ESP E-II Viper Baritone Electric Guitar in Charcoal Metallic Satin B-Stock

The E-II Viper Baritone delivers the extended low-end authority of a 27" scale in a supremely comfortable platform. The neck-through construction and thin U contour make rapid position work effortless across the full 24-fret span, while the Charcoal Metallic Satin finish presents a professional, understated aesthetic that resists fingerprints and plays beautifully in any light.

Playability & Construction

This is a neck-through design built around a mahogany body with 3-piece maple neck and ebony fingerboard—a configuration that delivers exceptional sustain and tonal coherence. The 27" scale length accommodates lower tunings with genuine tension and articulation, while the 24 XJ frets with dot inlays and binding ensure smooth, confident playability across the entire range.

Tone & Electronics

EMG 60 (neck) and EMG 81 (bridge) active pickups provide the aggression and clarity essential for modern heavy music and extended-range work. The Gotoh TOM bridge and tailpiece coupling locks in rock-solid tuning stability, and the Gotoh locking tuners eliminate drift during performance or aggressive bends.
