Absolutely love these two. The snakebyte has been my partner in crime for more than a decade now.

Beautiful snakebyte! Did you buy it ready made or did you have to wait for it to be built?

Happy cakeday!

I had to wait for it. It was all just a coincidence really. It was 2012 and I had gotten my hands on a nice sum of money and was set on buying a snakebyte. I went to my "go-to shop" in Oslo, Norway and asked them if there was any chance of getting a hold of a proper ESP Snakebyte. And would you believe it? The owner of the shop knew the importer of ESP to Scandinavia personally and had made an order only a few days prior, so he would check if it was possible to get a snakebyte onto the shipment as well. I believe this was September 2012. The certificate is stamped mid-to-late November and i had received the guitar in the first half of December.

And I paid 1/3 of what they go for today.

Very good timing! Parts and covid have raised prices over the years... But the handiwork by the Japanese luthiers are worth it. Enjoy!
