Re: Dave Mustaine dropped the ESP endorsement!

Well excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me. :D

I knew the 498 was A5, just assumed the 490 was as well.

Ace Frehley signature with Dimarzios. I really dont think Gibson would have an issue with the pickup swap, But I dont see them doing the different body shapes.
 
Re: Dave Mustaine dropped the ESP endorsement!

There was a Gibson Les Paul a few years ago that came stock with 3 Duncan Distortion pickups- it came in a Cherry finish and had a mahogany, rather than maple top.

Kinda suprised me since they had the 496r/500t pickups at the time
 
Re: Dave Mustaine dropped the ESP endorsement!

Gibson also put out what is (next to Ace Frehley's original '73 cherry sunburst Les Paul custom), the most beautiful guitar I've ever seen back in '88. It was a crimson
red Les Paul Custom with two EMG humbuckers and black hardware. I've never seen that guitar anywhere since!

I remember that was a special order for about 3 years. It came in a few unique colors, I saw a copper one in a music store used. It had dual EMG-60 humbuckers- I always thought it was an odd choice since everyone at the time was using 81's and 85's

If its the same one I'm thinking of I saw a pink one at the GC in Oxford Valley, PA kinda odd. I just thought someone did it themselves.

A few years ago I took a 2001 Black LP Custom and took all the gold hardware off it and changed it out to black. It looked bad ass.

Re: Dave Mustaine dropped the ESP endorsement!

From the looks of this thread, it seems I'm the only one who really doesn't care. I'm not trying to put anyone down for caring, I just don't understand why Dave Mustaine endorsement matters warrants this thread response.
 
Re: Dave Mustaine dropped the ESP endorsement!

That blacked out custom LP has me drooling... I loved when Tattood carrot did it to an LTD1000 too.

i dont really care that much about it being mustaine's endorsement, but im always interested to see what new V's are out on the market. which is why im really curious about this. id be really excited if he got somebody to put out a mahogany V with a floyd. though itd have his favorite ******n medium jumbo frets. bleh.
 
Re: Dave Mustaine dropped the ESP endorsement!

Can you still but the Y2KV from Jackson? Or it has to be ordered via Custom Shop?
 
Re: Dave Mustaine dropped the ESP endorsement!

i believe theres no more y2kv's from jackson. i guess u can try your luck on ebay or something.
