The Story:
This Mirage Custom is a slice of ESP history. Built in Japan back when ESP was still under-the-radar in the States, these were the same models used by guys like George Lynch, Ron Wood, and Page Hamilton. It’s got a ridiculously fast neck, tight fretwork, and tone that’s still absolutely lethal. Whether you’re after vintage vibes or full-on ‘80s shred, this thing delivers with style.
You don’t see these pop up often — especially in this condition. It’s the kind of guitar that turns heads, starts conversations, and reminds you why you started playing in the first place.
Conclusion / CTA:
This 1987 ESP Mirage Custom isn’t just for collectors — it’s for players who want to feel that raw, real-deal ‘80s energy every time they pick up a guitar. Whether you’re ripping solos or just vibing on some Van Halen riffs, this one’s got your back.
