ESP M1 NTB £1250 York

[80Hz]

Here's a rare chance to grab an ESP Standard Series M1 in satin black. Made in Japan, original ESP logo pre M-II brand change. Serial number suggests it's a 2008.

 

This has been in storage since I stopped pretending I could shred and switched to bass 😄

 

Moderate finish and fretboard wear, moderate wear on hardware, particularly the bridge where the black paint is wearing off, couple of chips and dings in the finish.

 

Pickup has been changed to an EMG GTV (Glenn Tipton Vengence), which is a tweaked EMG 81. The guitar had an EMG 85 when I bought it which will be included in the sale (it would have had an EMG 81 originally).

 

Action is very low. Frets could use a polish.

 

ESPs seem to go for funny money these days, so I think this is appropriately priced given the full fat pedigree and genuine play wear.

 

Includes a decent Charvel hard case.

 

Pick up preferred from York.
