Wow I havent gotten on here in a while haha but... So I've been looking at a Alexi Laiho Signature series ESP and well my parents want let me get one more than about $500.00 to $600.00 and saw some on ebay some said used with no damage I dont mind one with some minor scratches or anything like that and I was wondering is this a good idea to actually get one for cheaper because I was going to later add on better pickups or anything like that IF NECCISARY does anybody know of one or just think its a good enough idea?

so you're asking if it's safe to buy from ebay. i have had many very good experiences with ebay guitars. and i don't see anything wrong with looking to pick a laiho guitar off of ebay for that money.
