How to Obtain Warranty Service

If you experience any malfunction that is covered under ESP’s Limited Lifetime Warranty, you should notify the 
ESP Dealer where the instrument was purchased. If this Dealer is not available, please contact your nearest ESP 
Dealer or Distributor. The Dealer must ship the instrument, freight and insurance pre-paid to ESP. 

PLEASE NOTE:

 Owner carrying Original Purchaser’s Limited Lifetime Warranty is responsible for all freight & 

insurance costs to ship instrument to ESP or nearest Authorized ESP Dealer. For a list of authorized ESP Dealers 
and Distributors, please visit our website at www.espguitars.com.

Dealer must contact ESP for information and authorization to return any ESP product. No instrument may be 
returned to ESP without such prior Authorization.

PLEASE NOTE:

 If Return Merchandise Authorization number (RMA#)  is not clearly marked on packages being 

returned to ESP, they WILL BE REFUSED!

Only Authorized ESP Dealers & ESP’s own service center may perform warranty service and any service performed 
by unauthorized persons will void this warranty. ESP shall not be held liable for any and all defects or damage 
caused by services performed by unauthorized persons.

ALL instruments returned to ESP must include a complete written description of the malfunction of the 
instrument. After returned instrument is inspected upon its arrival, ESP or the Authorized ESP Dealer
will advise the Owner of the approximate date of completion. The repaired instrument or part will be returned to 
the Dealer or Owner freight and insurance prepaid. 

No representative or other person is authorized to assume for ESP any liability except as stated in this warranty. 
This warranty gives you specific rights, which vary from state to state.

 ESP does not offer repair service of any kind other than warranty repair service. If your guitar needs
