Built by the master luthiers at ESP Custom Shop Japan, this one-off Snapper pairs a dramatic 5mm Buckeye Burl topwith a lightweight Swamp Ash body, finished in our exclusive Bushido Brown Satin treatment with hand-filled black grain detailing.
The roasted maple neck and ebony fingerboard provide exceptional stability and a fast, effortless playing experience, while 22 stainless steel frets and ESP's T-5 Ultimate Access heel offer unrestricted access across the entire fingerboard.
Tonally, this build combines a Seymour Duncan Whole Lotta Humbucker in the neck with a '59/Custom Hybrid in the bridge, delivering everything from warm vintage character to articulate modern drive. Direct-mounted pickups, the ESP Flicker III tremolo and Gotoh MG-T locking tuners complete a professional-grade instrument built for both stage and studio.
Finished with ESP's renowned attention to detail, this is a highly individual Custom Shop build created exclusively for Black Crane.
