i'm sorry but there are a few things about your post that are making my head cave in.
first that's not quite true and accurate about the LTD, you kind of screwed yourself out of a better guitar by jumping the gun. 4 of the 6 available Kirk Hammett models come equipped with EMGs and Alder bodies (as opposed to Basswood). they seemed to have cleaned the site quite a bit in the years since i bought my LTD too, i remember damn near 30 KH models at one point and again, you didn't have to go 'that' high to get something that shipped with EMGs.
also, what's the point of paying extra for a left handed instrument only to turn around and pay even more to have it setup like a cheaper, standard instrument?

this is a common misconception and it's very apparent if you pay close attention to his hands in live clips.
