ESP Custom Shop King V KV2! - 1995

International buyers: please contact me for an accurate shipping quote!

This isn't something you'll see everyday! It's an ESP Custom Shop (yes, you read that right) King V!

Jackson-shaped "lawsuit" Concorde headstock with the "ESP Custom Guitars" stamp on the back. ESP stamped Schaller licensed Floyd Rose (recessed), ESP branded tuners, abalone dots on the rosewood board. EMG 81 in the bridge pickup, 85 in the neck.

For whatever reason, no strap button holes were ever drilled into the body (it is a custom guitar).

1995 based on the dates of the pickups ('93 and '95) and serials. This would place it in line with when ESP made the Kerry King KKV models (of which only 50 black Vs were made). The neck pocket has a T serial which suggests it was made at the Takada factory (ESP's factory for artist customs).

Good condition, comes with an equally rare ESP branded King V case and trem bar. 7lbs 7oz on my scale.

Wear (more pictures available on request, descriptions are to the best of my ability):

• 2 ~1.5cm finish scratches by the bottom right neck screw
• Hairline marks/nicks throughout the body, headstock face
• ~1cm hairline mark on the body, bass side of the neck pocket
• ~0.3cm ding on the body top, bass side between the pickups
• Nick on the headstock's top edge
• Metal finish wear on the hardware (bridge, screws, etc.)
• Some finish dents on the ends of the horns
• The bottom of the case's farthest right latch has been replaced, minor wearon the outer tolex
• One neck screw looks newer than the others
