moderately useless

In my opinion, this list exists only to support "editors" in creating one article after another about some overpriced short-run guitar model of interest only to fast-buck "collectors" and bemused observers. Proof otherwise is welcome. I'll point up some of the fundamental flaws.

This is a list of guitars manufactured by ESP Guitars.

According to whom? There's no way to reasonably determine that the list is at all complete, or rather maybe just those examples that some random fanboy personally found groovy enought to be worth cherry picking.
As of when? Has this list been maintained? Even if it's something like complete (see #1), we have no idea if it's at all current, or if there've been no additions since 2016 or 2009 or 2002.
What do you mean "manufactured"? Is that "have been made by ESP at some time in the past" or "are presently in production"?

Fix those problems first, and keep them fixed, noting explicitly some "as of" dates in the text.

Individual instrument articles

Just noting that there is a discussion about the various individual guitar articles, and the possibility of deleting them, at Talk:ESP Guitars#Guitar page deletion redux that may be relevant to this article. --IamNotU (talk) 17:11, 14 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
