ESP Samurai Kyomoto Special is the ugliest guitar ever made On Sunday, Music Thing will be four years old, and Ive never seen a guitar quite so eye-bendingly ugly as the ESP Samurai Kyomoto Special, built for Masaki Kyomoto, actor/musician star of Cutey Honey and Ai to Yujo no Boogie-woogie ("an entertaining drama that carries a message of hope in the boogie-woogie rhythm to all housewives around the country"). Theres a nice shot of Masaki at work here. PS. If youre wondering what the veiny, blue erect bit is, its a fully working samurai sword. Good luck getting that through airport security. Anyway, many more gruesome ESP specials at Monmons Gadgets.
