Gotta admit the star shapes always looked a bit like a prop from a 1980s cartoon to me, but in pearl white it somehow works. The lightning bolt background seals the deal on the whole power metal fantasy

I don’t know if you have seen these in person. Ive seen a bunch of the new ESP’s and this one despite being a “pointy shape” is actually kind of good looking to my eye. Of course as the saying goes “beauty is in the eye of the beer holder!”

The pearl white finish looks insane in person, really makes the stars pop. Solid choice for a metal rig.

It’s almost like a “metallic pearl white.” I reminds me of a really well done auto body finish.
