    The LTD Black Metal Series are guitars that are comparable in build quality to our LTD Deluxe “1000 Series” instruments, but with a dark and menacing design theme of all-black finish, components, and hardware, a single premium-quality pickup, Macassar ebony fingerboards with no inlays and glow-in-the-dark side markers, and even a newly-designed black metal LTD logo on the headstock. With the Viper-7B Black Metal, you get a seven-string baritone guitar that’s ready for your darkest performances. It offers the offset double-cutaway design of the ESP Viper, with set-thru construction at 27” Baritone scale, a direct-mount Seymour Duncan “Blackened” Black Winter pickup controlled by a single volume knob, and LTD locking tuners.

    Got mine week ago. It became my favourite 7-string guitar EVER. A killer guitar.

        I bought one of these bad boys a few months ago and it's by far my favorite guitar. The black winter humbucker is amazing for high gain black metal tones and the coil splitting knob makes for beautiful crisp clean tones. The neck is also very comfortable. The only complaint is neckdive but that's basically inevitable with the an sg style guitar that's 7 string but once you get used to it, it's not bad at all. Overall, an amazing guitar.

            A 6 string version would be wonderful.

                This guitar is very aggressive!!!

                Since this’s not the expensive series, but still it’s good for lots of genres!!!

                The only thing I wished for this VIPER is to have NEW 2021 version:

                8 string, Hipshot bridge, Bare Knuckle Warpig pickup!!!

                    Is there a better position for the strap button other than behind the upper cutout? The neck is very top heavy and drops when hands-free.

                        Yeah! Change the needle that is on the bottom of the body more towards to the upper part of the body, then the body weight will drop!!!

                        You’re welcome!!!
