‘99 ESP LTD M-207
I’ve had this ‘99 LTD M-207 for… 10-12 years? It started life metallic purple, but had some serious chunks taken out of the body when I got it, all the way through to the wood. Stripped it bare and did a *horrible* job of spraying a clear coat on it. Over the years it’s had a variety of pickups (currently a Bareknuckle True Grit in the bridge and a matching neck waiting), upgraded to a real Floyd Rose, had my local tech take out the tone pot, move the volume, and install a coil split.
ALL THAT TO SAY: A few years ago the truss rod broke, and I recently *finally* found an exact replacement, an honest to god exact same model and year! Swapped it out the other day, and finally remembered to take (shitty) pictures.
Anyway, that’s its story. I’m stoked to have it playable again; it’s worn, it’s ugly, and I don’t care, I love it!
