Created by guitarist George Lynch in 1985 when Dokken was taking over the charts and George was being recognized as one of the world's most incendiary guitarists, the Kamikaze-1 started as George's personal custom guitar that was so outrageously unique, people began clamoring for one of their own. Once ESP began making them available for the public, it became our first Signature Series model. Still to this day, the Kamikaze-1 is a coveted guitar for good reason. Made by hand by the famous luthiers of the ESP Custom Shop in Japan, it features a maple body bolted to a maple neck with an ebony fingerboard. Its sound, as specified by George, is powered by an ESP Designed single-coil SS-120 pickup in the neck position, and a custom Seymour Duncan \"The Hunter\" pickup in the bridge spot. This pickup was specifically designed to George’s specification for a powerful and dynamic response, providing the harmonics, dimension, and firepower that George’s style demands. It's a high-output pickup with ceramic magnets and custom wind, with all the muscle for power chords and easy access to harmonic squeals, while remaining transparent enough for the “not quite clean but not exactly dirty” tones that George employs. The Kamikaze-1 includes a Floyd Rose Original bridge and Gotoh tuners, and comes with a high-quality hard shell case and a Certificate of Authenticity from ESP.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: Bolt-On\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody: Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale: 25.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck: Maple\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard: Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFingerboard Radius: 305mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: Black w\/ Kamikaze Graphic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Width: 43mm Locking Nut (45mm Neck Width)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Type: Locking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Contour: GL Original U\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrets\/Type: 22 XJ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardware\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware Color: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrap Button: ESP Strap Lock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuners: Gotoh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: Floyd Rose Original\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElectronics\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck PU: ESP SS-120\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge PU: Seymour Duncan Signature George Lynch “The Hunter”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectronics: Passive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectronics Layout: Volume (Push\/Pull)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMiscellaneous\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrings: Elixir Nanoweb Super Light (.009\/.011\/.016\/.024\/.032\/.042)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase: ST-TE GUITAR FORM FIT CASE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCase Included: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\nManufacturer: ESP Guitars\u003cbr\u003eModel: EGLK1\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I356570-N-E2631242-0-WHXE\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 840248001533\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Washington Music Center has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
