Love this guitar
I like to play heavy metal and doom Metal and this guitar has been perfect for those genres. Has a nice tone and doesn't feel too heavy to hold when playing. Love buying from Sweetwater. Highly recommend this guitar and buying from Sweetwater!
The Best!
Such a great place to shop online for gear. My sales engineer Paul was fantastic, and my gear arrived earlier than I expected. Thanks Sweetwater.
I never write reviews on anything

Beautiful Guitar
What a beautiful guitar! Looks great and plays great, what more could one ask for? One thing further, thanks to Sweetwater for being such a great company that really looks out for its customers. The customer service is simply above and beyond what one would expect in this day and age. Hope they never change.
Holy ESP!
I fell in love with ESP once I found out some of my favorite guitarists use them. While this isn't my dream Viper, this is still a wonderful one to have at a mid-level skilled guitar player. I was debating between this and the Epiphone SG400. Glad I went with this. I like that I can get vintage sounds from it with a bit of an extra crunch to it. Add on some distorted fuzz and WOW this thing can make the windows rattle! It's my new cherished ax and I can't see myself parting with it any time soon. Plus, Sweetwater guys made sure it arrived in pristine condition. Proper protection, proper tuning, everything was great. Cannot recommend this site and this guitar enough!
Everything and More!
I have been playing guitar for the majority of my life and have always loved the SG shape. I used to have an SG, but I sold it a while ago. I was looking for a guitar that could take a beating and also sound great. I settled on this guitar and I couldn't be more happy. The tone is stellar with just the stock pickups and the whole body resonates when you strike a chord. An amazing guitar for sure. I would recommend to anyone, beginner or professional!
Killer guitar
Just received my Viper-256 from Sweetwater today and the guitar is absolutely killer. Great quality and a great price. Plus, I couldn't be happier with the service I received from the Sweetwater team.
