That price is nuts. How has this not sold already?

It was an insane deal and worse because I just kept getting lowballs which is why the price dropped lower than I had hoped. Seriously, the offers I was getting? $400, $500, $600, at best $650!! LTD prices. Oh well, it's SOLD now anyways.

Selling my 1997 ESP Horizon. It's an amazing guitar and only selling it because I absolutely have to. The condition is excellent for being 20 years old. There's a small ding on the backside (pictured) and a tiny ding on one edge of the headstock that I couldn't get my camera to focus on. See...

They'll match only authorized retailers, but there are plenty of them on Reverb. I prefer buying from Sweetwater if it's new. Otherwise, 10% off is easy, I've gotten them to match 15-20% off coupons from Guitar Center too.

Peavey XXX. Zero balance in the tones. Highs took from the lows, mids were worthless. I've heard other people make them sound good and it could've been something wrong with the one that I had, but I've owned a lot of Peavey heads and never thought of them as unworkable until that one. Maybe a...

I think this was a fairly common issue with the early run and a fairly easy fix, but you'll have to take it to an EVH tech.

+1 Big Bends EC1000s are great, but in all my throes of GAS benders, I've never thought about selling my Eclipse and I've sold 2 EC1000s and 1 EC400. They're great guitars, but they can set off some might Eclipse GAS and the ESP is a keeper. I forced myself to confront my hatred of Floyds and...

A 4x12 has a lot of power to it and can handle most situations. I've never played a venue where a 4x12 seemed like too much. I don't trust a lot of sound guys to really care enough to make sure my amp is sounding good enough, so a 4x12 at least has enough to give it a solid backing if the PA...

I definitely have had issues with 3x3 headstocks having less tuning stability than 6 in line. My ESP Eclipse II with a bone nut and Sperzel tuners does a hell of a job. I'm a fan of graphite nuts and string saddles, but don't often spring for them. If you're using 12s, then a wound 3rd should...

Not on the coated, but a friend used the flatwounds and loved them. Curt worked for years at either D'addario or Ernie Ball, I can't remember, but he's a super friendly dude and fairly often is the one answering the phone when you call. Dude knows what he's doing for sure. I feel like the...

+1 Curt Mangan Have not found a better string maker. Most of the people that have bought guitars from me have ended up buying a lot more strings from Curt.

T3BP is for small posts, all of my LTDs and ESPs were large post so I used the T3BT on all of them and it fits perfectly. From the pics I've seen, the VMNT looks like a small post. Both Gotoh and Tonepros bridges for that size use the same sized String Savers: PS-8600-00. I've only put the...

It seems like attenuators are more likely to be misused than most gear. I've heard enough good things to know that when you use one correctly, you can get great results, but if you don't know anything about Ohms and are trying to play a 100 watt amp on 8 in your bedroom, then you're going to...

I don't see the harm in using the sonic maximizer. A lot of folks hate and most have their reason, but there's just as much hate from people who feel like any additional EQ is ridiculous. Who cares? Use what you like. I couldn't play without my SM, but I go for a fairly scooped sound. But I've...

Up front for boost, loop for overall effect.

An important part of the equation is the footswitch. I'd bump $100 for a Z5 included. I found the Z5 WAY too big to use personally, but I sold the one that came with my head and bought an equally usable footswitch that was 1/3 the size and pocketed some cash in the transaction. $1,200 would be...

12-48 for Drop C on 25.5", Curt Mangan strings. I can't say good enough things about them. On 24.75" scale I typically use 12-54, but I'm not too bothered if I only have 12-48 on hand.

You talked me down on price! I never felt offended by it. I'd ask him how he's figuring the price between head and cab. The $1,800 mark isn't too far off both were in excellent condition, but if they're pretty beat up, I definitely wouldn't pay the same price. IMO, a Powerball II is worth...
