LTDs and ESPs are incredible guitars.
Totally diggin the Lynch vibes in this video. Got an LTD Arrow 401 a few years ago (2018 or 2019 maybe). It's my go-to. Love it. I'd love to play one of 87 super strats.
That IS awesome! You're opening is killer. The guitar sounds better than I was expecting.
I think that Maple neck gives it a Brighter sound. I love it.
Sweetwater'ssite says: "The ESP-designed LH-150B in the bridge is a low-output humbucker that allows your chosen amp to do the heavy lifting, resulting in a thunderous but clean tone. Lynch learned over decades of playing that the lower-output pickups gave him the necessary room when dialing in his amp for the wall of heavy sound he became known for." !!!!!!!!!!
I have a PAF style pickup in my EVH bee. It is ~9K. It cleans up well and absolutely rips of course.
Right? I was wondering about that pickup in the literature, thinking I'd immediately want to replace it....
I have this guitar and it has the best neck profile of anything I’ve ever played. I’ve had it since the first run back in 2010 or something and it’s still my favorite neck.....even beats my Charvels, Jackson’s, Gibson’s, etc. I put a Scream’n Demon in it (of course) and it rips! 🤘🤘
Isn't the demon a lower output pickup ?
I had a solid white, one as a kid, and that thing was just dynamite! 🧨 🎸
Ohh, so perfect for your 80's course! I've taken a tiny break from it but shall return shortly as I absolutely love it. (just other shit that needs my attention and need full focus for it).
I had one of these with a Duncan Screaming Demon. It was sick but the finish really wasn't my thing unfortunately. Would like to get a single humbucker super strat again sometime and throw in an Arcane Mr Scary humbucker
Sire Larry Carlton all series is one for all to worry about. Just BUILD!!! You can get better results with a quality Luthier setting it up after you design it yourself and haul it to the luthier to build, or more funner; build it and have the luthier unscrew your attempt while showing the way to do it the right way. Keep rockin!
A few years ago i loved the tiger guitar so much i built a clone. I want to buy the paintjob on my clone was done by a luthier and is gar superior to this one.
Sweet intro playing! Havent even finished the vid yet but had to comment.
I put a Seymour Duncan Distortion pickup in my Kamikaze and I love it.
Got a purple Baretta Special a couple of years back, similar idea but much cheaper of course. Trem is cheap but a decent high output humbucker, lightweight and plays great. But the main point is it's FUN to play. Sure, It's not the one I play the most but it puts a smile on my face. Got to say considering the specs this a decent price for a signature model LTD.
I’ve got this model. I swapped the pickup for a Screamin Demon because I had an extra one laying around that I was intending for another project but went a different direction on. I recalled the stock pickup sounded great, as you’ve illustrated here. And yes, I’d definitely be interested in a giveaway for this one!
The thing with the esp tiger is that it was stated to be heavier then other strat types. Maybe they are sticking to the original tiger as much as possible.
Maple bodies! Thats why Goeorge was all buff 💪 😂
I wonder if they changed it. I don't remember my 200 being heavy but I didn't have it long. My 600s are Maple
LTD has to be my favorite brand for the money. I have five LTDs in including two Lynch models, one ESP, and one Edwards. You should get your hands on an E-2 next. That’s my next purchase. They are phenomenal!
I bought an LTD George Lynch Kamikaze used about 6 months ago.
I went to buy a Schecter, and my local shop had LTD guitars. I really liked the voicing on the double humbucker LTD. Played like butter and the wood finish was beautiful. I came home with the H 1001 LTD, no regrets.
LTD (ESP's lower-price brand) is owned by the same guy as Schecter and they are made in the same factory. They are both great brands and make great guitars.
@@DanielBobke I did not know that they were corporately related. I agree, both brands offer good guitars.
I have tried a few times an Esp LTD m1000 multi scale and although I am usually not into that kind of stuff playing that guitar I found that it was really easy to play and got used to the fan fret very quickly. The fun thing is that I went to try the iconic amp in my local store and I asked the sales guy give me any guitar without a Floyd Rose so I could what this amp had in the tank. I did come back a few times to try for that guitar I was pleasantly surprised. Since then I have kept an eye on ESP releases 😊
Played GL's OG Tiger on multiple occasions, and it is REALLY heavy (felt almost double of an average LP). Had one of his hand-wound Mr. Scary p/u in it at the time, tone was crazy cool, even through a tiny Marshall practice amp dry. Good times!
FN Sweet, love me some Lynch, and that guitar is wicked. If I already didn’t own all shredders, I might consider this now, but I’ll wait for used or an open box purchase for this if it comes up.
Dude, never sleep on ESP - they just deliver. The LTD AS1 Alex Skolnick I have is a Les Paul killer. Seriously.
I have a EC-1000 deluxe and an MH series with emg's. Good stuff!
The OG Tigerstripe was build by George Lynch himself with part he bought from the Charvel San Dimas Custom Shop.
This is basically a production version of it and it's heavy because it has a maple body like the OG.
I got a JH200 and a V50 and they are great guitars
I have both Fenders and Gibsons...but my most recent guitar acquisition has been a LTD EC1000 blue fade. The hardware, fit and finish is no joke, I love the traditional feel of my Gibson LP's and the fact you kinda need to fight with then in some ways....but the LTD design, along with the ebony FB and stainless steel frets make it my easiest playing guitar by a fair bit, the thing is effortless and with the Seymour Duncan Sentient/Pegasus set it's a beast.
You should try the ESP E-II’s !!!
Gibson hasn't anything in that price range, but I don't think they're worried about getting the Babymetal/Cookie Monster vocals/shredding sales 😁 A lot of Gibson and Fender players WANT clean tones and tone controls.
My lone Strat-shaped object (Squier Bullet) had a single humbucker and volume. Because it was a cheap, pawn shop score, I butchered the guard, drilled an extra hole and put in a Gibson P-90 and a tone control. I don't remember what I did with the 'bucker...
Anything that hurts Gibson’s sales is a worry. Irrespective of guitar style. The Fender has been a thorn in Gibson’s side for decades.
There is competition from Gibson at LTD, the Kramer baretta models whose "graphic" series offers for a price equal to this LTD or even lower a Seymour Duncan JB pickup and a detuna on the floyd rose. So I agree with you in the sense that LTD certainly doesn't scare Gibson 😉
@@Lolo.13 yes, I own a Baretta Vintage and I am well aware of Kramer’s ownership (fairly recent as far as guitar history goes). My comment puts that aside, if you know what a Fender guitar is.
Gibson has a line of Kramers in this price and market range.
@@michaelmenkes7233 The red single pickup beretta sucks, I got a ugly pink one, sent it back and got my Jackson, which are the best for the money and they are excellent quality
LTD's higher end is known as ESP. You need to check out the Alexi Laiho signature models, both ESP and LTD.
Getting HUGE George Lynch vibes from this tiger pattern axe. Getting even bigger 1980’s feelings from that guitar as well.
I can’t wait to try your free course. I missed the 80’s guitar sale but I still plan on getting it.
I want his courses but unfortunately my stupid kindle fire won’t accept his format so I’m screwed ugh😩
According to ESP, that pup is low output! 🙄😂
Pretty sure Lynch has stated he didn't want a mega ultra-hot pickup. He wanted it to be more of a medium-output pickup, and wanted his Amps to do the work. I mean... I'm sure the pup is plenty hot. But I don't think it's really in that "hot" range, as we think.
Lynch used to used Duncan Distortion pickups for years, then had the Screamin Demon designed with a low output, contrary to the name.
Good review , your the first guy to do a review and make a good comment on the. GL tiger (ltd) version by mentioning how fun and easy it was to play , a lot of other guys never mention that, their to busy nitpicking the tone or the overall build , playing should be fun , good job again .
I've got the ESP LTD Les Paul, it's a great guitar,I think it's a EC256 or something like that. Its got Dadarrios 10s. Plays awesome.
I have an Ec-256 with flamed top in a heritage burst, love the tone and the jumbo frets are the cats meow.
Nice, mine's a blueburst,gorgeous.
I've had/have a few LTD's and they give you soooo much value for your money. I love them. ...but I pretty much always swap out the pickups.
Sounds incredible!! Would be a great giveaway too!!
Bought a E-II arrow sat Christmas! The tiger stripe is awesome
Sounds sweet as hell. I played a ltd for a bit borrowed also, I just didn't have an electric at the time and a good friend let me use it for a few minutes and I've loved the sound ever since. And Lynch is a huge influence on my playing.
Thanks Robert great playing as always. I forgot about that Lynch song you played
YES! Bring on some more LTDs!
Thank you....I want one of these now !,,! (oo) !,,! 04:40 was killer ....trying to work it out, are you de-tuned?
I have a Ltd JMII - Josh middleton sig. It is so nice. Perfect SS frets and build. Ya its not a comparison for a strat as far as sound but it's built better than the 3 strats I've had. Ive read the silver sky se's are built in the same factory as ltd.
I should mention that I bought a fender player plus hss Andertons fsr a few weeks ago when fender put them on a weekend 30% off sale. And I had to send it back for multiple legit reasons. They were awesome to deal with and I just recieved the new one yesterday and this one is really nice. Rolled fingerboard and Fret ends are literally perfect. The frets aren't really finished that nice as far as the shaping of the top of the frets. I think they just get the neck flat and run a straight edge sander across the tops of the frets so any high ones aren't buzzing. But that leaves your frets with some flat spots and some that are completely untouched and round and some that are kinda both. It works I guess. Everything else about the build on this one is really nice compared to some of the goofy things they let go through quality control on the first one I had. I mean they are asking 1330 retail on these, they aren't cheap.. I got it for 40% off because of added fender play 10% discount but still..
I have many guitars, and my two ltd's are about my favorite to play. An ec 1000 and the eclipse 87- both rule! And available for lefty's!
Like mine so much had a matching custom made leather strap made for it.
I had one of these, it was a good sounding and playing guitar but I found it a bit heavy in weight and also the strings in the floyd rose special kept popping out of the saddles
Love my ESP LTD Custom Mirage 1987. It has fast become my favorite new guitar.
I've got 5 LTDs and 2 E-IIs => awesome guitars. I've already ordered the new LTD GL Desert Eagle. Can't barely wait to receive it
Lynch was huge, both physically and metaphysically in the 1980’s 😂❤ I never made it to a Dokken show, but I did enjoy the M tv videos. I went to so many shows in the 1980’s but they were never on the bill! 😢
My primary issue with any LTD I've ever played has been that they're too light. I'm glad this one is a bit heavier. Being too light makes guitars feel cheap to me.
I want a tele with a country twang pickup then another pickup that is good for metal/rock. Whats the best tele for that whether it be a squire or fender
Great seeing you picking up an LTD guitar.
KILLER guitar!!!! I have wanted one of these forever! Hemmed and hawed over one on E-Bay like 7 or 8 years ago, that looked to be in perfect condition, and was cheap! The guys was asking a great low price for it.... I messed around for a day or so.... gone! I still think about it. I'll end up grabbing a new one at some point. Maybe due a trade to get into one. They are awesome guitars!
Hey Robert!!! I was going through some old guitars just the other day. I bought an LTD super stratty thing with two buckers and a licensed Floyd. It was an inexpensive new purchase. I haven't played it in a while. Bottom line, the quality of that guitar is seriously mind blowing for a $500 piece. Everything about it is really well done. Cheers
My Ltd ec256 with standard push pull is my go to. If Gibson made it it would be at least $1k more.
I bought mine 11 years ago and will NEVER let it go!
I found an older LTD George Lynch GL-500 on reverb a few years back. Love it. LTD has some good guitars for the price. I also love the ESP custom Kelly Hayes model I found a while back, too.
I really hope they release those again (purple tiger ) and (green kamikaze ) , I missed out on those and they are really pricey now .
I am always amazed at what a light touch Robert has on the fretboard. It looks like he hardly presses down on the strings. I wish I could have his technic. Unfourtunatly for me old habits die hard.
Recently picked up an EC-256, it's stellar, I reach for it before I reach for my Les Paul Studio.
Would love to have that guitar. ESPs are fantastic quality guitars.
Looks like a lot of fun to play and would love to try an ESP/LTD some day... I am however a bit let down that these days a 700.00 guitar gets you a FR Special. Those used to be relegated to 450.00 and under guitars. Not that a special is terrible, some work pretty good... But for 700.00 you should get better quality. It wasn't that long ago you could get a Mexican made San Dimas with a Floyd 1000 for 799.00 and that came with Bourns pots and a Duncan JB in the bridge with a 59 in the neck... Great looking guitar though.
Legit 80's Time Machine Playing and Tones! 🎸🎼
Sounds nice! Is this guitar and the EVH striped guitars comparable in your opinion?
The EVH comes with compound radius
I don't think George and Eddie had anything similar in necks. I don't know the specs on 200 but George's had big thick necks with Jumbo frets. I don't know what Eddie was into
Nice playing. Oh the good old days! When guitarists just rocked out.
.. I have one of those and it's one of my favorite guitars in my whole collection!!!
I'd suggest a used 600 over the 200 any day. Which I have one one Reverb. Licensed Floyd. Believe is screamin demon but I've never pulled it
You should do a review on a LTD EC 1000 it's one of my favorite guitars
I had that guitar. It’s pretty good, but I found the pick up to be a little bit muddy.
I have the EC-1000 and its the guitar I play everyday. So comfortable, sounds great and made other guitars in the house obsolete.
Interesting that it’s heavy. Basswood is usually lightweight.
Awesome sounding and looking axe! I would love for you to offer it in a giveaway!
You mentioned the Seymour Duncan Screamin’ Demon. It’s not a hot pickup by any means, rather it is on par with a 59. Try one if you have a chance. It is my go-to.
I bought a used ESP Lynch signature series. Someone put a Black Winter in it. I compared it playing with Screamin Demon and really like it but although I love George and the tones he had I'm a distortion nut when it comes to my own playing. I plan on replacing most with Black Winter. No clue on spec differences, I just like it
Yes!!!! Send her my way!!!
I have two older LTDs and they're fabulous axes. Their quality of construction is top notch and they generally punch well above their weight category. One is good enough as is that I'm leaving it alone, whilst the other started great too but I'm using it as a mod platform.
I have an LTD MH-203QM and it's got similar parts to this guitar. I really liked it at first (the neck is sweet, the body is sweet, finish is awesome for the price) but the Floyd Rose Special is so darn cheap, that it went defective and rendered the guitar, a paperweight (until I get around to replacing it).
I'm actually about to purchase some of the titanium lock blocks for my Schecter Damien Elite FR but I clicked on your video, first...dang ADD. I want to try out the whole Titanium parts upgrade kit but, man, I don't want to spend $290 USD on it. Might just buy the replacement blocks for both my LTD and Schecter...the weakest link on both guitars is the lock blocks and also, the cheap metal of the FR Special, is not conducive to good resonance so they sound a little "thin", which doesn't help the ESP Design PUPs from sounding so "tinny". I kind of want to try the Stainless steel and titanium blocks, to see if there's a whole lot of difference to justify the price (I know TI is expensive).
That intro was SOO George! So Dokken. Dig it. I wish they would bring back the ST 200 series. They wereGreat!
Looks like LTD is trying to take on the Kramer Baretta, and just like the Baretta would be a cool giveaway guitar! 🤘🏻
Dude, your 80s stuff absolutely kills 🎸🔥
Ltd are slick 👌 that being said the paint jobs cool but I wish the whole thing had it not jsut the top?
I suck at Floyd Rose. It’s on my bucket list, finally learn how to change strings on a Floyd rose. I have to put a block of wood in my Dimebag ML
Block of wood is a great technique. Seems like you know the Floyd.
I think that would be a great giveaway. Looks like fun
I Want it!!!
I love LTD's, great guitars especially when you get up to $800+ bones !!! Oh, nice price tag on that one..👍🏼
I had an LTD Hetfield. Kinda cool but it lacked something for me.
Interesting look and sound. Totally different in a lot of ways. Good idea for a giveaway.
That's funny. The description of the pickup on Sweetwater says it's a low-output humbucker
Would you make an AxefxIII video?
when I first saw the pic, I thought it was a Satchel signature
Big Lynch fan since the 80s, and been eyeing this for years and years... just never pulled the trigger. I like the simplicity of it as well since I rarely use anything but the lead pickup anyway. No apologies; I do what I do which is primarily 80s rock and metal!
By all means give it away!
( surprised to hear it is heavy. I would not have guessed. I have had a LP style LTD for almost 20 years, but like a fool I tried to replace ( the best stock pups I have ever heard) with EMGs; swap was botched and never revisited it)
George at least in past pretty much always used Maple bodies. I'm not sure if all the LTD signatures have been though
Awesome love some Dokken!!!!!!
Higher end LTD: try the JR-7 Javier Reyes 7 string coming in at a whopping 2200.00 with the Fishman Fluence open core pickups…it’s siiiiicck
Playing is tasty as always.
Sounds great. Great for a give away!
I am so interested in this one!! Reminds me of the ESPs that George Lynch used to play, in the 80s, with Dokken!! Yes, Please, to the Giveaway!!
great guitars but i struggle with 42mm nut.
Love this!!
We can tell you're having fun with this guitar! Great playing, great video!
I always thought that was a slick looking headstock.
Screamin Demon is actually a lower output pickup at about 10k.
I have this guitar. Awesome. Love it
There are so many awesome guitars outside your grandfathers Fender and Gibson, you got to try a Dean and some old Peavey Tracers and Nitros.
I love those old peaveys , Destiny /Vandenberg too and the same time period Fernandes super strats .
I think the Yamaha Revstar is the guitar to watch out for, in the Les Paul realm.
Would love to see a Viper vs SG or LP vs. Eclipse shootout.
I've got an old ltd Viper 301, an R9 and an E2 Eclipse. I could do that. I don't have an SG though.
