New Kirk Hammett gold V sig???

I just ran into this post from Kirk on Instagram. What a beauty! could not find other pictures yet.

Looking more closely it seems to have a partial scalloped neck like the later KH’s have. I hope we are going to see more of this one since I really love the RR look! Can’t wait to see better pics and action footage. Of course it can be a one of a kind request like the cherry red V shape which Kirk owns. (Not sure if I am right here). In that case we can probably move this thread to the custom shop forum.

I have always loved the RR shape and I think this guitar looks great.

Just found these great build shots of Kirk's new guitar on Facebook.

They are Black Limba wings glued onto that Maple neck.

And possibly an Ebony fretboard by the looks of it.


It definitely has the scalloped frets also.

Can anyone tell what the body wings are? It almost looks like alder. Maple neck thru with maple top? Very nice looking guitar. Thanks for the pics of the build!

The guy on Facebook who originally posted the pics said it was Black Limba, also known as Korina.

These pics are awesome! Thanx for posting! I asked “Spongebrick” who is an ESP technician on Instagram for building details but he did not had any yet. I love the details shown here!

I'm surprised it took this long for Kirk to get one of these.

Just saw this on Facebook, taken from Insta.

#2 of #3 for Kirk Hammett.

I really like the look of this one. Mainly because I love black guitars.

Kirk is such a lucky bastard to own such cool guitars.

Here are some pics.

Looks amazing! Loving the inlays, very aggressive take on the Jackson one. Almost looks like a scythe

Yeah man, I love this one more than the gold one.
