Exhibition Limited Series 2023

One-Of-A-Kind Guitars Crafted by the Master Luthiers at the ESP Custom Shop

When musicians around the world think of ESP, one of the first things that comes to mind is the extraordinary skill and craftsmanship of the master luthiers who spend their lives perfecting the art of guitar design at our Custom Shop in Tokyo, Japan. In addition to the flawless instruments they make for our customers’ custom orders, each year they are also allowed to push their own creativity to the maximum level and build the guitars of their own dreams. The result is the annual ESP Exhibition Limited Series that represents some of their best work ever, on display as a collection of fine art in the form of musical instruments.

These guitars feature elements like ESP’s most rare and coveted wood stocks, special wood processing, experimental painting techniques, and unique hand-built hardware. Only one of each model has been created. Contact the ESP dealer listed on each model for purchase information.
