ultra rare! producted for the japanese market between 2000 and 2003. less than 30 pieces in japan only! this guitar is 100% brand new. and when i say brand new it means "factory condition". no dings, no scratches or anything. totaly verified (electronics, frets, set-up...) at the esp custom shop in tokyo 1 month ago. it sounds just enormous. the mod emg 18v is installed and can be switched on/off very quickly. wonderful thick quilted maple top, selected mahogany body, neck-thru etc... this is the best custom shop quality you can get from japan. sold with esp flight case (not the usual hard case). url url url url http://img212.imageshack.us/img212/1039/resizeof011nn9.jpg
