I mean yeah it has a maple neck and a neck thru body but most noobs don't care for the sound quality it may produce inspite of that. Most people get the kh-202 signature series for $470.
Damn, such a nice guitar, i have a ESP M-II NTB too. I also have a jackson dk2, ibanez prestige RGA121, and gibson sg faded for sale if anyone here is interested!
for a sec I thought you were selling one like this
thats why they are noobs..... $470 is even a bit pricey for KH-202 LTD...
