ESP LTD VIPER 400 DEMO

[ZaveVG]

Hey, I have to say, I like the riffing and the material, I own an ESP Viper 400 myself, I have to get it tuned up again soon. That is one thing about Youtube videos, when recording electric guitar, it is even harder to get an accurate replication than on acoustic, though I can see what you're doing and I like the demo! Keep playing!

Very little originality there Zakk and those guitars suck. They might fit if on a shoestring budget but for real music you gotta get a real guitar. Play one of these at a store alongside other brands and they fall short.

It's a cheap alternative to a $1K investment.

Sorry for being brutally honest.

[stratdem]

nice playing BUT theres only 2 guitar companys in the world that makes the REAL SG GUITARS. THEY ARE Gibson and Epiphone period. all others are nothing more than BULLSHIT COPYS like the esp ltd viper.

[MrThcpcplsd]

@stratdem your an idiot!

[ZaveVG]

@stratdem Well, actually if you look at it, the Gibson/Epiphone SG guitars are the Gibson/Epiphone SG guitars, they have a SIMILAR shape to this guitar, I happen to own an ESP LTD 400 Viper in black with dual EMG pickups, it was the first electric I had ever owned, if you look at this guitar, it is in a similar shape, but not exactly, by contrast it is actually quite a bit different looking than an SG in person, and for musical purposes, the ESP viper is a very good mid-range guitar for metal.

[burtosu86]

[sylus6666]

[avirajmalmsteen]

[awxjr]

[Inferno1092000]

i always thought of the viper as a ec that was melting like that famous painting of the clocks all melting. i likr the look to not bashing it at all

[Kampanitak]

Wow! Are you using Drop-D tunning ¿?

[dancingtakosmonkey]

Does this guitar active pickups?

[xaleu]

@dancingtakosmonkey yep emg 81/85

[232323C]

i liek the song... is that the baritone guitar?

[232323C]

not bad...

[lp21046]

damn dude good riffs. personally I like cherry red or black or sunburst guitars. white guitars seem odd to me. i don't know why.

[TheCondemnedProphet]

Im excited as fuck, just bought brand new one of ebay.

[Chuweh]

Hey where did u get the white headstock version???

[getcarterpunk]

First riff is a Corrosion Of Conformity riff, can't remember which one.

[wrathchild13211]

@getcarterpunk

It's possible that it's similar to COC but I highly doubt it is a COC riff. And if it is similar than that's pretty cool considering the last time I truly listened to COC was when I was in Junior high.lol. I did however once re-write In Flames' "Trigger." Now that one was obvious when it was pointed out to me. Crazy how that shit happens.

[juanitox256]

@getcarterpunk aguante corrosion !

[malmsteen80]

i dont like such metal but u make it sounds awwesome

[toobasaurus23]

What amps are you using?

[toobasaurus23]

That's sick bro. You have tabs for that riff off yours? would love to learn it.

[Augustofright]

awesome

[toobasaurus23]

Awesome bro. Im getting the same guit' in a couple of months. Thanks for posting/

[wOOd0Od]

you look like a robot playing hahahaha pretty awesome riffs

[fitbikebmx79]

Hey nice playing sounded sick I'm getting tht guitar in a couple days... Why so u hold the guitar like tht though is that just how your comfortable cause I can't do it tht way...

[wrathchild13211]

Thanks alot! I was always tought it was the classical way. It helps with your form and when stretching to hit far apart chords and notes. Plus in prevents injury of the shoulders & neck. Plus it helps me with speed control.

[Psychosocial246]

thats fukn awesome man - the music and the guitar ha hope to get one of those one day!!

[wrathchild13211]

thanks!!! totally should.

[metallicafan1234321]

[Mtarvali]

[wrathchild13211]

It's a fender m-80 pro but believe it or not it's running through an ipod sound dock.

[rellik136]

[wrathchild13211]

Awesome! Learned Harmonics from the King of em

[bnsguitar]

@joshua0226 zakk just fucking uses a wah pedal on everything.

[bigdaddy1382]

great stuff man. Hows the axe heavy and solid like an SG or is it light, like a strat?

Keep postin dude your good.

[wrathchild13211]

Hey, thanks man!!!the viper is actually the lightest guitar that I own. It plays like an sg but is as light as as a strat.

[wrathchild13211]

Pretty light like a strat. Feels a lil wierd playing standing up. The EC feels better than the viper.

[rellik136]

@wrathchild13211

yeah i agree played both i like the ec better but still love the viper i want a viper 404 bass

[pharoid77]

Hey Jamelo23 - Thanks! I'll check em out, I know Randall makes good stuff but have never tried them out.

[jamelo23]

pharoid 77 I have the same guitar and im using a randall 100 watt amp combo it sounds better than this so i would suggest trying those out

[wrathchild13211]

Im playing thru a fender m-80 pro head and instead of running it thru a cab. I ran it out to an i-pod home system. This is just for practice and to get an ok sound.

[pharoid77]

What kind of setup are you playing through, amp / effects - I have a Viper 400 and I want that similair sound

[wrathchild13211]

Im playing thru a fender m-80 pro head and instead of running it thru a cab. I ran it out to an i-pod home system. This is just for practice and to get an ok sound.

[WILLKILLMORE]

Thanx alot!!! I totally think it's worth getting.ut try to get your your hands on a slightly older model...Before Esp switched the hard wear to black nickle. If you are interested I might be selling mine. Let me know!!!

[Zerox142]

Dude your good!:O But what do you think about the guitar? Is it worth getting?:)
