It gives me great pleasure to announce my brand new signature model guitar from ESP Guitars!
When ESP offered to build my signature instrument, I admit being a tad skeptical, for two reasons: First, in recent years, I’ve become a vintage guitar enthusiast, with standards that are tough for any manufacturers to live up to, especially those whose history begins after 1970. Second, what was being promised was a tall order: a new guitar bearing the same traditional quality I’d grown accustomed to, but with a fresh feel, a modern aesthetic, options for variation and greater durability. I’m thrilled to report that the project has succeeded on all counts.

(Note: It is with utmost gratitude that I say goodbye to my official relationship with Heritage Guitars of Kalamazoo, a company with whom I'm deeply proud to have been affiliated. Having a Heritage signature guitar placed me on a very small list that includes Gary Moore, Johnny Smith and Kenny Burrell. I know there are some Heritage fans that may not understand this decision. As a young guitar fan, I felt confused anytime I'd see an artist who'd jump from one guitar endorsement to another. Of course, one can never predict how things will look in the future, from different vantage point. I plan on addressing this move and my thinking behind the decision later, in greater detail)
