Description:
An all original, very clean 2000 ESP Custom MX250 crafted by the ESP Custom Shop in Japan, imported directly from Tokyo. Identical to the famous all black model as played by James Hetfield throughout the late 80s and 90s. This most likely belonged to a collector and seems to have seen almost no use. ESP stopped taking orders outside of Japan for these "forbidden headstock" models quite some time ago and ended all production of them in 2021.
This one shows a small 1/2" finish scratch on the back of the body by the neck heel, but it does not penetrate the finish and is purely a cosmetic issue. There is also a couple small dings on the top edge of the body that have been professionally touched up and are hardly noticeable at all. Besides that, only a few very minor surface marks, but no other notable blemishes or damage. Almost zero fret wear Mahogany body, maple neck, ebony fretboard, all black hardware, EMG 60 in the neck and EMG 81 in the bridge.
This is one for the collectors; this might be one of the cleanest example of this rare gem you'll find. Overall a nearly 30 year old collector's item in excellent condition, And an incredible playing guitar.
Has been carefully and thoroughly inspected and set up by our tech. Includes original ESP soft case.
