Jack Fliegler of Arizona-based metal band Singularity demos the new LTD Arrow-401, and tells you about its features. More info on the LTD Arrow-401: www.espguitars.com/products/13...
cant believe the comments are years old..... i listened to this so often :) This short is the definition of Metal !!!!!! Every note and every touch screams out loud Metal !!!! Singularity is an awesome band, search them.
Not often I say this among the multitudes of metal players on here but this is some master riffage creation. Awesome dual guitar use. Not to mention lead playing/note slection. Shredding with heart and soul
Keep doing demo videos like this. I don't think Chris Cannella isn't a good player, but the demo videos with him don't promote the product half as well as this video does.
+Josh Schulz The problem is, he use just too much gain. CZcams and the editing procces compress so much that way less gain is needed. In person it sounds totally different.
dntinpalevo It actually isn't a super low tuning that is causing the string vibrating effect. It was shot with a dslr camera with a shutter speed set high enough to catch the string oscillations.
Actually it's aliasing or stroboscopic effect. When the sampling frequency (30 or 60fps) is comparable to the frequency components (like the low E string == 80Hz) within the sampled signal, it creates an effect which makes the sampled freq seem to be too low (80-60Hz = 20Hz). Just like a spinning wheel sometimes looks like it's moving very slowly, sometimes spinning backwords or sometime stationary...
Thanks 4 Video. Wish i had inlays in my model. So used to fretboard inlays 😆 Do u guys know a good place in EU to order cool inlay stickers? I only find some lame ones for acoustic etc. My model is ESP LTD Arrow BKM BLKS. EMG single 81 Active EMG TKO Kill Switch. Floyd Rose 1000. Grover machine heads. Macassar ebony fretboard Diospyros spp. Mahogany Body (Khaya ivorensis).
Was it 3 or 4 cameras on you? I can’t tell! ha Anyways, anyone hear about the Black Metal version of this guitar? It’s satin. And expensive. Not sure if that makes any difference but it’s worth checking out!
It's a great guitar, but personally im not a Floyd Rose person, and I break strings way too often with this guitar. I realised I should've got a fixed bridge guitar after I bought it, like the ESP EX-401. Still love this guitar, tho
Not necessarily. Lots of people are ectomorphs and have a hard time gaining weight and don't have large appetites. I agree he looks very skinny but if he was malnourished he wouldn't have the energy to play like he just did.
H3ncho really???? wow!!! thank you!!!! i feel like i'm the only one out of all my friends who loves reverse headstocks!!! ever since i saw kirk hammett play his reverse headstock esp's, i was in love my whole life with those type of guitars!!! Dude you are super cool!!! I hope one day we'll meet up at a rock concert or something and i'll buy you a burger!!! 😆😆😆👍✌️
I hate that inlay on the 12 fret. I don't know why the ESP guitar company insists on ruining thousands of guitars with an out of place ugly inlay on most of their guitars. I mean, come on!!! even some of the expensive ESP models have it! It's horrible! Dear ESP, make the inlay on the 12th fret the same as the rest and I will buy your guitars. Sincerely, hundreds of thousands of upset musicians across the world.
I agree totally man. Unless you buy an ESP branded artist signature or a custom order guitar it will always have an ESP, or LTD model branding inlay. I think this is done on purpose to intentionally get some customers to shell out for a custom guitar. It looks tacky and out of place imo. We know what model it is, we don't need to be reminded of it on the 12th or 24th fret. Otherwise LTD is one of the best values out there even if they've become very cliché and common. I would love to get a new ESP branded guitar but I refuse to pay custom shop prices for something with low resale. I have an ESP KH-2 for almost 20 yrs now but I would love another real ESP. Only rare Hetfield and Kirk signatures and the MX-220-250s are worth buying for those prices. E-II branding looks horrible. LTD block logo looks much better but the quality is not the same. They could've just put ESP standard/std and ESP custom to differentiate the tiers.

This short is the definition of Metal !!!!!!

Singularity is an awesome band, search them.
I was thinking the same Singularity goes so hard
The Arrow is the best V design there is. it's the perfect combo of the Rhoads and King V styles
Amen to that!
Give this guy a medal fro great video demo.
Also a sandwich
finally good tone & great playing.
Sick lead at the end. Guitar looks killer
the leg-shaped curve behind the bridge just makes this guitar what it is! it glues to you
Not often I say this among the multitudes of metal players on here but this is some master riffage creation. Awesome dual guitar use. Not to mention lead playing/note slection. Shredding with heart and soul
This guy is good as fuck, and I want that guitar.
Sick Player
Great demo, great playing! Reminds me of something Obscura would write

I think I watched this around 73k times already 🙌
A video on ESP's channel by someone who doesn't have a shitty tone? WHAT?
StraightFaceJake Same reaction
These 720p60 videos are badass, keep doing that!
Damn this guy is good! Killer guitar too! Can't quite make up my mind if I should get this or Jackson Rhoads or a Jackson King V...
The metal Sideshow Bob
+John Rigdon Lol! But far more nicer and talented!
holy shit, that's it right there man. looking for a metal guitar & this sounds perfect!
Best videogame metal youtuber
Damnnnnnn. Well
Played sir. Had slight a slight Slayer vibe in the beginning but then went full metal.
spider fingers....I enjoyed that demo...nice playing and cool riffs
I wound like to know the rest of the rig which was used to get this wonderful tone.
Holy shit! Kickass man!!!
what's the name of that song?
that was awesome
You know it's a low tuning if you can see the strings vibrate like crazy :)

I bought the white one, and it's fucking great!
Thanks 4 Video.
Wish i had inlays in my model.
So used to fretboard inlays 😆
Do u guys know a good place in EU to order cool inlay stickers?
I only find some lame ones for acoustic etc.
My model is
ESP LTD Arrow BKM BLKS.
EMG single 81 Active
EMG TKO Kill Switch.
Floyd Rose 1000.
Grover machine heads.
Macassar ebony fretboard Diospyros spp.
Mahogany Body (Khaya ivorensis).
how good is the floyd on this thing?
What’s the difference with this and the 1000
What is the name of the song?? That is incredible
Dunno the song name, but the band is Singularity.
I just come here to listen to the music
This should be a song. If it is what's it called?!?!
And that's how you demo a guitar 🤘😑🤘
Was it 3 or 4 cameras on you?
I can’t tell! ha
Anyways, anyone hear about the Black Metal version of this guitar?
It’s satin. And expensive.
Not sure if that makes any difference but it’s worth checking out!
I really want to know what is the outro music!
czcams.com/video/uBIZktPoZSc/video.html
Wow the solos impressed me more there anything here...
It's a great guitar, but personally im not a Floyd Rose person, and I break strings way too often with this guitar. I realised I should've got a fixed bridge guitar after I bought it, like the ESP EX-401. Still love this guitar, tho
I want to buy this guitar but Im not shure... Do you prefer it?
yes, that's a very good choose. :)
Does the guitar sit up in your lap or are you holding it up w your left hand sort of?
I think it rests on the left leg to point up
Man, this guy is so boney. A great example of a starving artist.
Great demo by the way.
good one
Not necessarily. Lots of people are ectomorphs and have a hard time gaining weight and don't have large appetites. I agree he looks very skinny but if he was malnourished he wouldn't have the energy to play like he just did.
I'm gonna buy an ESP Arrow-401. What ampiflyer is it?
any half stack with a digital pedal board mate
Some of the riffs remind me of Psycroptic, Killer stuff..
What is the name of song???
Now that’s how you advertise
Now this is a fucking demo!
Now I want to buy this guitar...eveb though i m broke as hell!
There’s a lot of nice guitars without hood demos
do you guys have that with a reverse headstock??? thanks!!! 😄👍✌️
+Winnie Raccoon yes thomann sell :)
around 2000€
H3ncho thanks so much!!!! 😆😆😆👍✌️
np dude, im a fan of reverse headstock too so I know the struggle haha
H3ncho really???? wow!!! thank you!!!! i feel like i'm the only one out of all my friends who loves reverse headstocks!!! ever since i saw kirk hammett play his reverse headstock esp's, i was in love my whole life with those type of guitars!!! Dude you are super cool!!! I hope one day we'll meet up at a rock concert or something and i'll buy you a burger!!! 😆😆😆👍✌️
same for me, first time I saw matt tucks Jackson from bullet for my valentine I fell in love with the reverse headstock style!
haha can't wait man! :D
wow I have x ray vision wait...
What the actual fuck did he play holy shitt
wtf is wrong with those strings???? ive never seen them so loose before, is that a type?
its down tuned, idk what tunning though.
The video is shot in 60 frames per second, that's the reason why the string movement is so fluid.
There's some serious string vibration going on
I always thonk it's funny when I see a really skinny guy playing death metal 😂
I hate that inlay on the 12 fret. I don't know why the ESP guitar company insists on ruining thousands of guitars with an out of place ugly inlay on most of their guitars. I mean, come on!!! even some of the expensive ESP models have it! It's horrible!

you're seriously gonna let an inlay stop you from buying a quality guitar ? is it ocd ?
HAHA probably is ocd.. just URGggggg it's so out pf place!!

I think ESP listened to you. Unless the newest ones I’ve seen listed are fakes .
ESP listened, the ones I bought recently don’t have the logo/company name on the 12th fret.
strings are too low
Eat something.
