Members esizer Posted September 20, 2012 Members Share Posted September 20, 2012 Hey guise! :wave: Just got my LTD Viper in and she's a beauty! Fit and finish are great, although the pickguard is a little scratched up. Came very playable right outta the box, although I haven't had the chance to play through an amp though. Here are some pictures...sorry for the crappy cell phone pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Spaced Out Ace Posted September 20, 2012 Members Share Posted September 20, 2012 o0o0o, she's purdy. Kinda reminds me of the back and neck of my H-500. And I that headstock on the H's. I know some like it, but I hated the cockstock, and I really hate the F headstock they have on them now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Shask Posted September 21, 2012 Members Share Posted September 21, 2012 Awesome I was playing my Viper 401 last night just because I was thinking about all the threads the last few days... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Spaced Out Ace Posted September 21, 2012 Members Share Posted September 21, 2012 Awesome I was playing my Viper 401 last night just because I was thinking about all the threads the last few days... Played a 407 for a few minutes... was extremely overpriced considering it was used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mesa/Kramer Posted September 21, 2012 Members Share Posted September 21, 2012 $199 was quite the deal while they lasted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members esizer Posted September 21, 2012 Author Members Share Posted September 21, 2012 I'll take a peek again but it looked like the pickguard is just scratched up...otherwise I just overlooked the plastic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 100 watt Posted September 21, 2012 Members Share Posted September 21, 2012 Great score. The higher end LTD vipers are badass. My beat to hell Viper 400 curb-stomps. Wish I had one of the 256's The "It's not a real ESP" snobs can suck my arsehole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members esizer Posted September 21, 2012 Author Members Share Posted September 21, 2012 Yeah, I'm seriously considering the EC-1000 traditional....and I derp'd hard, there was plastic on that pickguard, it was just very thin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members recordingtrack1 Posted September 21, 2012 Members Share Posted September 21, 2012 I'm glad to see that SOMEBODY was smart enough to take up that deal! Great job! If I didn't have so many freakin' electrik gitars, I would have bought that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members esizer Posted September 21, 2012 Author Members Share Posted September 21, 2012 The p/u's are stacked coil...I am debating dropping some authentic P-90's in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, didn't they move 400/500 series guitar manufacturing to Indonesia? I had a Korean MH-201 in see thru purple that was super sexy, but I hate Floyd's so I sold it. The Floyd was kinda {censored}ty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My EC-1000 was a pretty killer guitar. I sold it because I didn't play it enough and I didn't want to mess with EMGs but for the price, especially used, pretty nice. If you look around you can probably find one ~$400 or less in good shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members esizer Posted September 22, 2012 Author Members Share Posted September 22, 2012 I love the traditional one in faded cherry sunburst. 22 frets, duncan alincos, ebony board, locking hardware, and the best part...599.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the non-EMG ones are even cheaper. only 22 frets instead of 24...but i don't use 22 anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
