Which Edwards?


Which Edwards guitar do you guys like more? the Kiko Lourieo model or the E-CY-165CTM

http://www.espguitars.co.jp/artist/k...iro/index.html Edit: (blue kiko)
http://www.espguitars.co.jp/edwards/index.html (go to neckthru series side box and go to the 1st guitar) edit: in Blue i'd probably get the 165 in

Re: Which Edwards?


Too much binding on the 165. But the kiko one looks like it's got a sperm inlay . . . decisions, decisions.

Re: Which Edwards?


Damn those Kiko models are expensive

I would consider trying to get a caparison guitar

I am gassing for one but there are some obstacles to conquer first

You sure you didn't look at the full ESP kiko price? That's ~700,000¥(~$7000)
the Edwards is only ~130,000¥ (~$1300).

yeah I so want to pay 7k for an Esp when the like only noticeable difference is the Headstock name (the ESP website shows crappier pics of the Edwards but if you go on like Ikebe it shows real pics, I guess they don't want to make their Esp look like it isnt any different.

Yeah, I was thinking just to save even more and get a Caparison, which makes me realized I shoulda put as the 3rd 1 Caparison.

Re: Which Edwards?


Damn, for the price of the ESP Kiko you could get like 1 Caparison, and 1 of each Edwards..(1 kiko and 1 165) and a J-custom, and still save some cash!!!..Damn, I would be all over that 165 if they made them in lefty..

Re: Which Edwards?


Both look cool, though the binding on the 165 is over the top. I wouldn't know what to choose. I'd probably end up with the 165 because it's cheaper.

Yeah, I cant decide if the 165 has too much on it or what, I might just end up with the Kiko since it has 12-27 scalloped and I would like that for some reason hahaha
