ESP Kirk Hammett guitar collection
ESP Kirk Hammett guitar collection
I finally had the opportunity to take a big family picture of all of my Hammett guitars.
I have posted pictures of these guitars here in the past, but the old family picture only had 9 guitars in it, this updated family pic now has 12 guitars in it.
**Not in this picture is my original bolt on 2001 KH2 that I couldn't fit in anywhere**
Nearly all of these guitars have not been touched or played for around 7 or 8 years now
I spent nearly 12 hours today playing, cleaning and oiling the fretboards on these guitars.
These pictures were taken before I cleaned and oiled them. Some of the fretboards were extremely dry.
I have never oiled any of these guitars in the past, not even my 16 year old KH2 which I purchased new.
A lot of these guitars took a lot of lemon oil to freshen up the fretboards.
Most of them now have much darker Rosewood fretboards that what you see in the pictures here. I will aim to get these all out once a year to oil them as it's a very dry climate where I live and it definitely needs to be done.
I have removed all the batteries this time for storage and the next time I will get this collection out again for pictures is when the new Demonology guitar arrives next year.
I hope you all enjoy the pictures and if there are any questions, please ask.
I have individual pictures of these guitars also which I may post up also.
Cheers
I was just thinking also, when the clear coat eventually yellows over that Demonology guitar, the sigils are going to look yellowish which will be pretty cool also.
