Hey everyone. As many or most of you may know, I am a total Dave Mustaine fanboy and love V guitars. I own a Jackson King V Pro and a newly acquired ESP E-II Arrow 7 string (which is mostly used as a 6 string).
I've been GAS-ing for a KV1 ever since I saw it and was attracted to it's uniqueness. It's hardware is quite unique. Finally, after 6 years, I have the finances to buy one. But, they are quite rare, and the version I want with the LSR tuners is even rarer. I found this one in Italy. But, it's condition is not so good. And the price is, OK to say the best. Here are many pictures of the guitar. It's a fixed Kahler Bridge (3310 APM) and locking LSR tuners. The fine tuner of the high string seems to be at a very weird angle, and the nut of the guitar seems weird too. Something is just not right. The price I am getting is 1500 euros, and the sell mint for $2500-3000, which is around 2500-2800 Euros. I'd just like your thoughts and comments and discuss further. I have been wanting this guitar for ages, but, given the price for a mint condition guitar (if it does pop up, they've been coming up for sale less often with each year that has passed by) it seems to be a good price but there are some things really wrong with the guitar. So, help me out.
Also, what strap buttons are these? Schallers?
I've got a few more images of the guitar. And full body shots are only on the website of the shop that's selling it. If you want, I'll link it later
Thanks for reading through the long post. Will wait for your comments, and opinions.
