Why are the latest versions only available a very, very dark blue, almost black? They absolutely do not reflect the color represented here. For example, all of these available at Sweetwater.
Will the color displayed here and on the one demoed by Bruce Kulick ever be produced again?
Cheers!

You'll have to do what I did....track down a Korean build. Ask whatever shop you want to buy from....any reputable shop will be happy to check for you which it is. I have no clue on build quality differences as I've played on Indonesian guitars from others that were great, some crap. I've got 2 other Korean ESP LTDs though, and both are as good or better build quality to any USA guitars I have. So based on that plus the Korean build's blue paint looks great like Bruce has in his video is why I avoided the Indonesian build....the blue varies, and some I've seen I thought it was black until they showed a pic of the back of the guitar and I realized it was a REALLY dark almost midnight blue.
Love these '87s, especially the M-1 in blue! Saving up to get one as soon as I can. Please make more of these.... make an '87 Horizon with chrome hardware and H/S pickups in that awesome magenta finish like Adrian Vandenberg used to have and I'll buy one of those immediately too!!!
thanks for the insight!
Where is it made?
These are produced in both Korea and Indonesia
Are they on par with the quality of the LTD Deluxe series?
These would be produced to the same standards as our 1000 series instruments
Does this 87 model have a non floating Floyd Rose? Dive Bomb only?
Yes, the trem is not recessed
Yes
Top mounted Floyd, but mine came floating from the factory. Can pull it up about a 1/2 step. Probably going to get mine set up to pull up a whole step. Flutters work like this too or you could flush it with the body, EVH style for divebomb only if you wish.
