Hey Guys,
This week, I came across an awesome looking guitar on the private German eBay that I just had to get. It's a partscaster with an 80s ESP neck and a custom-made flame maple body with a nitro finish. It has a genuine 80s Floyd Rose and 3 80s Seymour Duncan Pickups, the humbucker being a 59B-M with 8k output, which I immediately replaced haha. I'm looking for an ESP SH-100 for the neck.
It looks to me like the neck was a non Floyd neck and was then converted to the locking nut. I know that the truss rod was once modded to a wheel and then returned to stock, hence the replaced rosewood square and the slight cutout in the maple underneath. The logo sits on top of the finish and doesn't have the copyright "R". The rosewood fretboard is notably thinner than the one on my M1 Reverse and the original neck screw holes are also all aligned which means it wasn't on a body with the contoured neck joint like on the M1 Reverse. What do you think this neck was on?
