LTD Viper 256

LTD is the most affordable line of guitars and basses from ESP Guitars, a highly respected Japanese brand known for rock, metal, and demanding styles. It was created to bring ESP design, aesthetics, and character closer to musicians seeking instruments that are more budget-friendly but still offer excellent performance for rehearsals, live performances, and studio work. Its catalog includes models like Eclipse, EC, MH, M, TE, SN, and many signature guitars, with options ranging from entry-level series to more comprehensive lines such as LTD Deluxe 1000. A very appealing brand for guitarists looking for punch, comfort, and modern styling without the high prices of ESP USA, ESP Original, or E-II.
