LTD NINJA 600, HOT OR NOT?

Hi everyone, I'm realy considering a v-shaped axe and the Michael Amott sig
caught my attention. I liike the fact that it is a ''tribute'' to the gibson without being a copy. What i dont understand is how expensive it is considering it's a LTD, fond one localy for 1150$, and online for 995$.
A schecter hellraiser 7 with emg's is 750$...sound like a better deal for the money, ( i know i know, dif. model, dif brand but still...)

What's your opinion and what would you consider as an alternative V
without a FR ?

thanks a bunch

The LTD is a VERY well constructed instrument, but i'm not too sure what contributes to the price.

Have you looked at Jackson King V's?

I'd wait to get one of the new models used. Give it some time and you'll be able to find used ones for $700 or so. Or you could go with something like an Edwards.

I owned an LTD Ninja V guitar and I found it to be one of the finest imports I've ever played. Definitely worth every penny. It played and sound incredible. I would definitley jump on one if you could find one for a good price
