The ESP LTD Surveyor '87 Bass in Pearl White is a faithful re-creation of the popular bass first introduced in ESP’s 1987 catalog. This bass is a nod to the past while still embracing contemporary features that appeal to today's bassists.

The Surveyor '87 is designed with an alder body, known for its rich low-end resonance and punchy mid-range. This bass is not just about tone but also comfort and playability - The 34-inch maple bolt-on neck, topped with a Macassar ebony fingerboard, delivers a clear, crisp attack, while the Thin "U" neck profile and contoured armrest ensure a comfortable playing experience.

A standout feature is the P/J pickup combination featuring a Seymour Duncan Vintage P/Vintage Jazz pickup set, offering flexible tone-shaping options to cater to various musical genres and styles. The bass is rounded off with distinctive black hardware, a Gotoh 201-B4 bridge, and LTD vintage tuners, making it not just a stellar performer but also a visually striking instrument.
