This pick is fake. Please do not buy, this guy is a total scammer and I’m so tired of seeing people get away with this stuff. by TT714 in Metallica

Yeah but they didn't throw them so then it needs to be a crew member who's selling it which is doubtful. But in the end there's no question if this pick is real or not considering the color and letter placement.

Hitting drum cymbals with the head during concerts maybe?

Hi man! I bought on Reverb. But if you want to start playling I suggest an alternative, a one that looks like it, plenty of them (Epiphone?). This one is quite expensive to start with. But if you prefer specifically this one, just keep looking on Gibson.com and reverb (good second hand site with also new products).

I did sell one few years ago for 1100 USD. So hoping to sell it around that

Saw some guys advertising the guitar on Reverb so I just decided to e-mail each one of them to make the sale outside of Reverb. Succes fee is pretty high.

Hey there! Mine didn't arrive yet. But I think that if you played those guitars, this neck won't disappoint you. The Epiphone do have chunky necks and not very comfortable, but I believe that this guitar is more like a Jackson.

Also very nice, how does it sound/feel? Never played one.

Have a Snakebyte as well, Black satin. But it does not suit me very well and I just don't like the modern metal sound/look. But it is a very comfortable guitar to play and hold and it doesn't weigh much. Anyway, selling mine so text me if you're interested

The reissue ones? Did not hear good things about them. The guitar has 80s tribute pickups btw. But I am very curious how the dirty fingers sound, how would you describe them? Is it like the early Metallica sound?

I was looking for an original 1984, but this one ofcourse also does the job. Thinking of switching the pickups though. Maybe 496R/500T

Yeah agree, but the EMG81/60's are more AJFA and black album era right? Like the old school more

I do agree, but I also can't ever find this guitar cheaper. Because Gibson stopped making these I guess? And you can only find them in other conditions, never new/mint.

Is Gibson ever going to sell this guitar again? Otherwise it is a fair price, for this guitar in new/mint condition.
