ESP was founded in 1975 in Tokyo, Japan a one of the world's first "Custom Order Guitar Shops" building only
hand-crafted fine instruments from hand selected high quality timbers according to the player's requirements. Since
then ESP has continued to build "one of a kind" dream guitars and basses with the same passion and commitment
to their craft that the ESP Custom Shop was built on in 1975.
There are no limitations on ESP custom orders. Your custom instrument will be built from scratch to your
specifications in the ESP Custom Shop, totally hand-crafted by their skilled master craftsmen and women. All
players have differing tastes when it comes to finish, feel, hardware, and most importantly, tone. If you've
tired of looking for the instrument that satifies your requirements then it's time to think about an ESP Custom
Shop guitar or bass.

to create your own unique ESP Custom Shop instrument.

You will receive a price quote from bmusic in a couple of days. (If more detailed information is required to quote an exact price
you will be contacted.) If the quote is to your satisfaction then it's on to Step 3. If you're not satisfied you can request
another quote from the Custom Shop. There is no limit on the amount of quotes you can request and absolutely no obligation
to buy once you request a quote. |
| Step 3 |
If you're ready to rock double check your specifications and let us know
you are ready to go ahead. A deposit is required before officially placing Custom Shop orders. Deposit and payment
terms will be negotiated at the final stages of the Custom Shop Order process through bmusic. |

Around 4 to 8 months later (delivery time can differ dependant upon specification)
your dream guitar becomes a reality and it's in your hands! |
