serial Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 i just ordered a custom made, G&L ASAT and i'm hoping to liquidate a couple of my guitars to pay for it.ESP Tele Custom:i just know i'll regret selling this one- early 80's MIJ 400 Series now called the Vintage Series, bound body, maple board. if you know what this is, you know how good they are. with gig bag, $450e-me for JPGSComing from a certified Tele Custom freak, these are really nice ones. Can't say I'm able at the moment to pick up a new toy, but I'd be interested in seeing pics on the chance I could be tempted...
Scooter Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 I have an 80's ESP Tele w/Floyd, but it was called a "Horizon" for whatever reason. Go figure.
tomteriffic Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 Had one. Fantastic guitar. David E has it, the last I heard. Somebody get this, it's a helluva Telly

KH Guitar Freak Posted November 29, 2007 Posted November 29, 2007 I have an 80's ESP Tele w/Floyd, but it was called a "Horizon" for whatever reason. Go figure.Interesting, I thought they were called Eclipses???Cause that's what they were called until the ESP LP style singlecuts were called Eclipses, then the "original" Eclipses disappear from the scene...

But who knows?I reckon it was strictly for the Japanese market, I don't know whether anyone outside Japan today can order one, I quite doubt that happening...

JohnnyThunders Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 OK - Now you HAVE to send/post pics of it! It's my first Tele and polar bear. Ok, just kidding on the polar bear.
cmatthes Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 JT:Did you just score this one? That's BEAUTIFUL.
JohnnyThunders Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 JT:Did you just score this one? That's BEAUTIFUL.Yep
cordroad Posted December 3, 2007 Posted December 3, 2007 JT:Did you just score this one? That's BEAUTIFUL.YepWay to go JT. I was close but just couldn't do the blue. Give us the usual report, please.
JohnnyThunders Posted December 17, 2007 Posted December 17, 2007 As far as a tone report I have no reference when it comes to Tele's. But wow it sure is articulate compared to all my other guitars. It's a little nosiy with high-gain but wow it rocks on my lower gain Halo channel on my peters and really livens up my darker Matamp. I'm ususally a bridge player as necks are usually too muddy or it's my crappy hearing. But on this one it has some weird cool vibe going. The middle sounds cool and the bridge is twangy. I like the overall sound but the maple neck is completely different than I'm used too also the neck is rather big. I'm going to bang on it some more until I either bond with it or it's gone! It's sold already???
