    I would love an ESP Baritone. (I loved the Grynch and want one again) But I still can't get over the abomination of a body shape the Sankebyte is. Is a deformed explorer

          Last fall, I asked a Japanese ESP shop about it and they said they would make it if I could get an order.

          This is it.

          So, as you can see in the comments on instagram, it looks like they're still selling them below.

                    No. Just got this last week. I didn’t even know about the Perkins. It was listed on reverb last week and bought it immediately.

                        Perkins is the guy who set it up at ESP apparently. Beauty!

                         

                        Check your case lining around the body. They haven't been doing a good job gluing them lately.

                              I think they are all sold to owners who will not easily part with it. I have one and a made a special Facebook group for Esp Snakebyte SE owners, we’re with 4 now . To my calculations 8 were made, including James’. I think Metrighteous isn’t in the group, so with him and hetfields makes 6 known owners. It will be extremely difficult to find one. 

                              ive been told its a very difficult guitar to build, because of the big slap off quilted maple that is needed to cover a snakebytes body. Quilted maple of those required sizes are extremely rare to come by.

                                Just as an FYI, James used the LTD version at the 40th anniversary shows. Maybe that's the one to have.

                                  Hi There,

                                  Thank you for the heads up. It sounds like it might not be possible to get one. Just for the heck of it I may inquire with the custom shop. Thanks again!!

                                    You should contact Hiend guitars. They sold 3 in the past and I bought mine also from them. I thought they were able to order 3 back in 2017/2018. Esp offered them as a sort of bonus because Hiend placed a very big order at esp (I thought a million dollar +). Perhaps they have another one incoming?
