I purchased this fine instrument from a former ESP endorser.
This is a made-in-Japan ESP model, NOT an LTD. First rate construction. You'll like how it plays and how it sounds.
The relic look turned me off at first, but I've come to kind of like it. I've purchased new basses and would fret about any mark on it. With this bass, who cares.
Terrific condition, no modifications.
As for the cigarette burn on the headstock. I bought two of these basses from the same person, and they both have the same burn mark at the same place (see photo). I found that odd, as photos of the bass on the internet never have the burn mark. Also, the mark is not under the finish, while all the other factory-made marks are under the finish. The person I bought it from said they both came that way. Regardless, the mark is there but really doesn't look out of place given the factory treatment.
Free shipping in the continental U.S. Elsewhere, ask. Probably won't ship internationally unless the buyer makes it easy for me.
Thanks for looking!
