this ESP received the riccio rejuvenation on September 27th, 2023:

- hardware and electronics were lubricated and fastened.
- frets were polished with a fret eraser.
- purifying formula was applied to the fingerboard, followed by a marination of lemon oil. after the fingerboard had absorbed an adequate amount of lemon oil, the excess was blended and wiped away.
- the rest of the instrument was purified with a curated formula, then polished with a lint free, microfiber cloth.
- new strings were installed, acclimated, and tuned to pitch.
- truss rod and bridge were calibrated for optimal action and intonation.
- pickup height was dialed in for an ideal amplified signal.
- tested to ensure professional performance.

it lives in a smoke-free environment.

condition: excellent
the 4th string’s tuner does not lock.
the bass pickup ring has a chip in its bottom right corner.
