GEORGE LYNCH On The History Of The ESP Kamikaze - "It Was All Based On Function, Rather Than Cosmetics"; Video

ESP Guitars USA has released the new video below, along with the following description:

The very first ESP Signature Series guitar was the Kamikaze, a model designed by a man who would become one of the world's most admired and respected guitar players: George Lynch. Listen as George explains the origins of the Kamikaze, including the reasoning behind its unusually wide, flat neck, and what that guitar provides to him as an innovative music maker. Filmed at Valley Relics Museum (Van Nuys, CA).

The End Machine's sophomore album, Phase2, is out now. The End Machine features former classic Dokken lineup members George Lynch and Jeff Pilson, with the awesome singer Robert Mason (Warrant, Lynch Mob) on lead vocals. Classic Dokken drummer Mick Brown handled drums on the first album, but is now retired, so in his place behind the drum kit is none other than his brother Steve Brown.

Phase2 is available on CD/Ltd. Ed. Color LP/Digital. Limited Edition Crystal vinyl is available exclusively from the Frontiers' U.S. and EU webstores. Limited Edition Red vinyl is available exclusively for the U.S. market and will be available through all physical retailers there. Limited Edition White vinyl is available exclusively for the EU market and will be available through all physical retailers there.
