I beleive that he's a session musician from Japan. He's also one of the more colourful members on the ESP forums, and it looks like he's been banned from the US forum.
But regardless of any of that, his axes rule. As you can tell, he's got an affinity for quilt maple tops:
I'm trying to find pics of his awesome Satin Black Horizon, but he's long since removed them. Damn, I wanted to base a LACS idea on it too...
Oh well, we'll just have to do with these then.
Now I remember why I insist on a White Tele with Maple board.
