Real or fake

Hi all,

I have an opportunity to buy 94 ESP KH-2

I found that the serial number is really from 94 but there something i would like to clear.

the guitar has 2 ESP pickups(not EMG), as can you see in the picture below.

is this normal? did ESP put there own pickups and not EMGs? all posts i saw with this kind of guitar there were 81/81 or 81/60 EMGs.

Thanks for helping

Do you have any more pictures? It could just be that the EMGs were swapped out by the owner/a previous owner. It's an easy enough thing to do.

The KH-2 was indeed 81/81 for a long time and in the last few years changed to 81/60.

More pics will make it a little easier for us to tell you if it's the real deal or not.

Although looking at these two little pics now I think that guitar looks legit to me.

I seem to remember these were the same style pickups used in the very first run KH-1 as well.

I'd say it's legit.
