the copper burst / purple burst and a flametop this guitar would sell thousands of units!

                  So I can't stop staring at this Buck Eye Burl, Natural Blue Fade top! Purchased this for a steal. Holding it as i type this now haha. If the frets on this model are not S. Steel. What are they? This workhorse shreds like a MF!

                  More importantly, the action seems high from the 15 fret. Kinda reluctant to mess with the truss rod. Any easy remedies to try first before going extreme? Because I just don't..truss...myself

                    Hey Nickky, Glad you were able to get one of these beauties and we're happy to hear how much you love it!

                    The frets are not stainless but they are high quality nickel silver which are the standard alloy used for most guitars. However there are different hardness levels. Many people prefer stainless because it is much harder than the typical nickel silver alloy from the old days. However, the nickel silver alloys we use have a very high hardness level making them perform excellent. If you need help on setting up your instrument or adjusting your truss rod, I suggest you check out our owner's manual or go ahead and contact our customer service team at customerservice@espguitars.com . Excellent pun as well!

                      Oh okay.. So your owners manuals really are only accessible online? Also any forms of employment going on at ESP US/Jåpån/Australia? Super motivated to promote this guitar brand whilst learning & working hard...>_Ö \m/

                      Regards

                        I really would love this with a maple fretboard and a hardtail instead of a floyd (but still want the bolt on neck and headstock shape of this one which is why I wouldn't necessarily go for the M-II, although that one is also really nice)
