Today i got a one-off ESP EX Explorer finished in a stunning Yellow Crackle custom order paint job, built in 2007 at the ESP Takada Factory in Japan; the same shop responsible for many of ESP’s most sought-after artist builds.

If you're a collector of MIJ ESP customs, a player seeking a high-end metal machine, or someone looking for a completely unique Explorer-shape ESP, this guitar is a perfect candidate.

Overall in very good condition for its age (2007).
The finish is factory-original and looks incredible — the yellow crackle pops beautifully and is unlike anything ESP offers today. Minor signs of use may be presen. Fully functional and stage-ready.

If you need more photos, message me please.

This is a collector-level instrument and the only one known Yellow Crackle finish on an EX from the Takada Factory.
