Why hasn't Jackson sued ESP over their shapes? Gibson sued Ibanez for the Les Paul and SG copies.

Re: Roope Latvala goes ESP...

I mean honestly. They've ripped off the Rhoads, the King V, and the Star. ALL IN THE LAST YEAR!!!

Re: Roope Latvala goes ESP...

The only GUITAR shapes that come to mind that ESP hasn't ripped off other companies are the horrendous Devil Girl and the F Series, and even then, the F Series is a common double-cutaway shape with some jagged edges, and the Devil Girl is a small Explorer shape gone horribly wrong.

Re: Roope Latvala goes ESP...

What the hell? Now he's gone too! This really bugs the crap out of me. First time I'm gonna see COB in the US and not a single Jackson on stage!

...And I really do think Jackson should sue ESP, they rip us off bad man.

Re: Roope Latvala goes ESP...

I hate to say it, but that is one sweet looking guitar. It doesn't look like the Floyd is recessed, either, that itself is killer. I like the banana or hockey stick style headstock. I would never buy one, but I think that as far as Jackson rip-offs go, this is pretty cool...

Re: Roope Latvala goes ESP...

the reason they can't sue is because if it's made in Japan good luck there isn't a lot of copywrite laws over there and they can make anything they want when they want you just can't production run it in the states or canada then theyed get sued for sure but overseas you can make anything you want espguitars.net is way different than espguitars.com [usa] , thats also why jasksonstars gets away with what they do as well and why you can't get em over here except on ebay //Steve

Hmmm....much like Mustaine with his DV8, Roope almost looks miserable in the pics. Makes you wonder whether ESP blackmails guitarists into joining their ranks... [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
