ESP alexi, hard to choose

[Dingbat-Walabi]

hi im new to the forums and im just about ready to buy an ESP alexi (ill have enough money in a week or two) Id buy an sv but theyre hard to find on the internet to ship to north america, alexi is easier to find. but I'm not sure which one of the three to get since i like them all:confused: i like the scythe and sawtooth a bit more than the arrowhead but still... please give me your opinion on which finishing you like more and why?

[NevermoreMan90]

Welcome to the forums, bro! Anyone of them is cool. they're practically the same thing, the Alexi 600 kicks serious ass. Which ever one is easier to get is probably better, so i'd go with the Alexi 600. I've got an LTD V-500 that is absolutly fantastic, you should check that out as well!

well im getting a japanese esp one im saying which one of the three esp japanese ones

[NevermoreMan90]

Oh. Go saw tooth. It looks ace in my opinon!

[N3rdAl3rt]

scythe is the most badass, white finish > black, swap the hz for an 85 ftw

[Dingbat-Walabi]

id probably get one with the mm-04 gainbooster built in, if i dont like the sound im curious to what the seymour blackouts sound like but then id have a hole in the lower wing where the booster was :confused:

[Det Brinnande Röda]

the arrowhead is my favourite!

[Shreddy]

Ive got a Saw Tooth and love it. Edwards btw.

[Shreddy]

Gonna swap the pups to a JB or something passive

[AlexiWildchild]

I used to have the Edwards Sawtooth, and now I got the ESP Scythe. I was actually getting the ESP Sawtooth, but I traded it for the Scythe, because it looks cooler in my opinion. :D Well they're both awesome. I like the glow-in-the-dark inlays and pinstripes on the Sawtooth. But the Scythes look also wicked. I'm thinking about getting the Sawtooth though. Would be a nice small Fanboy collection then. :lol

[Shreddy]

^LOL. Get a E-KL-170 instead.

[AlexiWildchild]

Nah, the SE looks much better. :p Although they're both hot as hell.

[Shreddy]

Black + Pearloid Binding = SEX

[AlexiWildchild]

Agreed. But blue + flamed maple top = even better sex.

[Shreddy]

To each his own!...or whatver the saying is.


Although Black + Pearloid Binding > Blue + Flamed Maple Top

[AlexiWildchild]

To each his own!...or whatver the saying is.

Yeah. :)

Although Black + Pearloid Binding < Blue + Flamed Maple Top

Edited your typo. :p

[Shreddy]

Lool

[AlexiWildchild]

Ok, you get me a Kiko SE and I get you a black Kiko. Deal?

[Shreddy]

Done.

[Dingbat-Walabi]

[AlexiWildchild]

Done.

Thanks.

thanks but theyre really dark and id like to see it with chrome haradwarebut thnx for the effort;)

[Dingbat-Walabi]

i think im gonna get a sawtooth
anyone have a pic or two of the esp?

[guitarsatbmusic]

These are not that common man, you aren't going to get dozens of pictures thrown at you. You've seen it with chrome hardware on Alexi Laiho, take any other pic and use your imagination :) They are also all over eBay in Edwards form with chrome hardware. Piece them together in your mind's eye.
What "judgement" are you trying to make from these pictures.

[guitarsatbmusic]

Here, let your imagination do the rest

[thehitman47]

[simebag89]

get what ever you fucking want...

we cant tell you what you like?!?!

i like sythes, others like saw tooth...

you'll never get an answer

[ShreddyMcFunTits]

Does it really matter which one you choose?

[Dingbat-Walabi]

Does it really matter which one you choose?

yes its 4000$

thnx for the pics shane, the only reason i requested pics is cause i wanted to make sure that it was what i wanted, and it is so expect a "new guitar day" from me sometime in the next 15-20 days:D

[sixxpounder]

sounds good :hat

[AlexiWildchild]

And which one do you want now?

[Liromyc]

Just get both...many of us do.

[AlexiWildchild]

^Good idea. ;)

[Dingbat-Walabi]

yeah im getting the sawtooth but the katana guitars auction ended, i hope he reposts it in 2 or 3 days since im getting the money in ten days

i cant get two, thatd cost 8000$ for the same guitar with different finishing.

[Dingbat-Walabi]

right when i decide, this comes along:\

[AlexiWildchild]

Looks pretty cool, but the Sawtooth looks cooler. :p

[Dingbat-Walabi]

Looks pretty cool, but the Sawtooth looks cooler. :p

[AlexiWildchild]
