Up for sale, a 2000s Edwards by ESP E-LP-98LTC in excellent, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. A discontinued instrument produced in Japan by ESP under the Edwards banner, this guitar is a faithful iteration of the LP Custom Black Beauty platform with a genuine ebony fretboard, mahogany body, carved maple cap, a nitro lacquer Ebony finish, and all-gold hardware.
The guitar is loaded with its stock pair of USA-made Seymour Duncan humbuckers, with an SH-1 ‘59 PAF in the neck position and SH-4 JB at the bridge. The SH-1 ‘59 neck pickup was designed in the spirit of the original PAF, with sweet singing sustain, wound to deliver full-sounding chords and midrange-forward attack. The SH-4 JB bridge pickup is Duncan's original hot-rodded humbucker: the low end is full and powerful, the highs are crisp and detailed, and there’s an upper-midrange bump that adds crunch and chunk to heavy chords that translates to a singing, vocal-like quality when playing single notes or solos. This E-LP-98LTC weighs 11lbs 1oz, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 10-46 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
