Esp usa

[soliloquy]

The ESP USA's are mainly made in USA, although I understand some are MIJ. The ESP Custom Shop ones are MIJ. The LTD's used to be mainly Korean, can't say anymore.
This one is a MIJ Custom Shop deal. (I went back and checked, SW listing says "KH-3 is handbuilt in ESP's Custom Shop in Japan"). They won't ship for months.

the EC1000, EC500, and EC400 line, mostly are made in Korea, but some have transitioned over to Indonesia too now. Wont be surprised if some are also transitioning over to China.

you guys are killing me lol

If I get one, I'll have to order and wait a long time for it to be built. Kinda sucks since I'm lefty and they rarely make these upfront. And when they do it's like a BMW/Audi - loaded with options I don't want to pay for lol

I'm almost custom making a Horizon/ESP-style with Warmoth/Musikraft parts and getting it plek'ed.

Just for fun I configured a lefty Horizon II Neck through string thru on the ESP site. I asked them to do a download of the result. This would probably be a one of a kind. Their configurator doesn't properly show what a lefty body looks like, but hey. The download follows.
