Extraordinary guitarist Samy Elbanna, frontman of Finnish metal band Lost Society, does the first complete demos of the new LTD Alexi Hexed and LTD Alexi Ripped guitars from our Alexi Laiho Signature Series. These are among the final guitars designed by Children of Bodom/Bodom After Midnight frontman Alexi Laiho, and feature an offset V shape with neck-thru-body construction, maple neck with natural satin finish, a Macassar ebony fingerboard (scalloped from frets 19-24) with 24 extra-jumbo frets, sawtooth inlays, glow-in-the-dark side markers, a double-locking Floyd Rose 1000 bridge, and passive EMG pickups. Video by Valtteri Lahikainen.
Let’s all just take a moment to appreciate his playing! Wow
Just listen to his band Lost Society even in this demo he played riff from song nonbeliever highly recomended and also he is a vocalist.
one of the best shreders in today's metal
RIP Metal God
Samy Elbana is the best choice for representing Alexi's legacy guitars. Both are finnishes and the great guitar players from their time and undoubtly Samy is the big fan of COB himself.
he knew alexi like his whole life they were very close friends/brothers love xx
he is on their records screaming as a damn 13-years old :-D also in the back with cob group during like all 2000-2015 gigs in Finland :-) RIP Alexi never forgotten
Love the fact that he was also a part of 100 guitars from hell with Alexi.
@@andrewnarzary7462 and apart of the local band with alexi
I love how y'all made different price point guitars for the fans who might not have the most disposable income. Good on ya ESP
Yeah now they filled out expensive and ultra fucking expensive 😁 good for us metal kids with no money 😂
@@infinidominion no disrespect, but you don't necessarily look like a kid. Nice half cab though
I thought it was an isolated guitar from Alexi when I heard that hatebreeder solo. Dude has the Alexi style nailed!!
That pickup even without the signature gain-boost really helps nail that high-mid articulation even though so many people hate the EMG-HZ series; it's the best that could be done to emulate the older tone since Jackson discontinued their preamp a long time ago, but the ESP MM-04 seems to be more versatile anyways..
Somehow Alexi's looking down and smiling: "Not to shabby, kid, not to shabby".
Cheer to all!!
Hell yea I remember listening to Lost Society when they first came out and I loved ‘‘em right away. I love how Sami is playing little bodom tunes in there.
that skill... Alexi is looking down proud /// I didnt even know that Lost Society are from Finland ...
Wow, the perfect dude to showcase these guitars. Couldn't be more on point.
So cool to see Sammy do this. been a big fan for a long time
They both look and sound great!!
Ordered my hexed model today 🎉

I read the majority of people's comments and these LTDs look AMAZING. But you can't deny this guy is a MONSTER on Guitar.
This man knows how to shred. Damnn
He played in Lost Society, one of the coolest thrash bands from Finland.
@@SillyDeal1604He still plays there but it’s not thrash any longer

I can't afford any of these guitars so I got a fake Japanese copy of the ripped one and I love it no scalloped frets but wow it's really nice I put alexi laiho emg kit in it

as soon as I heard the hatebreeder solo I knew this was gonna be good
I pre ordered the HexLtd from Sweetwater expect shipping in March, A 6 month wait will be worthwhile, I have the Greeny Ltd which is a beast the neck profile is amazing it almost plays itself😊🤘😈🍻☃️
I just got a Greeny, and I love it. So far I have 3 Ltds and I don't want to switch to another brand for a long time haha
@@samusranzer Do you have the preamp booster in any of those?
Lol, came to see a guitar, got my face melted off. Rock on!!
Why do they never mention the the scalloped frets high on the neck all shred players should add this mod to there guitars really improves the playability to the neck when playing them high notes
Badass.
We miss you Alexi!!!R.i.p

Depending on where you ordered it from, expected in March
What tuning is he in? On the hexed i mean?
From wich COB song is the first solo of this video?

RIP Alexi. Raising Hell through Heaven and back with his legacy for millenia to come. Future cultures will look back down and say "wow this COB shit was amazing"
Dude ca nshred! Not a flying V fan...but this couild change my mind! I love EMG PUs! My Schecter Sun Valley has EMGs...my Fender Powerhouse has active PUs too.
Jack Sparrow demonstrating Alexi Laiho's guitars 🤣🤣🤣
Emg should let sammy make all the guitar test
The ltd version of this is made in Japan right if anyone can tell me I'd greatly appreciate it
HI Maggot. No, we don't make any LTD models in Japan. Only our ESP Custom Shop (Original Series, Signature Series, Exhibition Limited Series) and E-II Guitars are made in Japan.
@@espguitarsusa ok so where is the hexed e 2 and ripped made at
@@JerryCowles All E-II models are made in Japan at the ESP factory.
@@espguitarsusa ok so that would be the hexed and the ripped here in this video right and if so how $ are those ones
Aye! Jack Sparrow on Guitar!
This is another great Finnish guitar player. He plays ESP guitars too... This is farewell song to Alexi Laiho. I cry with Euge's guitar every time i heard this song. R.I.P. Alexi
Euge Valovirta - A Song For An Absent Friend ua-cam.com/video/G_ouV-hDTtc/v-deo.html
Who puts an angled jack in a V-shape……
2:50 whats that riff?
Nonbeliver, a lost society song
@@nnay-0ne335
Man what a loss frfr, his emg playthrough vids back in the day were huggggeyl influential on me
I think the other best choice to demo an Alexi model would be Archie 🤘
He's so hot right now .... Mugatu and I agree ! Rock on
Thanks for the laugh lool
Rest in peace, Alexi. I've just pulled out all your albums again to thrash around town. It's time.
ESP: Could you not have put something in there to memorialize the man whose name adorns this guitar?
Like what? His signature on the headstock?
@@tonycarpaccio9550 Like a 10 second piece of video of the man, saying "This is Alexi. RIP". I think he deserves a bit more recognition than just his first name in the model's name.
Do u even rip bro
Johnny Depp and Charlie Pugh fused together to make this guy
FR series 1000 for this superb model? It should have been an Original FR… just saying…
The FR Original is offered on the E-II and ESP Custom Shop versions. Take a look: www.espguitars.com/products?categories=alexi-laiho
I’m selling an Ltd ripped with emg 81/sa
No more push pull knows with eq or distortion or whatever
Johnny Depp and Charlie Puth fused together to make this guy
Talks like he is paid to make a commercial. Wait..
Alexi formed into H-I-M = this guy
Captain Jack Sparrow!!
Suomi Perkele -> JKL Torille
Blimy did he play the feck out of them, Zakk Wylde could learn from this dude, who couldn't!!!!!
The man is dead already would you stop milking his name ?? just kidding those guitars look sick 🤘would also be great if one could still get the white one tho
Funny, but this guy plays way better than Alexi. Keep rocking!)
Grown men need to stop playing with mom's nail polish.
grown men should do whatever the fuck they want
Why are u even commenting under an Alexi themed video if u dont like grown men wearing nail polish? xd The man rocked black nail polish and guyliner his entire career and was one of the most badass mofos to ever step on a stage...
Says a BOY
Says the grown man with the name Satan on UA-cam lol
@@ironbar5786 yes but grown men by default don't want to play in mom's makeup bag.
Dude, play slower, it's not a race!
making profit off of someone who has passed away, great
I get where your coming from, but I see it differently. Alexi spec'd these out himself. There's pictures online of him with these guitars. They were going to be released as his new signature models before he passed. They aren't making profit off of him because of that. Alexi was an ESP signature artist and ESP had likely started production on these 2 models before he passed away. Was ESP supposed to throw away all of these guitars mid production and take a big financial hit so people wouldn't think they were intentionally trying to profit from an artists passing? Alexi was very happy with and proud of these new models and his estate will definitely be getting his portion of the money made from each guitar sold. So I see nothing wrong at all with releasing these. I think it would have been wrong to not offer these models to the public after he passed. This was the last project Alexi worked on with ESP so its only right that they honor his name and legacy with one last signature model to finish out his almost 2 decade long relationship with these guitars
@@k7j007 profits should go to his family or a charity like Jason beckers
@@omgdisfunny4852 His estate is his family
@@k7j007 I'm saying they're only getting a small % of the profits, they should get all of it
@@omgdisfunny4852 Fact is, Alexi designed and "played" these two models when he was still alive, and these models were intended to be released at the beginning of 2021 had he not passed away, but was then postponed because of his death.
If you go check the pics of the back of the guitar from ESP USA's website, you'll notice the sample guitar pics bore the 2020 serial number which implies these guitars were already in plans of production during 2020(when he's still alive).
What did you expect? It comes from the same school as all the great bands of the last 2 decades, Finland, an excellent successor to the god Alexi Laiho
🤘COBHC 🤘
