UTILIZATION

The handle is a real joy! It is well in hand, quite rounded and plump but still thin and flat enough for a quick style of play.
No problem for the rhythm and shred!

What is great with a Flying V guitar fairly extreme forms such as Ninja is that it is perfectly balanced! Let go there and it takes up ... It's PERFECT
Access to acute impeccable comfort top ... The grip is instantaneous.

Plug and Play ... Play and Joy!

SOUNDS

I play mainly Metal and I am a huge fan of everything that Arch Enemy ... So it falls quite well;)
Level sound is terrible. We feel the full force of a perfect violin. The sound is incredibly rich and distinctive, even with EMG pickups.
The clean in the neck position is very friendly and is comparable to models more "wise". It's hot, it's round, it's sweet ... One may risk the bluesy outbursts without shame, the very opposite!
In the bridge position is more crystal-clear and it crunch faster. Logic. In short, always a pleasure! For arpeggios to Metallica, with a little chorus ... top

Moving to the saturated! Then as you say that bridge will have to think to call the fire brigade and the police because this deposit serious! A maximum amount of gain and dynamic, super angry and literally bites the guitar power chords! A mistress of metal! With the gameplay copy of this guitar, you have a stage animal in the hands!
The handle is saturated with flute, melodious and warm ... If you want to feel the full force of melodic solos Amott there's no better;)

I play on a 100W amp ENGL Fireball Retube preamp (12AX7 EH - Tung Sol ECC803S - JJ ECC83 - Sovtek 12AX7WA) plugged into an Orange PPC412 cab (Celestion V30) and I guarantee it's FATAL

A comparison of my Hammett LTD Signature KH602, finishes and sound are well above (even if the KH stands up very well!). The price difference is justified for those who want to provide the means!

OVERALL OPINION

I still can not find it negative ... When you buy a guitar like this is that we know why.

The short scale is great for fans of floating vibrato bends tired like me. The Sperzel's insurance exchange strings in the blink of an eye.

Quality, violin, finishes ... comfort and feeling ... the ITS. An exceptional guitar for any musician looking for a confirmed Flying V out of the ordinary!

From a purely subjective opinion, the ESP Ninja is the signature of Mr. Amott I prefer. I'll probably remove the EMG for another active or passive config ... Duncan Blackouts, Bare Knuckle Aftermath ... To see!

Like any ESP signature it comes from Japan.

22 frets, gibson bridge type, volume 2 no Tone (Tone at the same time is often a background for everyone ... then good) mechanical locking Sperzel.

At the moment I have not seen any problem with violin, fortunately also considering the price.

UTILIZATION

Set Mahogany neck part 3 / 22 frets rosewood fingerboard, Jumbo frets, inlaid with 'X-shaped'

With a broad belt, there is a little gn for access to acute, but it still will not kill either. This guitar is quite light, even slightly, perfect.

In terms of ergonomics, how is a flying V, you have to like playing in a sitting position different.

SOUNDS

Michael Amott being the guitarist of Arch Enemy (among others), it is clear that this guitar is not made to play funk, but rather the metal pchu well as it should.

2 Seymour Duncan Jeff Beck Humbuking + 59, what do not you?

As big fan of Arch Enemy and many other groups, with my amp, I get a more than perfect (with Rack Intelifex, three giant Preamp and power amp Steavens) Mount in 11/58, agreement OD, its bold and very accurate, either plain or saturated.

OVERALL OPINION

Already has other ESP (ESP James Hetfield and explore black LTD f 2005), there is no photo, ninja v is before without problem.

Ttc for 2165, it was a beautiful guitar, certainly not given to everyone.

- Ergonomics dchire it because it's good custom guitar is beautiful super convenient in every respect, it is ultra lgre!
- Do not close our eyes I make her death so the level I think there is nothing better that watching the designer (Michael Amott Arch Enemy), or Nergal of Behemoth and it plays scne ca pt everything!

SOUNDS

- For metal niquel is, for all the skiing is also clear is really 59 gnial for its clear!
- I play on an amp so it ENGL powerball pte to death, and pod xt pro in computer music nothing to compare with my jackson (emg 81 in bridge) the power of JB is bigger warmer!
- The types of sounds are trs polylent based on micro easily we get used to sound a nag or ca trs trs crystallin

OVERALL OPINION

- It's been two days we will say that I speak too soon but it's been ages for me to try to scratch and have the crack on it so when I tested it and saw the mess I above functions as a base ca DGOM
- What I like most is ergonomics, and sound made that there was no damage to the same version of the ninja 600 in pink floyd
- I tested Ibanez, Jackson, BC Rich, Cort, and my choice is made easy with esp
- Report a quality price niquel ski compartment is said above is not a guitar I 2169.8 I pay 1100 and some new prices should review it!
- If I had to redo this choice ra fucking yes!

Already discussed.

The only difference is that my model is 2007 on mine deseptembre the bridge is a locking Tonepros as also to the tailpiece block.

Bone nut
Sperzel

UTILIZATION

The neck is super thin but wide enough (compared to BC Rich and others) (BC is not the rich who'll break your wrist so it is fine).
There is no connection between the handle and body. (Which is not the case on the model LTD).
The "cutaway" is very well penssé.

22 frets access to the last fret finger is in the nose. Thus one can feel the lack of a 2cases or more, but personally I prefer not to have that 22 to keep a large space between the two microphones.

It is very light, that's what I was...…

22 frets access to the last fret finger is in the nose. Thus one can feel the lack of a 2cases or more, but personally I prefer not to have that 22 to keep a large space between the two microphones.

It is very light, that's what I was immediately surprised it is much lighter than my LTD EC 1000 yet it is also full mahogany / rosewood.
Not the same we must believe.

The ergonomics are excellent, I get better to play it up that my EC 1000. Play sitting poses no real problems.

SOUNDS

Yes this scraper is very versatile because of its pickups and violin (mahogany requires).

I play on 8000 2203 Marshall JCM fully Retube: KT88, 12AX7 and one 12AT7 2. With a Marshall 4 * 12 mounted (for now) with only two vintage 30 and the sound is excellent.
I am given a semitone below 10/46 in the original. Blues, rock, shred, riff at the BLS, Megadeth spend quiet ....

I mainly use a modified V847 Wah True Bypass, an EVH phaser, a Zakk Wylde overdrive, a gate and a smart chorus M134.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for about 1 month.

The characteristic I like most is the fact that there have no visible physical connection between the handle and the body (set-through so).

No little I am that my third guitar and I've never tried before buying.
I know ......

I find very good value for money, I do not see what other brand has as good!

I would do this choice without a doubt.
Besides, I think to buy the new model See Through Black will come out soon.
