What do you call the binding style? And are the inlays MOP?

Well first off it is a ESP CS guitar. And I think the scalloping, the flamed maple top and the thicker body add many more $$$.

Those Kiko's are two of my dream guitars.

[Shreddy]

The E-KL-170 is still quite expensive lol :( I need a grassroot KL

[Demon Child]

Those things are hot, specially the black one. :eek:

[The Jeeves 3000]

Blue one is my dream guitar but i live in the US and could never afford to drop cash on a guitar that much

are you talking about in place of an Ltd model? Edwards are higher quality than all Ltds including the deluxe series.

Pics of the SE. The first one produced by ESP after Kiko's own and used in photoshoots for ESP's catalogs, website, etc.

(Of course signed by Kiko as well - love it or hate it)

Beautiful guitar that one. If I decide I can be bothered waiting for a custom again I'll probably be getting something extremely similar to that Kiko SE.

[Shreddy]

The black one with pearl binding is my Favourite ESP Guitar EVER!!

[AlexiWildchild]

Liromyc... :eek::mad::rolleyes::|

[HateEvent]

The Kiko SE is phenomenal!

I'm talking price compared to the ESP Customshop Kiko.

I own an Edwards Sykes LPC.
Agreed, great guitars.

I'm envious, Liromyc.

Those are a couple of real beauties.

[Liromyc]

Thx, and don't I know it. I want another one!! :lol

[Paul Malmsteen]

do you use the 27th much? Even for tapping?

[D-EJ915]

mmmm sexay <3

[Liromyc]

do you use the 27th much? Even for tapping?

Right now, no. Nothing I play needs the extra 25-27 frets. However most solos I play do require 23-24 frets so the easy access is nice to have.

I'll be looking at ways to extend and get some use from the extra frets thou.

[Shreddy]

^Could you please post more pics of the black one with the pearl binding :D

[Liromyc]

I haven't taken any, but I plan to do so when get some good day light.

[Shreddy]

Thanks a bunch!
