There's a hole in the box...says the UPS guy...

I tried a VB-400 in the store and it seemed better balanced than the Viper-407 that I had briefly, but neither had the tone that I'm looking for.

Here are some more pics...and I like the "white" binding, lol. It gets more yellow as you get toward the guitar, must be because of the paint or something because looking at the fretboard it's white.

Nice axe. Stop taking pics and administer some metal.

If I ever buy a ESP baritone it would be this.

Hi D-EJ915 congrades on your new Viper Baritone. Just one question how do the pickups perform? you planning to change them? which would you choose?

D-EJ915 · 07-11-2006, 12:50 PM

I'm not sure exactly what I'd choose. I was thinking maybe a Duncan Distortion with a Custom...or 2 Distortions, or Distortion Invader, etc. I was also thinking about some X2Ns or something, maybe an EVO. Of course the EMGs are always an option, but since the electronics in this guitar actually work vs. my V when I got it I'd like to try out some passives first.

I obviously haven't spent all that much time with them but the bridge is much less bassy than the neck and since I think they're the same pickup is kind of odd. It does bear some semblance to the 81 but it's definitely not as hot or ridiculously awesome \m/

I think they're fine but they squeal which is weird, it's especailly with the neck pickup.

That being said, I think red pickups would look absolutely awesome in this beast \m/ ... of course I'm going to try to get some stain for that light-ass fretboard, though :XD

No, I'd think that it'd be more horribly balanced than the 7-string version but whatever, that's easy to fix.

I think I might get some passives for this biotch.

you already got passives in there

Yeah the HZs are decent, but my V-250 sounds so freaking amazing with the 81 that it pwns them into the ground, the H207 sounds terrible in comparison too, so it's not like they're baaad, just not as amazing.
