Other than that little detail, I'm very impressed by the 2011 line. The vipers really caught my eye.

 

[BucketheadRules]

Some pretty nice shit, like the DevilDriver sigs also. Especially the blue Eclipse (is that Jeff Kendrick's one?)

ESP didn't do much this year, but I think what they released is cool.

The M-10 has the potential to become the new modders guitar of choice!

Indeed. I am now GAS-ing for an M-10. Hopefully the neck doesn't suffer from "entry level guitar shitty neck syndrome" like the Bronze B.C. Rich guitars do. Take a lesson from Jackson, people. Give all of your guitars awesome necks.
I'd love a bare-bones hardtail guitar with one bridge pickup in the typical 80's shredder fashion so I could mod. X2N, nicer tuners, possibly a better bridge, and a solid orange finish.

You know, I've never liked SGs or Vipers, but that 7string Viper is just straight up sexy.

bring back the black hardware

I hot rodded my flat black one and I absolutely love it. It's a $100 guitar waiting for some lipstick and a nice dress.

Agreed. That "black chrome" or "black nickel" looks almost as bad as the fake wood paneling on 80's station wagons

I happen to love the abalone on my Viper Deluxe...it makes it look like its glowing haha

There are only a few guitars that i think it looks good on, and mines one of them.

Mine too. Most of the abalone ESP puts on guitars looks incredibly tacky, but on my MH-1000 NT (Desert Sunburst) it looks awesome.

Doesn't have an OFR does it?

Nope, they're Original Floyd Rose 1000 Series bridges.

 

[Wookieslayer]

They need moar baritone 7's (with reverse headstocks )

Call me crazy, but...

DO WANT.

So do I - not alot of companies sell replica strats with floyds that are decent.

I just hate relic'd guitars and 22 frets. Other than that, pure win.

 

[BucketheadRules]

Nah, I quite like that.

Not overly keen on the Floyd but it's still nice.

They need to do a Lake Placid Blue one with no Floyd though.

They do a 3-tone sunburst one with a vintage trem, if that helps.

I'm looking forward to the H-1007 VERY much, but I'm getting tired of the "every 7 string we put out is black" shit, i want a WHITE H-1007

I realize they have various dark colors for 7's in the PAST, before i get trolled

 

[NeglectedField]

Good going with the passive-equipped but not vintage'd up Viper.
