The ESP Guitar Company

thanks for the suggestion!

They can’t because of the Gibson Lawsuit, you can have them special ordered from Japan if you want one custom shopped. 

if you have any questions you may reach out to our customer service team at customerservice@espguitars.com or https://www.espguitars.com/pages/support 

The EX Orignal body was an Explorer copy and resulted in a lawsuit because ESP made it better than Gibson so they sued .ESP. So they can no longer make any American EX designed guitars in the Explorer Shape.

glad you could get it up and running again, thanks for sharing

Thanks for the recommendation!!

thanks for the suggestion

I like this idea. Also, an option for Fishmans and Evertune would be awesome!!

Here are all of our current EX models, which can be ordered through our site or any authorized dealer

thanks for the insight

Thanks for the recommendation!

Hey Cody, our production models come just as they are listed.  ESP USA instruments have a list of options that are able to be selected through our configurator and ESP Custom Shop instruments are able to be built to your specific specifications.

Hi Jason, Yes that's true. The more demand there is for a certain design, then there are more different versions available. I know how you feel, sometimes there are very limited choices in color for certain designs. Thanks for your question and hope that helps. NOTE: We have made some different design options for the EX-400 and EX-401 in the past. Maybe you can find something on the used market or new old stock, just a suggestion.

Hi Xavier, we currently do not offer one with an FR bridge, but we have offered a 300 & 400 series in the past with FR bridge. I would search for EX-401FR and see if you can find any old new stock or used. If not yes you would have to mod a guitar, which is quite a bit of work so I would not recommend to do that. The main reason is that a guitar we build with an FR bridge will have a lower neck angle. You can put an FR on a guitar with more neck angle but the end result is you have an FR bridge that sits too high off the body and is uncomfortable to play.

Hi Rick, Sorry there is no option to have a reverse headstock on this model.

Hi Moises, Maple necks are stronger and produce a more aggressive sound that is sharper and more focused. More clarity and more high end compared to mahogany.

Hi Ashley, glad to hear this. Thanks for your suggestions as well. We've done some different finishes over the years. Check out the FX360 PBS (Padauk Brown Stain) from a few years back. We do make an F series and FRX series guitars, not sure if that's what you're asking.

I think I’ve seen that one, it’s kinda got an EC-1000 Koa vibe to it. And though I’ve heard of your F series I didn’t think to distinguish them from what I meant to ask so my apologies there.

I was asking about if ESP or LTD had ever done a Firebird style guitar? Softer curves, set-through, stopbar bridge, etc

Look up the Phoenix from a few years back. They made a 200, 400, and 1000 series in the early 2010s, and i believe they go anywhere from 400-1200 USD.

Hi Nicolas V,

If you are within the USA the price is listed on each product page. If you live outside the US, please contact your local distributor or nearest dealer for your pricing. Here is a link to our distributor page: https://www.espguitars.com/locations?categories=intl-distributors

Hey C Bowman, Thanks for your suggestion. Which version of FRX would you like to see?  6 or 7 string?

I figure most would want a 7, since a lot of the coustomers play metal. I'm fine playing 6 however.

Hi  Tito, Thanks for your suggestions.

and a 25.5" scale

I totally agree with you man

It would also be cool to see some abalone inlays,maybe a set of EMG 57/66 instead of the usual 81/60 combo currently offered
