Is this an ESP?

Hello all,

Hoping someone here may know something about this guitar. I bought it recently, the person that i got it from swore up and down that it was a real ESP, and i kept telling him that just because the backplate says ESP means nothing. 

 

Anyways, a few people who know more about ESP/superstrats think it MAY be an ESP. Attached are a few pictures, if anyone has any info i'd love to hear it!

It may have been made by ESP or the 48th St. shop in the early to mid 80s, but essentially with no branding other than a neck plate, it's no more valuable to most people than an old partscaster.

ESP used to just make parts back in the day. Take the neck off and check for any markings.

It does not appear to be. Any info on where the person got it from?

Guys,


Sorry to bring back a dead thread. I was just looking up ESP guitars this morning and out of nowhere this came up.
