You are looking at a Brand New, Mint, virtually un-played USA Series ESP M-III Koa guitar. This is the Limited Edition Koa Top model, limited to 20 made worldwide. This is Serial #16041, and is #11 of 20.   I special ordered this from Sweetwater and just received it 6 weeks ago. Unfortunately, I am too busy with my job that don’t have much time to play music these days, so I have decided to sell some of my gear.   This guitar is built to the highest quality standards. It has been played for about 1 hour. The build and sound quality is as good as it gets. One thing that makes it unique is that it is constructed with 4 different tone woods: premium Mahogany back and sides, High grade Hawaiian Koa top, premium Ebony fretboard, and roasted hard maple neck.   The Hawaiian Koa top is truly stunning and is even more beautiful than my pictures show.    It’s been stored in its case in my humidity and temperature controlled cabinet.   The guitar comes with high quality ESP USA Case, 2016 Build sheet & COA, adjustment wrenches, Schaller strap locks, and original ESP shipping box.   DESCRIPTION:   ESP USA M-III Koa Limited Edition   Overview: Limited to only 20 guitars worldwide, the ESP USA M-III Koa Limited Edition is a stunning example of the craftsmanship found in our USA manufacturing facility. This mahogany-bodied guitar is topped with high-grade figured Koa, a dense wood found only in the Hawaiian Islands that is renowned for both its beautiful grain and its effect on articulate tone. The M-III Koa Special Edition also makes use of a roasted maple neck in a thin "U” shape for incredibly smooth, comfortable playing, and is paired with an ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo frets. All of the components of the USA M-III Koa are of the highest caliber, and designed for players who can accept no compromises. These include the sonic versatility of Seymour Duncan STK-S4 stacked single-coil pickups, offering the clarity of tone you need without the typical single-coil noise, along with a Seymour Duncan Custom Shop ’78 humbucker for that coveted late-1970s sound that can easily range between everything from hard rock/metal to jazz fusion by simply backing off the guitar’s volume. This guitar, collectible and rare from day one, is built at our California factory, and includes an official certificate of authenticity from ESP USA.
