jesus.......that's a new one. Only accept cheques? You know who you're dealing with when cash becomes unacceptable this must be bureaucracy in its worst manifestation.

Anyways, have a great weekend with your new baby!

What happens if you don't own a chequebook? Do you get it tax free?

What would happen if the check bounced? Would they come back to your house and steal your guitar back?

*Looks around shiftily*

I'm trying to sign up on members.boards.ie at the moment. Fingers crossed, should have them up soon.

I tried to send them to freakonaleashx but when they took more than thirty-six hours to attach I kind of gave up. :rolleyes:

Nice. Just to let you know, you won't be able to get ANY warrentee work done on it in this country. And that Cali dealer could loose their dealership if ESP found out about them exporting guitars. ESP don't take kindly to it.

Ah right. Point still stands though about warrantee work though. I was reading over the ESP UK forums that a bloke bought a EC-1000 from Thomann that came without a pickup cover and no hard case. All 1000 series guitars come with cases.

yeah, well the guitar will arrive a month or so before i do, which means that on the offchance that something is wrong there will be time to have it seen to and fixed. Plus the guy who its shipping to is very good mates with the dealer so it will be sorted, hopefully!!
I just gotta worry about customs robbing me blind!!

Some people love them, some hate them. I've never tried them myself.

All explorers should have 81/60 tbh.

Hey denis

For EMG 81/85s you need to do some body work to hold a battery cavity for the pickups, are you putting it on the Ibanez or Ltd?

That's incorrect Jayce. You do not need a battery cavity. You can wrap the battery in the foam that comes with the pickups and place it in the electronics cavity.
