Frequently Asked Questions
The 'Thin U' profile is generally thinner than ESP's standard neck shapes, offering a more comfortable feel, especially for players used to vintage-style necks.
The description is vague; it's likely a coil-split or phase shift, but ESP Custom Shop documentation is often minimal, requiring experimentation or contacting ESP directly.
While the mahogany provides warmth, the weight can be fatiguing for some players; a strap and potentially a balance system might be beneficial for longer gigs.
