The ESP Guitar Company

$5000 in mint condition.

$2000 in poor condition.

Supply and demand baby! The world's gone mad!

Any pics man?? Still for sale??

Cool, thanks man. I never saw it and the last Zorlac I saw was the really beat up one that was posted up here by a member.

Haven't seen one since then, that was a few years ago now I am sure. Not this one by the sounds of it, this one sounded OK.

Anyone intersted in buying a Zorlac?

Buy it now price of US $5250.

I'm curious to see at which price it will go. For a guitar of this age, the condition seems pretty ok from my point of view.

Definitely very interesting to see if it will sell G, but at that price point I don't see it selling anytime soon.

In regards to it's condition, I can understand what you're saying man.

For it's age, it "may" be acceptable to some to have some chips and buckle rash on it etc. After all, it's a 25+ year old guitar that has obviously been played.

I think the price should reflect this also, and I unfortunately don't think it is in this case.

But in saying that also, this guy might be looking at setting the new market price where these Zorlac guitars may sell from now on.

All I need to do now is list my mint condition Zorlac for US $7000 and we have officially set the new price/bench mark for these guitars.................if they both sell of course.

Something else I find interesting is why they switched the position of the 'Skull and Crossbone' inlays from the Zorlac to the KH2?

If I have a chance to meet the guy in Munchen, to which price I can go ....? PM me for answer, to do not set the market price lower 

Never seen Kirk play the Zorlac live after touring And Justice. I forgot, he also used it live on Nothing Else Matters when John Marshall filled in.

What an awesome guitar eh gents!

You know what I just noticed lads, I think my Zorlac has an Ebony fretboard.

Look at how dark the wood is compared to my 2001 KH2 which is definitely Rosewood.

I looked at all the the other guitars in some old pics of mine that are Rosewood and the Zorlac fretboard definitely looks a lot darker than the Rosewood fretboards on the other guitars.

Check these pics out and let me know what you guys reckon.

Another pic from 2010. Definitely is a lot darker than the Rosewood fretboards, maybe just as dark as the white Ouija fretboard.

Perhaps it's a Rosewood board on the Zorlac that has been dyed? I am not sure now. In all the other single pics I have of these guitars I can tell that the Zorlac fretboard looks darker by far.

This guitar is packed away nicely, so I am not sure when I can drag it out to look at it again to see what colour it really is.

And I don't think I have played or even looked at this Zorlac guitar since these pics were taken in 2010 lol.

It's just a guitar 348.  The only way to solve your mystery is to pull it out and look.  

Yes, well.....................we will be waiting a while then.

Looking at the pics, can you tell me if you think that fretboard looks darker on the Zorlac??

Or are my eyes playing tricks on me?

Lol, no way man! I've been looking at other pics of all other KH guitars I have here and it's definitely darker!

I am just not sure if it's been dyed, it's actually Ebony or if it's just a darker Rosewood they used at the time which is probably the most accurate explanation.

Here are some other pics all taken the same day in the near exact spot on the floor with the exact natural light source which is coming from the headstock area.
