ESP LTD KH Ouija Natural Quilt Kirk Hammett Limited Edition Guitar & Case #432

Limited Edition #432 of 666

8.36 lbs

It was around 1990 that Metallica guitarist Kirk Hammett first approached us at ESP with the idea of a guitar that made use of graphic elements from Hasbro’s classic Ouija® mystical board game. Back then, before the age of digital cameras and Internet communication, creating a guitar like this took some ingenuity. We got a Ouija® board, and used a combination of a copy machine and a pair of scissors to properly position the art elements on the guitar’s body. We faxed the result to our ESP Custom Shop in Japan, and the rest is history: the Ouija™ guitar became one of the most well-known and coveted signature models in ESP history.

The first version of the guitar was a one-off custom model for Kirk’s use only. It wasn’t until 2010 that we negotiated the rights to sell the Ouija™ guitar to the public. Recently, we came across a collection of beautiful Ouija® boards that were handcrafted from wood, and it inspired us to try a new version of the Ouija™ guitar with a quilted maple top. We had a prototype made and sent to it Kirk, who loved it.

With the new ESP Kirk Hammett Ouija™ Natural (25 pieces available worldwide) and the LTD KH Ouija™ Natural (666 pieces available worldwide), we now offer the Ouija™ guitar once again. As another limited edition model, and a guitar with the level of desirability and rarity to make it an instant collector’s item, our advice for people who’d like to own the new Ouija™ Natural: get it today, because tomorrow may be too late.

One of the most legendary guitars ever created with Kirk Hammett of Metallica was his original Ouija™ from the ESP Custom Shop. Using graphics from Hasbro’s popular spirit board game, the Ouija™ guitar has since only been produced in small batches, and its immediate popularity and limited availability made it an instant collector’s item. The new LTD KH Ouija™ Natural is a limited-edition model for the Kirk Hammett Signature Series, and is the first Ouija™ guitar being made available to the public since 2010. Limited to just 666 pieces worldwide, the KH Ouija™ Natural offers a set of otherworldly features that put it in a class by itself. It includes a stunning quilted maple top with natural finish over its alder body, and black binding on the body, neck and headstock. The KH Ouija™ Natural offers neck-thru-body construction, with a three-piece extra-thin U-shaped maple neck, a Macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo frets, and star and moon inlays that complement the occult-oriented theme of this amazing guitar. Components include a Floyd Rose bridge and a set of EMG 60 (neck) and EMG 81 (bridge) active pickups. The KH Ouija™ Natural is more than just a collectible museum piece; its features are designed for the top level of professional guitar performances. Includes special ESP Ouija™ case and Certificate of Authenticity.

MACASSAR EBONY FINGERBOARD
We’ve chosen Macassar ebony, a sustainable wood, which perfectly contrasts and complements the look of the guitar’s quilted maple top, and features pearloid star and moon inlays.

LIMITED EDITION SERIAL NUMBER
Each limited edition LTD KH Ouija™ Natural features a serial number that reflects the order of production from #1 to #666, imparting collectible value along with great playability.
