ESP Guitars: Custom Shop 2018 -- The Buccaneer
Вставка
- Опубліковано 6 лют 2025
- Every so often, the most senior master luthier at the ESP Custom Shop creates a handcrafted guitar that is every bit as much a fine art piece as it is a playable instrument. For 2018, that guitar is The Buccaneer... a tribute to the swashbuckling, seafaring privateers who terrorized the Caribbean in the 17th and 18th centuries. Every millimeter of the Buccaneer reflects the artistry of its creator, with detailed wood sculpting and materials finishing that goes beyond the abilities of nearly any other guitar maker. It's this ability and level of attention to detail that makes the ESP Custom Shop second to none. Music: "Deadface Anthem" by Andy James. More information on the ESP Custom Shop: www.espguitars...
The best custom shop there is without a doubt.
Ladies and gentlemen now this is a custom shop. Not the one Gibson claims
Good luck playing this one.
brutalbeetle its just an ordinary guitar..theres nothing different from bridge to nut..body is just a V shape with a design..
the only question is the weight.. ;)
brutalbeetle i play V shaped guitars, V shape guitars are easier to play than the regular strat or les paul shape..
Absolutely amazing!!! What an artist!!! That skeleton figure head piece is just about the most detailed I've ever seen. Great job guys!!!
holy crap that attention to detail is absolutely out of this universe!
Andy james is the best. Tasty riff and awesome play.
Arrrr, that really shivers me timbers! She be a real beauty!! Praytell, does she djent?
Geir Nevjen no this is for Alestorm haha
I would feel blessed even seeing this beauty in person
Great masterpiece work! I could never think that a pirate ship could be turned into guitar! Rise up the sails!
The detail here is unbelievable..this is an amazing piece of art
Damn! I respect the fact that a designer can come with such a crazy and complex design and the builders just say "yeah let's do it"
That is truly a masterpiece!!!
This thing is so extra!! I love it
this is a real example of what skilled Luther's can do. pretty impressive
Even though it s a little bit "too much", the skill level of this luthier is just stunning
Thanks! real custom shop!
And masterpiece!
I don't think other brands can near to this level even by using of CNC machine!
Frikin amazing. It looked cool upon reveal, but is even more impressive seeing it come together piece by piece.
What the hell! You guys built the greatest art guitars! Dream!
That’s a piece of art!
Looks sick!
Simply epic
Impeccable
now this is when its justifiable to charge crazy amounts for a guitar as by far the best iv'e ever seen
AMAZING
THIS IS INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fidget spinner
Get someone that shreds with these masterbuilds at the end of these videos!!
That is awesome.
Ufff..
Esta brutal la guitarra..
Now that's art
What's a pirate's favorite letter???
Many people say it is the R,
Some even say it is the I,
But a pirate only loves: The C.
Is it too bad i got the joke?
This guitar is for Running Wild or Alestorm i think!
Rising Sun Alestorm 🤘
Rising Sun no, for Swashbuckle !
“ only a Gibson is good enough ..
ESP : “ hold my beer ….”
I want this sooooooo bad
These f***ers are crazy. I love esp guitars.
Stunning, but how do you play it with that wheel in the way?
Arts and crafts
Now this is a custom shop that everyone wants...
ufff que vaina mas brutal muy buena esa guitarra
Best guitars on earth
sin lugar a dudas esp hace las guitarras mas hermosas que son arte puro
lo que siempre me deja en intriga es como es su desempeño de las guitaras de este tipo
Dope
Seems like the steering wheel would be annoying where it is placed, but that's so cool!
Man Disney is really upping the Pirates of the Caribbean production
Funny that an Andy James song is playing since he just left ESP for Kiesel very recently, right after he released his new signatyre models.
So the helm is the volume knob or...? This is fancy driftwood.
are you kidding me??? just wow.
The only true custom shop. ESP
Would it be cliche to have Johnny depp playing this guitar lol
Probably only weighs 65 - 70 lbs..
But it's very cool...great craftsmanship.
the barnacles add to the tone characteristics, sweetening the low-mid range about 3kh
Someone is an artist. That is just amazing Why not put the wheel on the bottom of the V? Or is it for a lefty?
Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, that they didn’t stop to think if they should.
Landry Saathoff It’s a fucking guitar, of course they should lmao.
That is intense. o:
Seems to be in Asia somewhere - going by the writing. Amazing work! I can‘t imagine playing it with that huge steering wheel on the upper part, though.
Hans Baumeister ESP Custom Shop in Japan
"Hey, look! We made awesome looking guitar, but nobody knows how to play it. And yes, that shit's expensive"
I love how this video already has comments bashing other shops instead of just appreciating this one. Shut up.
4:14 What is that switch for? Right next to the output jack.
I also wonder, if the ship's wheel is actually the volume knob ;)
Magnus Hardt looks like it's the volume knob mounted in a recessed fender jack plate.
BuildYourOwnBass Yeah, maybe you're right. Thanks.
Can you imagine trying to keep the dust out of all the crevices?
Looks sick though.
Does it work
I honestly wanna buy it. Anybody know where I can find this?
Amazing. Unplayable ?
But how does it sound and play?
From now on, Iced Earth's Black Flag is just allowed to be played with this guitar.
Would love to do the jack sparrow theme on this one.
Not a fan of the steering wheel the rest is awesome
Thar be an ALESTORM a'brewin!
We got milions of front fotos but no sound test
All of these guitars look amazing. Are any of them actually playable?
DaveDontGiveADamn they aren't meant to be really. You could, but it would be uncomfortable af. It's more showing off the woodworking capabilities of their builders
Amazing! Did you clear fill those cracks in the fretboard so it's smooth?
Well damn. I haven't even watched finish the video but this is impressive as fuck!!!
I guess you could say it's worth a lot of "booty." I'll let my self out.
I could imagine jack sparrow playing this in a guitar hero battle.
How much does it weight ? 30kg ? :p
It's an exhibit, not a guitar for playing.
I didn't know Paul Jr. from Orange County Choppers was working at ESP.
Wouldn't mind having that thing on my wall. Not too sure about actually playing it.
Andy James in the background
I would be scared to touch this
What? You aded a fidget spinner behind the headstock?
Walk the plank!
Don’t the marks in the fretboard make it unplayable???
Dose any body know who are playing this fucking awsome song and guitar.
sounds like Andy James😅🤘
0:18 Looks like Andy James lol
Incredible guy!
looks like an esp guitar
Blistering bernacles, thundering typhoons...
Does it Djent?
Fucking brutal
Behold! The CS guitar with the biggest USEFUL Fidget spinner!
Alestorm approves of this.
Congratulations, your guitar weighs as much as it costs.
(Still pretty fuckin' awesome!)
With this guitar you can play the high C's
Not bad for a flying V. Kinda oldschool, but nice looking.
They should've played drink by alestorm
If you just got rid of the wheel it would be awesome to play as well as look at .
$60k?
Beautiful craftsmanship, though I think it would be a little irritating trying to play it. Nice eye candy, but not my first choice lol
HOLY Santa Claus SHIT!
I'll take 7
The question is, can it actually be played and how does it sound?
Adam Markey That's what I want to know.
Adam Markey dude, if it's built by the guitar masters at ESP JAPAN, then you don't have to even wonder if it's as much of a player as a looker.
of course no
it's an ornament , u just hang it on the wall of your villa
and clean it everyday cuz if it gets scratched u ll get scarred for life
Probably could. But it's gonna be a pita to play
Adam Markey fuck that!! At those levels of woodworking, the playability it's irrelevant
(still cool if it sounds tho...)
wow if only james labrie played guitar in Dream Theater
Nice, but can you actualy play on this thing?
