There are some guitars that are just plain awesome in every way. This is one of them. I plan to make some of the guitars that I’ve held for years available for sale. I’m truly in love with everything about my AXN Guitars and the few vintage guitars that I’m keeping are just for investment only. That said, every guitar I sell going forward will be truly something that i love just because its a kickass RockNRoll guitar. Every guitar I sell will be something that fully ROCKS!

This ESP does not disappoint. Its a very very early ESP and i’ve been able to date the neck to 1984. This is before ESP made model numbers or even internal company model numbers. Both the body and the neck are a metric width. That means the neck pocket and heel size are in between 2.25” and 2-1/8” the USA standard. I may be the only one in the USA that knows exactly when ESP based in Tokyo in 1984 changed all their manufacturing away from metric measurements.

So I restored this guitar to its new found glory. I put a brand new Floyd Rose Original Germany on it with a beautiful blue AXN Sustain Block. I rewired it with my AXN Guitars wiring scheme and installed an official AXN designed Seymour Duncan JB boasting gold pole screws and appointments mounted on an AXN chromed brass pickup ring… My wiring scheme for AXN Guitars is to use a two wire braided Humbucker with a 500K single volume. This is one of the secrets to why my AXN Guitars create beautiful RockNRoll tone when cranked from through Marshall tubes.

So there it is. A beautifully relic’d ESP witha shredtastic 14” flat fretboard radius a beautiful rosewood neck from 1984 and a prime alder body! By the way this ESP Guitar was/is an ESP made clone of a 1984 pointy Charvel that ESP produced in 1984. ESP saw what Grover Jackson was doing in San Dimas and gave it a shot all the way down to the headstock. Very few ESPs have this exact shape of headstock. This also has a Charvel 1984 neck profile .80” at fret one and .90” at fret 12 and jumbo frets.
