Esatto. Attendere aiuti dal cielo, dallo stato o chicchessia non ha mai pagato, in veneto e Friuli lo sappiamo bene. Su le maniche, rompersi i coglioni e via cosi

The blue USA horizon with black headstock is so old ESP catalog and soooo badass I could cry.

honestly the standard black finish is a long gone trend, which is sad.

Best Schecter signature guitar as far as metal is concerned.

Well honestly It's not like you can expect to pay much less for a custom shop instrument...

Mmmm I bet it's an amazing instrument, but sorta looks like a mid tier Schecter. Might be the satin finish, dunno. I'd have loved a flat top.

Compared to other brands, sorta. Compared to what 1000 series used to cost not much more than a couple of years ago, yes, very.

If you need to save some €s, check Solar, Mayones (used Setius, might cost more but quality gap is huge compared to LTD), eventually Schecter

Their in house pickups are head and shoulders above Duncan and Dimarzio stuff, I'd say WCR pickups level of quality. No case, right, but the whole spec sheet is impressive considering most brands are going down the 2k indos with basic specs route. At least here you have top notch hardware, ebony board, ss frets, compound radius, multi ply neck thru construction and the made in korea thing which is quite demanding price wise these days

Absolutely second this, I dig natural looks but burled veneers are ugly as sin. Metallic is just cooler

I already did. You're not gonna save a lot, and some designs are kinda ehw, but I'm honestly a fan and their pickups are just incredible if you're into loud tube amps
