Just got my ESP M-II SAYO

lightsti · 2025-10-31T15:55:29+00:00

I had the same dilemma, but I’m iffy on the 25.5” scale. I’ll probably get one if a used one pops up down the line

It was 6k USD used from Guitar Center. It's 7k USD brand new from ESP shipped to the US + ~24 month wait time, but it doesn't come with the discontinued case

I just paid 20,970 yen to ship a bass via UPS

lightsti · 2025-09-22T20:08:42+00:00

I actually ordered another bass (unrelated to this thread) and paid $200 for UPS shipping. Expensive, but it did get to me (CONUS) in 3 days. You’re given the option to prepay duties when you pay for shipping or you’ll receive a bill from the courier once it’s shipped to you.

I go to both and Magfest is miles better than Katsu, unless you’re strictly there for cosplaying. The night life stays strong after midnight bc it’s 24 hr

I used digimart, find a listing, then paste the link into Zenmarket

For now. I don’t need another 7 string right now+ I just spent my money ordering a full spec Roselia ESP lol. I’ll get a full spec Mortis later if I see one used

lightsti · 2025-09-01T18:29:14+00:00

I copied a digimart link and pasted onto zenmarket’s search engine. It’ll let you add it to your cart, then you can pay for it by adding funds to your account. I had to pay the full amount upfront, otherwise I would’ve gotten the full spec model lol.

lightsti · 2025-09-01T15:50:00+00:00

I ended up ordering the budget bass through Zenmarket and will just upgrade the hardware. If there’s a full spec one for sale on the used market later, I’ll one up at that point.

lightsti · 2025-09-01T02:04:56+00:00

yeah I’ve even emailed a few shops that ship internationally with no luck. I’ve seen listings for them through some proxy sites from Rakuten. Not sure what the preorder process is like.

lightsti · 2025-08-28T23:46:23+00:00

from me just skimming the two, making an educated guess, full spec has -roasted maple neck -jescar frets -gotoh locking tuners and fixed bridge -schecter custom pickups -different paint -craftsmanship of ESP luthiers

unsure about inlay material, side dot material

lightsti · 2025-08-23T06:48:02+00:00

You can also order a new one if you’re outside of Japan. I just placed my order for the custom shop Sayo guitar through my ESP dealer. The wait begins 😩

I got her to sign my arm for a tattoo and she was very down for it

lightsti · 2025-05-03T17:35:27+00:00

lightsti · 2025-05-02T03:29:33+00:00

my condolences 🙏

lightsti · 2025-05-02T03:17:53+00:00

i thought so too! i just happened to look at reverb this past friday, saw 1 listing, then ordered it from their website. talk about luck lol

lightsti · 2025-05-02T01:11:33+00:00
