ESP introduced the Sunburst Tiger model in 1990 as one of their George Lynch signature models. This ESP super strat is immediately recognisable by the tiger stripe graphics on the body and the reverse hockey stick peghead. The ESP M-1 tiger also has tiger stripe graphics but no sunburst and the M-1 has a conventional headstock and single pickup. The sunburst is either red to yellow or purple to yellow.
Pickups are currently (2015) an Arcane Desert Eagle at the neck and Arcane Mr. Scary humbucker at the bridge. Earlier models had Seymour Duncan Screamin Demon at the bridge and an ESP SS-120 single coil at the neck.
