ESP M-I with banana neck - does anyone know much about this guitar?
Hi guys
I've had this guitar stored in my attic for quite a while. Found it yesterday whilst having a clear out. Other than it being an ESP M-I, does anyone here know much about this guitar, such as model, approximate age / date produced, value etc?
Searching on google hasn't brought up much like this yet (or perhaps I'm just doing it wrong!).
Anyway, any other knowledge on this guitar would be great.
Cheers!

Thanks clt, I have one of those from 86. They're m1 customs. The m1 standard I'm referring to looks like the George lynch tiger stripe except with a fender start type bridge/trem. And a rosewood board.

Hey Anthony,
Not sure if you saw my message yesterday, but is this more in line with what you're looking for? Not sure if that's the bridge you want.

cool guitar, sadly not worth that much, would have been produced in the mid 80's, very similar to a kramer pacer american and worth about the same. Esp was making a lot of guitars for kramer at one point, so they tend to have very similar setups and body shapes. These typically show up with a single pickup in the bridge, two pickups is less common, also it a lot more common to see these with a floyd rose. What is the color? I you get a chance post a picture of the neck from the side, I would like to see the thickness of the rosewood) and a picture of the back, and the tone and volume pots.
