This is from a guy who saw them perform..


"There is a copy of the "Wildchild" Rhoads (as seen in the "Everytime I Die" video). It had the same specs except for a few cosmetic details.

1. It didn't say "Wildchild" on the upper wing.
2. It had ESP Arrowheadinlays.
3. ESP Pointy headstock
4. It didn't have real bevels, so, the yellow beveled line was just painted on. And the "bevels" were kinda thick.

The black Rhoads with the pinstrips, on the other hand, looked pretty much exactly like the first one from "Tokyo Warharts", except for that it had green bevels (the old one had white or gold pinstrips, right?).

But this one had the Jackson headstock, and I think it had bevels, but I couldn't see a logo.

They were both neckthrough's, naturally."

I like the original Rhoads much more, the esp looks like a cheap copy.
 
hmm.. doesn't look as good as I'd expected.. my ESP V (the king v model) has the same neck and I think the arrwoheads look good..

the body looks really small.. hmm.. maybe ESP will release a mr. laiho signature axe.. because they don't have a V in their regular line up.. hm maybe in 2004..
