I hate scalpers. There are 3 guitars that have been on the mod shop recently posted locally to me for 2-3x the sale price. Claiming he's had them for years.
Sugizo is a Japanese guitarist and one of the biggest guitarist here in Japan, so that was super funny you said Swedish power metal band hahaha. You do not need his personal permission to get models made, you can order Sugizo custom models here no problem, maybe there was something confused in translation? If you ask ESP Shibuya they should be able to do it no problem, you could even order the same shape but with your own specs.
@@RudyLange yep, any ESP shop will be able to handle any custom order quickly. The Shibuya guys are the ones who deal with local artists directly the most though, even have Luna Sea's ESP guitar tech guy in there almost all the days out of the week. Anyone can order a RD body custom, Dir En Grey's bassist has an RD body bass too if I remember correctly.
Yeah, the diddley bow predates the djent stick by decades. It's just kindof a generic name for a homemade 1-string instrument. It would be more accurate to say the djent stick is a diddley bow. Les Claypool plays a more sophisticated version in Fearless Flying Frog Brigade.
The side eye at your terrible riffs. Man that is sooo freaking funny! 😂. If it was $100 I’d buy it for a friend and then peer pressure them into playing with it. 😂
If the person who carved the guitar would hone his craft, as they clearly have potential, and stick to one theme and keep it pretty minimalist, they could probably get that kind of money or more. They should also learn about trademark laws. It's a one-off fan art thing so it's probably fine, but there are all kinds of issues if this was a for-profit thing,
If there are only 20 of the ESP, then it's a bargain! Actual LOL'd at the heads looking at you while playing and scrutinizing. Really weird too! Kind of like hunting trophies of rock stars.
I'm curious how that bass would sound with the pick-up mounted like that, it's reading such a large area of the string that i would think it sounded like mud.
You’re from Federal Way?? I lived in Seattle from 93-97 & played a few shows in Federal Way. I miss the Seattle of the 90’s. It’s just not the same place anymore when I’ve visited. My first-wife still lives there. She’s awful.
in Lakewood Washington circa around 2010-ish there was this Coffee shop that had my shyt. Yit was a large dark roast Ethiopian with raw espresso shots. Ever had raw espresso?( if no _ raw espresso is where they don't roast the beans so there's more caffeine. Heat destroys caffeine so lighter roasts actually have mo'E¡ caffeine.
Not paying 10Gs, but that Explorer 9 is siiiiick! Is say the price tag is prolly about right. I'd say it's absolutely worth 10 large, I just have kids, so the disposable income has since been disposed. 😆
That Gibson 9-string is not ridiculous at all. That thing peeled my forehead back like a sardine can just looking at it. I shall remember you so that years from now when I have the cashflow, I shall acquire thee.
B. C. Rich used to do a (horribly named) Perfect 10 Bich, which was a six string with an additional 4 strings, to wait for it, make it a 10 string (hence the "Perfect 10" misogyny tie in, see what they did there?) So that Gibson Explorer is not even close to an original idea, but unique to that form factor.
Trogly talked about that Explorer back in July on a mod collection video, it was like 6500 from the mod shop. Pretty neat guitar.

You and Trogly need to go in on the 9 string explorer together. We need it properly documented, then demoed through 20 Dual Recitifer revisions.
This
Sugizo is Japanese, he plays in X-Japan as well as Luna-Sea and his own solo stuff
11:21 "Hendrix" on that guitar looks a lot more like Phil Lynott from Thin Lizzy.
I thought it was Brian May till he got a closer shot 😂😂
Why does Jimi look like Andre 3000 😅

You can probably also try a BIG BOSS for ordering a custom one. The one in Ochanomizu is very good.

@@KairuofficialYup I own Toshiya’s RD-style bass, Edwards version but modded to have a similar EQ and the pickups as the real deal.
@@ThePhantomnaut sick!
@@ThePhantomnaut I have a Takayoshi Ohmura custom Snapper I got from Ochanomizu, such a killer guitar. ESP really is the best imo.
Fluff made "I see that" one of the most biting insults you can hear.
You need a series where you interview the people who end up buying this stuff.
I like that djent stick. Maybe throw a brass knob on it. Cool to have the fret dots. I appreciate that.
Dude that Explorer is RAAAAD
When NIN had their gear purge in 2009 or so, they sold a jackson rhodes v 10 string that was set up about like that explorer.
I definitely thought that carving was Daryl Hall and John Oates.
That carved tele-style guitar is WILD.
And that ESP RD is extremely cool.
That Hendrix looks so DISGUSTED rhat he's there 😂😂😂
He looks spooked.
Wow! These are so great! My new nightly viewing , thank you

the green pick on the Diddly Bow , nice
That explorer is interesting for sure. Marty schalk has one just like it or this may be his. Love these vids!!
“Jimi, hear that?” 😂
The 9 strinf for 10,000 is a bit wierd, but then most of the items you find are off the wall-Great video-Thank you.
the carved tele is super tacky, but better done than i would have expected. as they say, atrocious thought but great execution...
You just know some pothead with more money than sense is going to buy that Mesa.
Jimi side-eye'n like he can't get no relief.
Luna Sea is a japanese band. Sugizo is Yūne Sugihara
Sounds like a crypto currency.
I think he means Esa Holopainen from Amorphis. He has a custom ESP RD.
Small edit, the guitar in the listing is from Sugizo.
@@LtdTaurusyeah Esa’s customs are slightly more “modernized” versions of the RD. All of the RDs are awesome though.
Did you say bye to us twice?? 😂😂😂
Sugizo is a big deal in Japan but I'm not sure I've ever seen him play it.
The side eye at your terrible riffs. Man that is sooo freaking funny! 😂. If it was $100 I’d buy it for a friend and then peer pressure them into playing with it. 😂
Imagine having that creepy Cobain face carved guitar hanging on a wall in a dimly lit room. Just glaring sideways at you all the time! Next listing!
That Gibson 9 string is pretty rad
I was dying at the end!
I totally remember seeing that Explorer on Trogly’s show! 😂
has the series finished? I hope you keep doing these cause it's hilarious!
no no new episode out next week!

Listing 2: *Does It Doom has entered chat*
Someone needs to make a service to rescue these poor defiled guitars

Just bought a Vox AC15. For the price of that Mesa Boogie, I could have bought 10 AC15, and stacked them up like Brian May
Fluff is now the proud owner of an ESP guitar :)
I definitely laughed so hard on the last one 🎸😂
VIII is 8. XIII would be 13.
listing 3 was the worst wastage of a fender i have seen
I had to skip forward on listing 3. I found it unsettling 😕
The first time I have ever had to do that.
Luna Sea is a Japanese band.
This Gibson reminds the BC Rich Bich perfect 10 that Mustaine used to play back in the very early 80s.....
7:00 LOL no! Sugizo is Japanese musician. From Luna Sea band. One of the most influential bands in Japan.
That 9 string Explorer. Yes please
You literally channeled me when describing the EVH monstrosity.
My face hurts from laughing at the Icons of Rock guitar. Epic.
That esp is the sognitute guitar of a japenese guy who played in Lunesea and now X japan
Best one yet! Thanks, Fluff. Peace
Definitely want that Explorer 9
That Explorer is like $1500 too much. they should give you $500 to take it away?
My god! You're killin me! 😂😂😂😂
I thought the carving was of bob ross and one of the kids from hanson.
1:47 .. Message sent to Trogly ;)
I have seen a 9 string acoustic setup like that. It was custom made for a guy in a mariachi group.
Ha! It was in Auburn WA!
R-8! hope to see ya at SUNN O)))
Ok, so are the extra strings tuned to a different note than the ones they’re beside or is it a mandolin tuning situation?
Why have trouble keeping only one g string tuned when you can fight with 2 of them?!
I'm curious how that bass would sound with the pick-up mounted like that, it's reading such a large area of the string that i would think it sounded like mud.
You’re from Federal Way??
I lived in Seattle from 93-97 & played a few shows in Federal Way. I miss the Seattle of the 90’s. It’s just not the same place anymore when I’ve visited. My first-wife still lives there. She’s awful.
There are some weird people out there. Makes me want to take a chisel to my '77 Precision and get artistic.
Luna Sea is a Japanese band I thought?
See if you can get the explorer seller to loan it to you so you can make a video of it since he’s down the street.
in Lakewood Washington circa around 2010-ish there was this Coffee shop that had my shyt. Yit was a large dark roast Ethiopian with raw espresso shots. Ever had raw espresso?( if no _ raw espresso is where they don't roast the beans so there's more caffeine. Heat destroys caffeine so lighter roasts actually have mo'E¡ caffeine.
Someone already mentioned it, but Trogly did cover that Explorer. I believe it was under $7k. Dude is charging $10k plus shipping 😂
BC rich did 9 strings in that same config. Seger makes sick new ones
So is SJ some guy in FL selling custom guitars that someone else builds? I can’t find a website for them just tons of reverb listings.
Jimmy's hair. :)
"Florida man carves guitar"
Hendrix looks like a monster and Cobain looks more like Dave Mustaine on the last guitar 😂
jimmy looks like Lionel Richie lol lol
Not saying to buy the Explorer, but maybe he'll pay you to showcase it on here, or work some deal out idk, i need to hear it lmao
*Next Listing!*
ash body…saw them in ‘68 at the Cow Palace…far out man…
that explorer is fukn god tier as far as the eye can see.
6:00 Oh God Fluff, make it go away. NOT LIKE THIS.
Kurt and Jimmi are wondering why they are on a right-handed guitar. I'm not even sure if that's Jimmi it looks more like Phil Lynot
you can almost buy 3 of those mesa boogies for what he is asking sheesh
Not paying 10Gs, but that Explorer 9 is siiiiick! Is say the price tag is prolly about right. I'd say it's absolutely worth 10 large, I just have kids, so the disposable income has since been disposed. 😆
I'd be willing to bet it won't stay in tune either.
6k usd is still pretty high...
Did you just sign off twice?
I loved the carved faces. Dude had fun with a cnc. Don't trash it?
Listing 4: you accidentally pronounced VIII as 13 instead of 8
LOL before watching. That’s great
I wonder if you could convince that Explorer's owner to let you try it out and film a video.
It's visual jpop
Those are Steinberger tuners
Evh would throw up looking at that guitar
That 9 string Explorer has major Rich Bitch 10 string vibes....
I do like the 9 string Explorer & did see it on Trogly’s show
But that price?
That’s what is ridiculous
I would be very disappointed if Fluff doesn't end up buying the ESP RD
VIII is 8 😉
Nah if I had the money I would just get that Gibson Explorer new off their website for $6,499.
I only drink life after death coffee by "hard core addict".
Troy has shown these , go for it. They should be a good collector investment.
Surprisingly Trog hasn't found that guitar yet! I was thinking the same thing......get Trogly on the case!🧐🤣
Listing no. 4 , you read the Roman numeral as 13. Pretty sure it said 8. Just saying
Why they wana carve Jimi like tht . Come on !
