The ESP Guitar Company

ESP ALL ACCESS COMMUNITY MEMBER SPOTLIGHT! We've featured All Access member Tim Barnard a couple of times before, because... this dude rips! Back in 2020, we got to know Tim when he was the top runner-up in our "Lockdown Rockdown" contest, and it's easy to see why. Using his LTD Deluxe M-1007 on an alternate version of the solo from his band Absurd Condition's song "Puppets the the Regime", Tim takes you on a ride of shred technique that ranges from well-planned arpeggios to wide and open vibrato to tapping and more. The M-1007 is a great guitar for those like Tim who need a high-performance guitar to match their skillful playing.  It’s a neck-thru-body design with an extra-thin U-shaped 3-piece maple neck and Macassar ebony fingerboard. For a little extra speed and comfort, it has a natural satin finish on the back of the neck. You can check out more of Tim, who offers lessons and session work, at his official site. 

If you're doing cool music with your ESP, ESP E-II, or LTD guitar or bass, upload a video to the ESP site and we might select you as the next ESP All Access Community Member to feature on our front page where thousands of other players can check you out! Get the details here.
