    As a longtime Ibanez enthusiast (I still keep all my Ibanez guitars) I will say that since I bought the ESP EII MII NT7 (natural brown) I’ve been impressed and it’s become my main guitar. Absolutely blown away by ESP. By the way, mine has a satin matte back on the neck. They must’ve did it in 2019 as mine is a 2019 model.

    The difference in satin/gloss necks is because the Purple one is a newer model, and they implemented that "improvement" over the other one. The Dark Brown one was introduced a year prior and didn't have that feature.

      @Les Grossman I just owned an LTD "snapper" sn1000fr and it was amazing. Beautiful, felt great, sounded great, an amazing super strat; but the damn thing had a crack on the neck, had to return it. Not ESPs fault, but guitar center used. This thing was probably the most versatile instrument I have ever played. The SD Pegasus was excellent for downtuning, reacted well to the volume knob, and could handle almost any style. The 2 single coils were hot strat pickups and could go from classic strat to rock or blues.
