This B-208FM bass guitar has some minor blemishes on it, the side of the headstock, the body of the guitar both front and back. 

It is a Sample/Prototype guitar, ESP makes the samples to test out various colors, finishes and to show to dealers prior to the actual model being built. They take them to shows like NAMM and start taking preorders for the new years model. Not all Sample/Prototype models actually make it to production.
