Built by the master luthiers at ESP Custom Shop Japan, this SNAPPER-CTM combines classic aesthetics with modern performance in a thoughtfully commissioned Black Crane build.
A beautifully figured 5mm Flame Maple top is paired with a Roasted Alder body, finished in an elegant Sepia Burst Gloss with subtle Gold Pearl Black-filled grain for added depth and character. The combination offers a timeless appearance while retaining the unmistakable precision of an ESP Custom Shop instrument.
The Roasted Maple neck and Honduran Rosewood fingerboard provide exceptional stability and a smooth, responsive playing experience, complemented by 22 stainless steel frets and a 12"–14" compound radius for effortless playability across the neck.
Tonally, this guitar draws inspiration from vintage HSS classics, pairing Vintage Hot Stack Plus and Classic Stack Pluspickups with the iconic Seymour Duncan '78 Humbucker. The result is outstanding clarity, dynamic response and classic rock character, while maintaining the quiet performance of stacked single coils.
Finished with an anodized gold aluminium pickguard, ESP Flicker III tremolo and Gotoh MG-T locking tuners, this is a Custom Shop instrument designed for players who appreciate refined craftsmanship with a timeless voice.
