ESP LTD Viper-1000 Baritone Electric Guitar – Black Satin

Solidbody Electric Guitar, with Mahogany Body, Maple Cap, 3-piece Mahogany Neck, Ebony Fretboard, and 2 Humbucking Pickups – Black Satin

Optimized for Aggressive Players

With the ESP LTD Viper-1000 Baritone solidbody electric guitar, you’ve got a gig-ready rock machine in your hands. Playability is fast and precise, thanks to its Thin “U” neck profile and 24 extra-jumbo frets. And its fiesty tone is full of power, served up by EMG 60TW-R and 81 humbuckers (with a push-pull control for split-coil tones too). Its longer 27-inch neck scale, Tonepros locking TOM/tailpiece, and D’Addario XL158 strings provide a perfectly comfortable and functional foundation for all of the baritone shredding you could ask for. With all this wrapped up in an undeniably menacing double-cutaway body style, the ESP LTD Viper-1000 Baritone is a great guitar to hit the stage with.

Designed for flawless baritone riffing

ESP made sure to outfit the LTD Viper-1000 Baritone with all the necessary tools for successful and sonically satisfying baritone guitar playing. Part of this is in the blueprint of the neck, boasting a 27-inch scale that caters beautifully to lower tunings while still supplying that hyper-responsive playing nature that every shredding axe deserves. Aiding in its phenomenal playability is a trustworthy Tonepros locking TOM/tailpiece to supply superb intonation, as well as a set of premium D’Addario XL158 Electric Baritone Strings for an extremely comfortable playing feel right out of the box!

Powerful and aggressive tones from EMG humbuckers

The combination of EMG pickups in the ESP LTD Viper-1000 Baritone gives you the perfect balance of tone shaping and sheer destructive power. The EMG 60TW-R neck pickup boasts the grumbling low-end sound you crave, with a push-pull control for easy coil-splitting and adding some bite to your tone. The EMG 81 bridge pickup sharpens things up with a snarlingly aggressive attack that effortlessly cuts through just about any mix. Put the two together, and you have an ultra-powerful, intimidating sonic duo that makes this axe sound just hardcore as it looks. Guitarists agree, this pickup combination is primed for modern rock and metal.
