ESP LTD VIPER-1000VB Electric Guitar – Vintage Black (B-Stock)

Condition: B-Stock (brand new with minor cosmetic blemishes)

The ESP LTD Viper-1000VB in Vintage Black is built to bring aggressive tone and bold style to the stage. With its distinctive asymmetrical double-cutaway shape and aged matte finish, this B-Stock model offers premium tone and construction at a reduced price—perfect for players who want high-end performance without breaking the bank.

Built with set-thru neck construction and a 24.75" scale length, the Viper-1000VB offers excellent access to the upper frets, perfect for high-speed soloing. The guitar’s mahogany body is paired with a 3-piece mahogany neck shaped in a fast Thin “U” profile. A Macassar ebony fingerboard with ESP flag inlays and 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets makes this guitar ready for aggressive riffing and fluid bends.

Outfitted with a pair of Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers—ceramic in the bridge and alnico in the neck—this guitar delivers ultra-versatile tone. A push/pull tone knob lets you switch between two distinct voicings on each pickup: from active aggression and clarity to passive-inspired warmth and organic response. The gold pickup covers match the guitar’s premium gold hardware, including LTD locking tuners and a TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece.

Finished in matte Vintage Black with aged binding on the neck and headstock, the Viper-1000VB blends vintage aesthetics with modern performance. Case sold separately.
