Baritone Performance with Viper Style

Instead of tuning down a typical six-string electric guitar for modern metal, get the ESP LTD Viper-400 Baritone electric guitar. With its 27" scale length, and factory-equipped 13–62 strings, the Viper-400 Baritone is optimized for lower tunings. And for the ultimate in aggressive guitar tone, it's loaded with EMG 85/81 active humbucking pickups. Its Thin U neck profile and extra-jumbo frets encourage fast, technical playing. Complete with high-quality Grover tuners, the ESP LTD Viper-400 Baritone delivers on every front.

Shred like a demon with this Viper-style axe

Nothing says “let's rock” like an ESP Viper-style guitar, and when you pick up the LTD Viper-400 Baritone, you'll know exactly what we mean. Its offset waist gives you the kind of comfort and balance that lets you play for hours, whereas the double-cutaway design provides easy access to the upper frets both over and under the neck. When the guitarists at Sweetwater are searching a stripped-down hard rock machine with great tone and playability, ESP’s Viper-style guitars always make the list.

A rockstar-approved pickup combination

EMG's high-output active humbucking pickups have long been standard equipment in rock and metal, and the ESP LTD Viper-400 Baritone packs an uncompromising combo of EMG-81 and EMG-85 pickups. The EMG-85 in the neck position is a beefy-sounding humbucker that is certain to drive your amp into the sweetest overdrive and distortion, and is at its best when it at high volumes. The EMG-81 in the bridge position delivers everything from a fat, thunderous growl to a metallic scream. Loaded with beefy ceramic magnets and close aperture coils, this high-output humbucker boasts unyielding intensity and unparalleled detail, along with incredible high-end cut and fluid sustain.
