ESP Tom Araya is an electric bass guitar model distributed by ESP Guitars,[1] as customized by Chilean-American musician Tom Araya.
Araya originally discovered ESP when his Slayer bandmates Jeff Hanneman and Kerry King used the company's guitars; the former had his own signature model.
Araya approved under the condition the bass he plays is the same a fan could purchase at a music store.
As of November 2018, ESP has three Araya basses, the top model's list price is $4,499 while the others are $999 and $499.
[1] Among other customization features, Araya wanted the bass to have an unusually thin neck which he prefers to accommodate his playing style.
