This appears to be the exact guitar used by Masahiro Andoh during his 1998 show with T-Square that can be seen on Youtube. We've done plenty of research and can't find anything on the AERIAL series from ESP, meaning this was likely a complete on-off build for Andoh.
Likely hand made in Japan by ESP in the early 1990's. Very high end specs on this one including a nitro finish on a solid Spruce top, solid back and sides, mahogany neck (648mm scale length, 45mm nut width) and an ebony fingerboard/bridge, it weighs 2.2kg's. Features an ebony bridge with individual saddles and is loaded with a custom pickup/preamp system that has individual volume controls on trimpots for each string along with master volume/tone controls and a separate two-band EQ. If you can't find a sound that you like from this thing then you're probably doing it wrong..
Includes the original fitted case as pictured, received a full professional setup and service prior to listing. It's been gigged and played but taken care of. Features a fully functional truss rod (rare on most classical) and a straight neck with plenty of life in the frets.
