M-1 is a model from the signature line made by ESP for George Lynch. It is essentially very similar to his Kamikaze guitars and also features a soloist body type. Double-cut and solid, body of this model is equipped with a bolt-on neck joint. As other soloist-shaped George Lynch models, this one also features 25-1/2" scale and similar trade mark tone that made George so popular. This one features Yellow paint with black tiger stripes pattern. It`s finished in gloss. Standard black Floyd Rose tremolo bridge is installed on this model. It is fronted by only one pickup, Seymour Duncan Screamin Demon humbucker. Only volume knob is in the controls section. Bolted maple neck has U contour and it`s topped with a 22-fret maple fingerboard.
