August 2008 Guitar of the Month: Eelblack2's ESP Custom Shop Kamikaze 1 7-string

Congrats to Eelblack2 for winning August's GOTM, as voted on by you, the Sevenstring.org membership!

Here are plenty of pictures of the guitar that almost did not happen, since it is a seven string version of an extremely limited edition anniversary model:

































Quick Specs:
  • Bolt-On 25.5" scale maple neck
  • Ebony fretboard with 22XJ frets and mother of pearl bomb inlays
  • Maple body with star cut neck joint
  • 48mm Floyd Rose locking nut
  • Black hardware
  • Gotoh tuners
  • Original Floyd Rose 7 bridge
  • Seymour Duncan Custom 7 bridge and custom neck single coil
  • Kamikaze 1 paint job
  • Certificate of Authenticity, signed by George Lynch
  • The most badass case you will ever see

All GOTM winners get some new tunes! A signed copy of Division's Trinity and Eric Clemenzi's Basement Tapes.



Congratulations to the Guitar of the Month winner for August!

You mean "August" Guitar of the month, not June, right?

You shake your ass but you're already dead.

Many thanks everyone! Makes me smile to be in the company of some bad ass guitars.

P.S. Who the hell is Division??




Im kidding, looking forward to hearing the actual CD, as opposed to the streaming thing.

Congrats- that is an amazing instrument. Is the fretboard finished on that? It looks shinier than normal for a dark wood board.

Its ebony, but buffed like crazy to a sheen. I noticed the areas that I bend a lot are becoming very slightly less shiney, so Im pretty sure its nothing more than an insano buffing rather than any kind of substance applied.
