The intro song is of course an augmented version of Like Light To The Flies by Trivium :). Hope you enjoy this video.
I thought it sounded familiar
did you know that this guitar is based on teloch´s (mayhem) custom signature? except for the pickup
trivium is not black metal what were you thinking?
@@kaelspencer-labre9080 Trivium is cool tho
ahhh I friggin knew I recognised that tune!!
It’s cool to see you get better at lead, I remember you saying you couldn’t do solos at all one video
During this summer I got myself ESP LTD M-Black Metal Black Satin, which is also a great and I got to say, I'm in love with these black metal series. No bullshit, just amazing guitars for heavy music, that's all there is to it.
Like light to the flies!!
Andrew busting out his lead skills on some Trivium? Great to see you improve, man. The LTD is fucking amazing! Best quality import models along with the newer Schecters by a long mile. I have yet to experience a bad 1000 series-level guitar so I may check this series out. The black M-1 model is SICK.
I'm a proud owner of one. Its my primary recording guitar. The tuning stability is amazing and the clarity of the single Black Winter is unmatched by any active pickups I've ever played. Not even my James Hetfield set.
Good to know man! I have my set of the JH EMGs and I’m like can tone be better than this?! 😂 but I love the black winters so your comment sold me!
Nice video! PS The "Blackened" Black Winter doesn't have just 'black' pole pieces, but the pole pieces themselves are different (hex screws vs. the regular screw and stud/slug).
I believe that the volume knob rotates "forever" because it allows you to have some versatility on the tone. I guess if you rotate it half way, you'd get a warmer tone, close to what a bridge pickup would sound like. The rest obviously is the amps work.
I think its a push pull switch
She's a spicy guit! Solid black looks so slick.
Big ups for the Old Trivium love
I bought the phoenix model in this line, had it for 3 weeks now. my first non ibanez guitar and i gotta say
I'm a huge fucking ltd fan now
Omg haven't heard this song since high school also Baena soloing??!?!? This was awesome. Refreshing...yet familiar.
oh man i wish i could buy new guitars like every week lol.
You love is the black winter pickup!! Are the best
Nice guitar! The only negative is that cheap molded plastic nut on every LTD series ( include 1000´s )
What if fit for an autopsy tuned down? 🤔
I second this
I third this
I fourth this
I fifth this
Yes fucking please
Just got my black metal m series and it's a great guitar! Love esp and LTD.
I have the same guitar, but I swapped the black winter for a pegasus. Killer guitar.
Great Demo dude. Much appreciated. Curious how the BW sounds in just plain standard and drop D tunings. Still bad ass?
Opening song:
Like Light To The Flies - Trivium
I’ve been trying to get into Black Metal in general, ugh I love the aesthetic and the culture surrounding it.
Dissection, Emperor, Dimmu Borgir, and Immortal are all good places to start on black metal if you like more melodic metal. If you like more dissonant or brutal music, Mayhem, Blut aus Nord, Dark Funeral, and Marduk will suit your fancy.
Check out Vargrav - Reign in Supreme Darkness... Epic Emperor worship band that does symphonic black metal perfectly. Really captures the aesthetic and atmosphere of black metal very well. Plus it's a one man project to boot, so it's quite impressive
Der weg einer freiheit..... Check that!!
Gorgoroth. Burzum. Mayhem
Great vid man, I've got one on order as I'm left handed so I just gotta wait 😫. Sounds/ looks fantastic, can't wait!!
Damn came here to learn about this guitar, now I can't stop listening to Hollywood's bleeding!
Thanks for the review, I’m trying to pick out another eclipse. I have an ec-1000 but want a second one. I have my guitars set up so they only have one volume and single pickup so this looked appealing. I wish they would make one with binding and such but all black is a clean look. I subbed btw
So I take it that it’s good for chunky shit. I just got the viper 7 string baritone. Should have it in the next cpl days. I take this pickup can handle grindcore
Great review mate..... totally getting one!!!!!
Great video, I've been curious about this guitar for awhile, you definitely sold it, thanks!
I just got a 2013 ec-1000 and it’s really nice. The Ltd stuff seems to be really good for the price
That mix at the start sounded like Trivium to me! :P
That's what it is
Oh :/
Sounds awesome, might have sold me on buying one of these
helpful video thanks a lot!
Nice, love the content and your music. Also the guitars, keep it up man!
Andrew - do you miss the fret inlays? How visible are the glowing dots in regular lighting?
So I've been looking for a simple guitar like this. My first choice was the G&L Rampage Jerry Cantrell Tribute guitar. My second was the Kramer Baretta special and my 3rd was the Ltd F-10. I love Cantrells tone bot overall I love all kinds of music. Metal, Rock, Country, Blues and much more. My question is this... Is this guitar a one trick pony geared solely for black metal/metal? How versatile is it?
Cool video like alwas dude. I'm really curious to know how "dirty" it gets since it's a satin finish guitar? I had a Schecter years ago that got all messy just by looking at it (was a nightmare to try to keep clean). Basically wondering how sweat/dirt resitance the finish is :)
Simply put... yum
I was just trying to learn this song yesterday 😂 Suffice to say I need much more practice. Amazing!
this would be my number 1 most wanted guitar if they just included the neck pickup as well. i guess easy way to cut the price by 100 bucks for ESP but i would actually pay more. This guitar reminds me of the 30th anniversary edition which i wanted so bad in high school when it came out.
You can always buy it and add your own neck pickup... obviously you'd have to get it carved but if you really want it i guess its worth it
Shredding Baena
Love the review! I think that the black metal series isn’t meant for black metal music I think it’s more of ESPs word of play. The guitar is all black and its for metal. So its like a whimsical say hey its black and for metal it’s a black metal guitar. And I dig that. 💪💪
i tried one a week or two ago and it played great
That guitar is super clean looking!
Very helpful!!! 2 years later even...
As long as tge volume goes to eleven, I’m good 🤘🏾
Sick looking instrument!
Nice Trivium cover to kick off the review, man. I miss old Trivium.
I have noticed that you seem to like some Baby Metal. Try listening to "Inkya Impulse." It is brutal and crushing.
Just for anyones fyi it isn't called Black Metal for the music genre, but just for it's all over design :). Furthermore, I really want this and the viper-7. Probably will put in a emg H4 in it since I don't really care for Seymours. Probably would also slap on either some Cleartone Monster Heavy 13-70 or 14-80 in B or A standard.. ugh sounds soooooo satisfying now.
It definitely is named after the genre since it's also equipped with the SD Black Winter (which is voiced after black metal tones)
“I don’t like black metal”
Reilly ?
Bill o’
That guitar sounds great.
How would you compare this to a Solar A2 or S2 guitar? :) thanks
what strings do you use ? how thick are they ? for this guitar, i play in Drop C and i dont want to change to much on this guitar for using thick strings
I play with 11's, the standard Ernie Ball ones. Bottom end is thick enough to withstand playing down to Drop B (sometimes A# if careful) without going out of tune or sounding weird, but the higher end isn't super thick so the higher notes don't sound dull. That's what works for me.
Yeah, cool riff👍👍
what if municipal waste tuned down?
Just got one. So much lighter than my other 1000s
The 7 string viper gives me mahogany
I’m looking at getting one very soon. Did you switch out the strings before tuning at all or did you just use the stock strings it came with? Looking at using it for Drop A tuning most likely
Behemoth does not tickle your fancy? Maybe Satyricon? A lot of deathcore bands draw influence form black metal nowadays.
Idk about this one... Looks a bit too high priced for what it is, but then again, I own and love my Gibson les paul.
Andrew, do you still like this guitar? I'm torn between the ec256 satin black and this one . There's a 400$ price difference so I'm guessing the black metal is better. Or am I wrong? Can anyone help me out here?
where did you get that shirt?
Sorry if anyone asked this before, how did you get rid of the black metal writing on truss rod cover?
I like the guitar but when it comes to metal i REALLY dislike passive pickups. How does that pickup compare to active pickups on a similarly priced guitar?
It's a black winter pickup, a high output pickup, sounds killer for metal, despite the fact it's passive.
That guitar is begging for some old school deftones riffs \m/
The only thing I read about your comment is that Texas is in your name and I wanted to say howdy
Did you sell the 8 string LTD Eclipse? I noticed you said "had" in this video.
Hi Andrew. What string gauges did you use on this guitar?
Amazing Intro one of the best Guitar reviews i ever watch to be honest a good demo in the beginning given us the idea how it really sounds just no words man keep doing your thing 👏
Black Metal Owns.
Watain/Immortal/Dark Funeral/Dissection/Gorgoroth/Mayhem/DarkThrone/Venom/Marduk/Satyricon/Behemoth and more
and don't forget modern pioneers Mgla and Bathuska
How's the bridge pickup compared to an emg?
What tuning is this in? And what gauge strings?
Pretty confused with these LTD factories. This is made in Indonesia? On their marketing pictures that model says "KOREA" behind headstock. Some of the 1000 series are made in Indonesia also these days if rumors are right. Seems like you dont anymore know what you get if you buy LTD from mailorder.
What are you doing for distortion?
You learned how to solo nice job
crate718 trivium - like light to the flies...he didnt change the solo
Thy Cat Is Murder hes just saying that he learned how to play solos in general, because Andrew would always talk about how much he sucked at soloing
Alyus Dickey how do you know what was he implying?
Thy Cat Is Murder i just think it's obvious. He says "you learned how to solo", not "you learned how to play the/that solo"
Alyus Dickey that means that i am right...
I hear Trivium,I push the like button :3
🤘🤘🤘
Have you ever tried a Mark Holcomb PRS?
Setscrew is loose in the knob, that's why it spins forever!.... Lol
Fking sick guitar bro btw, i love it
How many guitars do you have?
TRIVIUUMMM UUFF ❤
la guitarra + cancion = 💖
what will be the price in india currency rupee
I always wondered if he could play lead
Does it have a maple cap?
ltd wa 600 or this?? , What do you think is better?, seymor duncan JB/59 or seymor duncan black winter,?
JB/59 is significantly more versatile
Can you play The Dali Thundering Concept. "Ink"?
Bro is that still the Baena5153 profile?
24.75" is not good in F# standard. 26.5" minimum. Too short makes a sloppy sound
What if Behemoth tuned down? Deafheaven? Wolves in the Throne Room? Uada? Burzum? Dark Funeral?
Behemoth plays 7 string even! :D
What desk do you use? Also what is that light behind you? I’ve been looking for a studio desk that’s like yours and I’m making a music studio and I need to know.
Light is a NanoLeaf Rythm. Desk I have no idea, something I got on craigslist for $30
Thanks dude I’m a huge fan and you a huge inspiration for me!
Btw you should do a video of how you record and mix songs on reaper and how you make videos with guitar tracks in them it would help out a lot!
for the demo...I wish you liked black metal
I like black metal, but I'm fine with this being played for metalcore/djent.
Where did you buy the green strap? I cant find it :c
Search for "dimarzio clip lock green" your welcome
I will literally sell crack for this guitar
Its called black metal because its satin black and has metallic hardware.
what if Mayhem tuned down?
It's odd to see you with a six string, but good song
My god how the fuck do you play a solo with that damn picking technique
Dude holds his pick like a pencil...led #2...pick tech...
I love ec’s. I love everything about this guitar except for the Ltd emblem. I’m getting one and removing it.
It makes no sense if he present a guitar that is made especially for black metal, and he doesn't like black metal.
Of course
It’s not made for black metal
It's just the name. It's the black version of the arctic metal I'm pretty sure
i don't like you, but i like black metal
