Up for sale, a 2000s Edwards by ESP “Black Beauty” model E-LP-92CD in exceptional, 100% original condition and in perfect working order. An uncommon instrument made in Japan under ESP's "Edwards" banner, this guitar is a faithful iteration of the LP Custom "Black Beauty" platform with a genuine slab ebony fretboard, mahogany neck, mahogany body, and carved maple cap.

The pickup complement includes a pair of USA-made Seymour Duncan humbuckers; with an SH-1 PAF in the neck position and an SH-4 at the bridge. The SH-1 PAF neck pickup was designed in the spirit of Gibson's 1950s "Patent Applied For" humbucker, with sweet sustain, tight lows, and just enough midrange to deliver full-sounding chords while retaining clarity and articulation. The SH-4 JB bridge pickup is Duncan’s original hot-rodded humbucker, with powerful low end, crisp highs, and a slight midrange bump that adds crunch and chunk to heavy chords and translates to a singing, vocal-like quality when playing melodic lines. This Edwards is lightweight at 9lbs, professionally setup here at Mike & Mike’s Guitar Bar with 45-100 strings, low action, and accurate intonation.
