  • @espguitars I am in love...
    I've always been a massive fan of single humbucker guitars for death metal ever since I was 16 and first heard @cannibalcorpseofficial and saw Pat O'Brien's V. Ever since I've been drawn to them, owning a Jackson RR24 twice and whilst it was a great instrument I just never really gelled with it.
    After now owning 4 ESP guitars and loving all of them I can't see myself going anywhere else. This Black Metal Arrow has to be the most metal looking guitar I've ever seen. It feels unbelievably comfortable, the cutout in the body fits perfectly against the leg so not only does it look cool but ergonomically works perfect. Also the cutaway for fret access is insane, my gripe about the RR24 is that the 24th fret was on the body making it a pain to reach but here that is not an issue.

    Yeah dude, As of a year and a half ago I first saw the Black Metal series and hadnt bought myself a new guitar in several years and same as you...I thought the Arrow was the coolest guitar I'd ever seen (that wasnt Custom Shop) and got one in Nov 2019.
    Greatest decision I ever made.I play Black/Melodic Death

    I’ve been saving up for this guitar little by little since late 2019 and been on the fence about using that money to get a Schecter Reaper 7 Multiscale since I like to drop tune but now seeing this guitar again made me make up my mind 😹
    There nothing like that Floyd Rose.

    Just pulled the trigger on one, even though I am not a fan of all black guitars, but ESP/LTD gave me no other choice xD
    The Arrow shape just needs that reverse headstock, looks way cooler and meaner than the regular one!

    I have the black metal M. It is a bit heavy. Not les paul heavy. But heavier than the average electric. Perhaps on par with the weigh of a strat. Im considering getting the V as well. Is the V heavy or light weight?

    • @hunter757
      @hunter757  Місяць тому

      The V is very light, I had the M7 and that was a little heavy, but yeah the v feels like nothing

      I no longer own it unfortunately, wish I'd kept it but sold it to buy my ESP LTD ECLIPSE 87. I had no complaints about it at all, for what it did it was perfect, I just needed more versatility that was all, but if I had the money I would get it again in a heartbeat
