ESP LTD Viper 301 Plays Dio Era Black Sabbath Neon Knights thru HX Stomp
Plays like buttah even though it’s strung-up with 11’s. There’s some damage to the rear lower bout edge that is not noticeable from the front. The stock pickups sound pretty good - one could do a lot worse for an SG variant. Squint very hard and the fretboard inlays could pass for Iommi style crosses.

ESP LTD GL-200K George Lynch Kamikaze Shred Machine Plays Dokken, Obviously, thru HX Stomp
zhlédnutí 124Před 2 měsíci

Delay Freakouts: MXR M166 Time Delay vs Boss DM2 vs Seymour Duncan Vapor Trail vs Biyang/Akai AD-8
zhlédnutí 18Před 2 měsíci
These are four of my favorite delays for self-oscillation sounds. The sound of a degrading delay in to a distorted/fuzz tone can be mesmerizing. The way the notes trail off and mutate in some pedals is much better than others - see for yourself.
ESP LTD EC-401 Goldtop thru Tonex Modeler w/Slash APH Pickups
zhlédnutí 153Před 7 měsíci
The LTD 401 line is a fine Les Paul variant which can substitute for the real thing in many situations. This one is tricked-out to re-create the Slash sound. Along with the Tonex modeler Roses patch, it comes pretty close direct to recording device. (I did notice some weird CZcams processing phasing artifacts through Bluetooth headphones) This one sports some well-earned road scars such as a ne...

ESP LTD GL-200MT George Lynch Tiger Stripe thru Line6 HX Stomp Plays Dokken
zhlédnutí 1,2KPřed 10 měsíci
Offbeat shred machine that runs away from the insanely thin necks of the era that inspires it, sporting a beefy neck profile to go with the super high-output bridge pickup. The pickup yields a warm and somewhat compressed tone. What it lacks in subtlety it makes up for with consistent sound and output. Rock solid shredder.

Live Shootout - Gibson Les Paul Standard vs ESP LTD EC-401VF with Dimarzio 36th Anniversary PAFs
zhlédnutí 163Před 11 měsíci
Footage cut from my last gig where I tried to contrast these guitars. Each guitar gives me a little something different, but I don’t think anyone in the audience notices much of a difference. The Dimarzio pups are a touch stronger and fatter and I really like them driving a JCM800 4010. The ESP LTD EC-401 makes a strong case for leaving the much more expensive Les Paul at home. Check one out ov...

Near mint example of this mid-80's gem. (Note: not a "Jem") Playing through my customized VH patch, which is a work in progress. I feel like I got the SPLAT right on the attack, but the low-end needs some more thud. These Ibanez feature my favorite Ibanez necks. They are oil-finished and never feel sticky - very natural wood feel. These are normal dimension necks, not like the ultra thin RG nec...

Body and electronics from 1976. Neck from 1979. The neck was refretted with true jumbo frets by Philtone Guitar in Baltimore - one of the best. The fretboard was shaved-down to a 9.5 radius and refinished. The headstock still has the darker hue and finish checking. The original neck inhibited playing in three ways: small frets, 7.25 radius and sticky fingerboard finish. No all-original 1979 Str...

      Save the old one! You can probably Dremel those edges back to a usable shape - they are very good bridges.
