No offense, but I assume this was on or around 3k.

If I'm spending 3k on a guitar, I'm getting a Paul Reed Smith.

For 3K I'd go with a Tom Anderson.

I'll take a Hollow Drop Top Classic, Bora-Bora Blue Burst please.

That is a beautiful guitar. Is that a neck through body? Where is the bridge? I have an ESP custom shop from back around 1997 and it is the nicest guitar I have ever played.

ESP makes some really nice guitars. I'm more of a Strat guy. We did have a Japanese made ESP strat style that I was very tempted by.
Speaking of strats, I just replaced the pickups in mine with some custom hand-wound ones. They sound gorgeous. A much fuller sound than I had originally.
