ESP is one of Japan's leading guitar brands, earning worldwide fame alongside Fender and Gibson.
The company is supported by many professional artists, and IKUO, Hidekazu Hinata, Kazuhiko Nakamura, and others are known to use the company's basses.
This model is the signature model of Toshiya of the rock band DIR EN GREY.
It features a flowing body shape that looks like a Thunderbird motif.
The pickups are Seymour Duncan SJB-1, which may be hard to recognize due to the cover.
The sound is surprisingly JB-like, with sharp nuance.
The sharp yet powerful sound when pushed with the EQ is appealing.
Controls are master volume, treble, and bass, with the remaining one pot being a dummy.
We can modify this to be a passive tone, if you like. (There is a charge for this service.)
Tuners and bridge are GOTOH.
Although not visible due to the crush, the neck is 3P maple, which shows the attention to detail.
The body is Alder.
The frets are roughly 80% remaining.
The truss rod is in good working order.
The neck is in good condition.
The condition of the body and paint surface is generally scattered with scratches and 1~3mm dents. There is one paint crack on the neck pocket. The color is slightly tarnished and yellowed.
No clear modification points were found.
