Just cause it looks different doesn't mean its not an ESP. It is a custom shop after all.

That's legit. Correct headstock shape (Kramer Focus banana era), correct tuners, it's set neck so it's not like the neck was swapped. The only thing is that ugly plate covering where the Floyd used to go. Why would anyone do that?

It could be real. I dunno if its James' guitar, but it could be a real ESP...

It's a fake... there is no "Made In Japan" tag on the back of the headstock...

1. If it was real, it would be made in the 80's
2. Look at the customs and signatures of Japanese ppl and ask the same

Damn I knew I forgot something. Next time I'll put a "Made In Japan" sticker on it, then no one can deny it's authenticity. :evil

No I was being sarcastic. Anyone could take a sticker off a real ESP and slap it on a fake. Or if it was real, they could have taken it off. I don't really want to sell anything at the moment but thanks for asking.

Ok, idk if I'm right or not, but don't ESP's always have a valute (idk how to spell it, but you know, the bump on the back of the headstock where it goes into the neck, right behind the nut pretty much but on the opposite side)... i noticed it didn't have it...

It says his name because of the shape.
