ESP E-II ALEXI RIPPED [Alexi Laiho Model] Purple Fade Satin w/Ripped Pinstripes
At the end of 2020, we received the news that Alexi Laijo had passed away. For a year before he passed away, we were working with Alexi on adding new models to the Signature series.
Two new models were born: the ``RIPPED'', which was born from the idea of Finland's MUSAMAAILMA staff who have been supporting Alexi for many years, and adopted the first neck pickup, and the ``HEXED'', which was born from an idea from ESP USA.
After it was completed, he immediately started using it in his band Bodom After Midnight's recordings and live performances.
ALEXI RIPPED is the first style guitar to add a pickup to the neck side, while following the flow of previous signature models. The body is an offset V-shape, with a neck-through structure where the hard maple neck material runs through the center of the body to the end of the body, and the body is made of alder. The fingerboard is made of ebony and has an inlay that resembles a distinctive saw blade. The 20th to 24th frets are scalloped to ensure smooth bending and vibrato on the high frets.
The pickups are EMG HZ-FH2 in the bridge position and EMG HZ-S2 in the neck position. It also has a built-in ESP MM-04 preamplifier that can boost up to +18dB. The top of the body is purple faded satin, but the back and sides are black satin.
E-II version of ESP ALEXI RIPPED is also available!
Other than the frets, it faithfully inherits the specifications of ESP ALEXI RIPPED.
