Sad but true 
So i even posted an order at ESP, but they didnt take the order seriously, at least the European distributer didnt care. ESP themself told me, they can only sell through the distributor, so....after a lot of stress i got a price quote for my custom KH 2: a round 6000 Euros (with the mods i need to be able to play, and a LH model). I didnt want to spend that much money on my second guitar, you know. |
holy crap that's not cool! i had always heard great things about their customer service, guess that's not the case
i was also under the impression ESP / LTD were one of the only manufacturer's out there that offered left handed models for the same price as their right handed equivalents. there's also something about their custom shop and its prices that is just obscene. i tried re-creating my LTD in there and it tripled in cost.
ultimately as long as your happy with it, then it's great
from the sound of things you happened to start with this style by chance and happened to stick with it, which is definitely cool. the original topic was more about choosing to learn the instrument in an unconventional method as a way of being different (which is why so many of us saw issues with it)
