Nekki Basara Replica Guitar by Arcadia and ESP
LET THE WHOLE WORLD LISTEN TO YOUR SONG! Arcadia is continuing where Yamato left off and is working with famous guitar maker ESP to produce a very limited run of real working replicas of the guitar used by Fire Bomber lead singer, Nekki Basara from Macross 7! Some very dedicated Macross 7 fans are chomping at the bit to own a piece of rock 'n roll history as the first of these guitars has been used by Yoshiki Fukuyama (Basara's singing voice) in concerts! Previously Fukuyama-san had used a fan made custom guitar but this is the real deal by ESP! Preorders for this incredibly limited run item are starting June 5th 2013. How limited? Well for the initial production run, ESP is only making 10! That's one of the reasons why these cost a whopping 350,000 yen or about $3,500. These are set to ship in July of this year.
