but i'm not caring for what I see...more color/finish options in the ESP line but they are not to my liking at all....i was hoping to see some new color options in the M line...i love my mii with maple board....but don't see an update on the m line. Seems they are focusing more on the horizon model.
 
As a Horus player, I want the Horizon FR-27 sooooooooo bad.
 
That's a joke ? At least half of the standard Eclipse/Horizon/HRF were on the Export catalog :(
 
Looks to me like they're just offering their previous international colours to the local crowd now, and offering some new headstock options. I think they're awesome guitars - but I'll take a flamed/quilted maple top over any of this 'mystic' nonsense any day of the week. Some good lookers in there, but looks aside, they just damn well better have a fixed bridge 7 string under the ESP banner this year, not LTD thank you very much.
 
Am I missing a trend here? They really do a lot on signature series. I'm done with that and wish they come up with something more original in stead of mixing up models and some new colours. As a slayer fanboy I'm amazed to see an EC model as hanneman signature. Come on, he has always been a strat guy. What is esp thinking?

South of heaven is one of my all time fav albums and the guitar looks nice, but I'll pass on this one. After 25 years i have outgrown that type of skulls on a guitar, haha. Seriously, the market for the sentimental value seems small to me. I could be wrong though.
 
Happy to see them offering more options on their already great guitars. Had to had my NT-II ordered from Japan because the 2 colors the offered here were terrible IMO. Now they offer it as standard, good move I say. :yes:

...yeah, I'm a little shocked by that one. May see it in the fall however.
 
I am diggin the purple one from here:

But really I am looking for a 7 string right now. Wish they offered a 7 string MII or something.
 
The new Whitechapel sevens are interesting as well as the Buzz silverburst. That Metallic gold EC1000 looks very tasy indeed.if only it had passives:(
 
More 7 string options always is nice, but I wish they did other ESPs (like an Eclipse and a Vintage Plus) rather than so many LTD sigs.

He originally played a black Les Paul back in the day that is why they made it.
 
Too bad there is nothing new on the M line. That silverburst Eclipse looks nice, although I'm not interested in a short scale length guitar with EMGs.

Another horus owner in agreement.

The scalloping is just the cherry on top.

Ok, maybe on the show no mercy tour, but he quickly switched to Jackson and he is known for his whammy abuse on a strat for more than 25 years. This model doensn't make sense. What is next, a copy of the starter guitar of another famous player? This signature thing bugs me.
