Rather than a conventional vintage-style Strat, the E-SE-JK recreates the stripped-back, hot-rodded formula that made Jake's original white guitar so distinctive.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt in Japan by ESP's Edwards division, the guitar pairs an \u003cstrong\u003eash body\u003c\/strong\u003e with a maple neck and rosewood fingerboard. The Pearl White finish, black hardware and distinctive pickup arrangement capture the character of Jake's original instrument, while the simple control layout keeps the guitar focused on performance rather than unnecessary complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe factory E-SE-JK uses a pair of \u003cstrong\u003eSeymour Duncan SSL-3 Hot Strat\u003c\/strong\u003e single coils in the neck and middle positions, angled in the distinctive Jake E. Lee configuration. On this example, the original Seymour Duncan JB bridge humbucker has been replaced with a \u003cstrong\u003eVanzandt TruBucker\u003c\/strong\u003e, a premium Japanese-made humbucker with a more vintage-oriented response. It retains plenty of authority for hard rock while offering an open, articulate character and excellent dynamic response.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis guitar has also received two significant \u003cstrong\u003eKTS titanium upgrades\u003c\/strong\u003e: a titanium neck plate and titanium bridge saddles. KTS is renowned for its precision titanium guitar hardware, with these components designed to improve vibration transfer, clarity and sustain while retaining the familiar feel of the original instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is an interesting evolution of an already distinctive signature model: unmistakably Jake E. Lee in appearance and layout, but with carefully selected Japanese upgrades that give this particular example its own character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eModel:\u003c\/strong\u003e E-SE-JK Jake E.
