WTB: ESP Explorer (see post)

[Blitzie]

Title says it all. I'm looking for my Holy Grail.

I'm in a fortune financial position right now and the time is finally right for me to start kicking the tires on a Hetfield Explorer.

Interested in MX-220, MX-250 or LTD EXP. Heavily prefer the white versions but will entertain black ones.

Also would definitely entertain a Ken Lawrence as well.

Located at zip code 06492. Would love to do something "local", and I'm willing to drive several hours if need be.

If anyone has one for sale or knows of any, let me know!

My budget is not limitless but I believe it is enough to snag one. Let's do this!

Would you mind sending me a PM and telling me what you sold them for? I'm trying to ballpark how much they're going for these days.

If that's not something you're comfortable with, I totally understand!

if they are from the 90s they have been fetching $9-10k plus depending on condition. I seen a beat to crap mx250 from 1997 sell for 7500 recently and a ok or decent 90s model sell for 9500 on reverb the other day. I have a couple of them but don’t know if I could part with them. I may be getting in a ESP exp soon If interested hit me up.

Unfortunately, yes. No longer in production.
