ESP 6 String LTD M-1 Custom '87 Electric Guitar, Candy Apple Red, Right-Handed (LM1CTM87CAR)

The ESP journey began in 1975 as a small repair shop in Tokyo, but it was not until the mid-'80s that the company's guitars and basses gained global recognition. The LTD '87 Series is a faithful recreation of the instruments from ESP's 1987 catalog, and the LTD M-1 Custom '87 is a prime example.

Based on the legendary original ESP M-1 model, the LTD M-1 Custom '87 features a neck-thru-body construction, providing fast access to the highest frets. Its comfortable alder body and three-piece extra thin U-shaped maple neck are designed for speed and smooth playability.

The M-1 Custom '87 is equipped with a Floyd Rose 1000 bridge without a recess route, allowing for a seamless transition from the body to the strings. A single Seymour Duncan Distortion TB-6 pickup, with a push-pull control for coil splitting, and an EMG PA-2 boost switch offer a versatile range of tones, from smooth to raw power.

Available in three distinct finishes - Black, Dark Metallic Blue, and Candy Apple Red - the LTD M-1 Custom '87 is a true testament to ESP's legacy and commitment to crafting exceptional instruments.

The construction of the LTD M-1 Custom '87 includes a neck-thru-body design, an alder body, a three-piece maple neck, and a Macassar ebony fingerboard. The bridge is a Floyd Rose 1000, and the pickup is a Seymour Duncan Distortion TB-6. The strings used are D'Addario XL120 (.009/.011/.016/.024/.032/.042).

Overall, the LTD M-1 Custom '87 is a meticulously designed and crafted guitar that pays homage to ESP's storied history while offering modern features and a versatile tone that will appeal to players of all genres.
