ESP Lynch Tiger help

[uglyfuzzface]

I have had this guitar for a while now and have no idea of the date it was made or anything , I know most of the Tigers seem to have the upward headstock . Anybody know much about dating them or about this model and when the headstock changed ? .
Cheers

I know some of the very first ones had the neck you got.
seen a lot of pics with lynch playing the very same guitar setup. Awesome axe!

 

[59Bassman]

Damn. Would. (The guitar, not George).

Ah, the Kramer Holy Grail neck. Nice.

I think they´ve always looked like that in Japan, and the last ten years or so that market has become much more accessible.

It's bloody heavy mind

Ahhhh thank you , will have a check later

 

[Metlupass2]

It's probably too old to use that site.

 

[uglyfuzzface]

I think it's only got a 6 digit number but will check when I'm home

 

[uglyfuzzface]

Right had a look and it's only got 6 digits and no letters so no idea ,,, any ideas ?

 

[Mailman1971]

Its one of the first run old ones. It wont show up on that chart.
The best ones made in my opinion.

 

[stdio]

Yeah looks kinda old..... you should just put it in the classified. Maybe someone will take it off your hands.

 

[uglyfuzzface]

Ahhhh cool , I better dig out the original pickups then ....

 

[Michi]

That's an awesome looking axe you got there! Very nice.

 

[uglyfuzzface]

Thank you , it's stunning to look at and a dream to play

 

[Mailman1971]

Yeah the original pickups are probably a DDJ.
Pretty sought after.

The later run Kamikazes for sure, but I think regular production runs of these purple tigers ended up with the Screamin Demon pickups, too .
