Also judging by what his tech is implying, he wasn't very happy with his Jacksons.

This guy has been doing the exact same guitar in three companies already
I distinctly remember Nick from Axe Palace sending more than one of the USA ones back because of horrible QC issues. Additionally, Jackson's QC as a whole has been beyond dogshit lately. I know this is happening to a lot of brands at the moment however it seems like it's worse with Jackson than other manufacturers.
The red guitar is apparently one of the final Jackson’s he got.
Yeah it's kinda why I'm skeptical about it being an ESP. If he was already getting prototype ESPs I feel like he'd be playing them by now, but as stated earlier he's playing off-the-shelf ESP/E-II guitars.The red guitar is apparently one of the final Jackson’s he got.
I think Jamie Slays said that in his video covering this, but I’m not sure what his source is. To be fair, it does look like a hard tail version of the red Dinky he’s been playing for this album cycle.
I also see a truss rod cut out at the end of the fretboard which is typically a Jackson thing - but ofc not exclusively a Jackson feature…so this might mean nothing.
Additionally, this photo was posted a while back whilst he was still actively playing Jackson, so I think it would have been a bit risky to tease an ESP prototype back then.
