Because Jackson was full of themselves and wanted him to wait 3 years for a new one? And wouldn't give him what he really wanted?

The ESPs were made in 8 months and have his custom specs.

I can find real ESPs and LTDs. I love both. The sub-400 series is okay beginner stuff. The 400 and above is great.

If money permits I might buy a real ESP Bass for myself soon.

Yes, Yes they do. I think ESP guitars are good once they are above a certain level.

The closest Guitar Center to me doesn't carry ESP or LTD for some reason. If I drive 40 minutes to the Mayfield SamAsh, then I can find both. I like the Viper 400.
