Why do people say this guitar is a fake Chinese replica ?

This is my original ESP MX 250 (year 2003 I believe) that I use for all the Hetfield parts on my Metallica cover videos and became one of my most special guitars that I own. Maybe I’ll do a in depth review of it. !
Im not just showing off the guitar or anything just sharing a little clip of me practicing rhythim guitar the other day and im sure some of you would enjoy watching (there are many guitars that I’d love to own and there aren’t any videos to check them out unfortunately)
Thanks for your continued support 🤘

I don’t know or care if that guitar is “fake.” As long as she sounds good, stays in tune long enough to get through a song, doesn’t fall apart, and doesn’t periodically electrocute you, that’s all that really matters. Oh! And it’s also nice when the fret edges don’t cut your fingers.

Even with a guitar being fake, you can always make it play really well if you know a thing or two

dude you need a full cover of Damage inc, you’ve got the tone and your playing is so accurate it’s amazing

It is because you took the truss rod cover off. I have a couple of MX's myself and yes... with the truss rod cover off they look "weird". Plus there are so many fakes out there that when people see anything that looks slightly off, they think it is fake. Great playing dude.

Probably because of how rare and expensive they are bro. I have 2 of them made by RRR custom and I couldn’t be happier. Sadly the ESP ones are becoming more and more unobtainable

I have a fake Chinese explorer (cause I don't have $30K to throw away at a guitar) and I got some work done on it by a luthier, I changed the pickups, and it plays better than any of my other guitars. Nothing wrong with a fake explorer. Sure I wish I had a real one like yours, but even if I won the lottery, I couldn't have one anyway cause I'm left handed 😂

Because they're jealous and probably don't realize their epiphones were all made in China too

You know you’ve got a real unicorn on your hands when everybody refuses to believe it’s the real deal.

I have a cheap copy guitar from the 80's, my black "Sticker V". I bought it with a trade in about $150 total back in highschool around 1990 because it was a black V with a whammy and we had a band already. It still works and plays lots of Metallica and Slayer and stuff 40 years later and I have had ZERO done to it... not even a professional set up in all that time. IT does have a Kahler bridge and Grover tuners though.

I have a Chinese wolf to man ESP and with a proper set up, refret, and REAL emg pick ups. It sounds fuckin great.

Rather have a fake guitar knowing I play better than some bozo who worries more about spending thousands of dollars on an original. If you spend that kind of money on an instrument and can back it up with skill, then hats off to you

I believe it's because since Gibson doesn't want ESP to make the same guitars as them, they discontinued making it. And now, in the day, people are trying to look for it, and all they found was a Chinese copy of the guitar.

So what! James’ OGV was a replica, and it didn’t stop him from making sick music 🤘

I think people say it’s fake because of how white it still is. Most white esp mx guitars are yellowed by now.
