ESP M-II #1 "Skull and Crossbone"
Black, 2x EMG 81 humbuckers
Skull and Crossbone inlays, reverse headstock
Pushead skull sticker on body
This guitar was Kirk's original ESP MII. The headstock is slightly different than his following ESPs, the flat part is on the side of the headstock on this guitar, while the following ones are flat at the top of the headstock. Also, the skull inlays on this first ESP are oriented differently than his other one. The skulls are up and down when the guitar is in its stand, and his second one the skulls are up and down when the guitar is actually being played.
This guitar now resides at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland Ohio.
