  • Robin Rider found

    Looks to be an ESP made Robin 3 singles TSB.
    Neck is painted black Klusen tuners reverse headstock,rosewood fingerboard.
    Its got EMG's with a push pull on the vol.No case
    Whats the value on these?I can get it for $349.00 Is that reasonable?
    Really? well screw Mark Twain.

    Did some research and the rider was supposed to be logod ranger but ESP messed up and had to re-do a bunch of logos.
    I didn't know Tokia made the early import Robins then they switched to ESP.
    Its pretty cool tho' strat body with a spectrumesqe pearloid pickguard and 3 EMG singles.
    I may have to go back and get this one.
    Really? well screw Mark Twain.

      I'd say that is not overpriced...rare guitar to find too.

      I have a couple of older and newer Robins...
      They are ash and all very nice.

      The top one is an early Tokai built RH-1. (They were all 21 fretters)
      Neck shape feels almost like my Nightswan.
      The single hum w/tap is really good!!!
      Just a wicked little guitar

      The next one down is an ESP built Raider I. (These were 22 fretters)
      Again great guitar and pickup

      The last two are my US Medleys...amazing players!

        The one I'm looking at has the strat body.It may be ash but looks like alder to me.
        The price seems fair and they aren't all that collectable at the moment.
        Best I can tell its an early ESP made.
        BTW do your Tokai and ESP have blank neck plates or do the have the robin logo?

          Well if it is an ESP, then it will have 22 frets...
