This is a brand new ESP AXXION Dave Mustaine from Megadeath guitar. The real deal made in Japan Custom Shop. 

This is what ESP refers to as "Artist" stock as can be seen on the sticker. It is still new and unsold but is kept at the warehouse for a just in case moment. Think about it, just incase Dave is in town and they want to hook up for a photoshoot, just incase there is a clinic at a local guitar store, just incase...

This is probably a circa 2005 model. Here are the specs taken from the 2005 ESP Guitars archive:
