    srsly i dont know how much does it cost to let metallica play in your backyard, but if i had so much money that i could easily afford a 500k guitar i would let them play in my backyard :D

      Completely agree dude! Two thoughts come to mind.
      1st - he’s been told by his wife to sell some guitars so he’s priced it to not sell 😂
      2nd - he’s hoping to get 500k usd in order to have Metallica play in his backyard 😂😂

      @@GuitarHoarder yeah, I may buy one off that site? I've been looking at them. The only thing is you have to upgrade it. Bone nut, 500k pots, locking machine head tuners. Better pick ups. Most have a fake emg pick up cover and no 9volt battery port. So those are the fakes. Active emgs need a 9 volt to work. They make copies in Chinese guitar factories. Tons of sellers that make this model with fake ESP logos on them.

      If it’s fake it’s more likely a std but real MX-250 with a low serial number that has had the fret board reworked to have the man to wolf inlays
      This guy had this guitar before those companies starting making those fakes if memory serves me correctly.
      I’m also lead to believe that James actually may have more than one of these MTW explorers.
      There was more than one MX-220 EET-FUK guitar built too!! Depending on the serial number some had slight differences. Like the out-put jack, neck joint.. and some may not have had the volute on the neck James asked them to stop when he found out
      So if the volume knobs are out it really doesn’t mean anything as these can be slight running changes in these things sometimes
      Proven by the MX-220 eet-fuk guitars
