Unboxing the ESP Hatsune Miku Signature Electric Guitar!

[@wireless5168]

props to pete for being able to jam with a straight face with that pedal

[@GreatOne0815]

Haha, I thought the guitar will always sound like the pedal. :D

[@randysutton2120]

I expected something kind of silly, but this actually looks very cool.

[@BRAG450]

Same.

[@nickgoogle4525]

It looks silly and sounds so as well! 😲

[@mikeg.9238]

Looks like a cross between a Firebird and an Iceman!

[@naetharu]

Totally agree! £9K is a little beyond my price range sadly. But I love the looks. If it was a sane price I'd go for a guitar that looks like that.

[@anonymous2858]

Its your inner weaboo

[@nesfan8]

As a huge vocaloid fan as well as ESP enjoyer, this would be my dream guitar. Too bad im broke as always

[@majunior1944]

You and me both, bud! May our fortunes be bountiful in the future.

[@ottoto2015]

Indeed I have been loving all this collab guitar just like the last time Eva fender but im broke

[@andesneko]

We're all broke when facing a 7k USD guitar.

[@wrestlnrulz]

@@andesneko mate, it's almost $12k USD before tax. $7k is already eye watering but $12k is downright painful!

That jam at the end is by far the most musical I've ever heard that pedal! Well done sir! 😎

[@elliottclark1340]

We need the Hatsune Miku amp stack 🤣

[@teknomanning]

I use mine in place of a wah

[@robertlewis5439]

Props for making the Miku pedal sound musical and not just losing your &^%$ laughing.

[@Ch4osWe4veR]

This is sooo cool, I like that instead of just having a decal of Miku slapped on it somewhere (other than the case which I think is fine), it has elements inspired by her design. It is really clean and tasteful and might just look to a casual observer to be some kind of racing inspired thing with the "01" numbers and stripes on the back of the neck, but to a Vocaloid/Hatsune Miku fan, it would definitely be one of those "if you know, you know" kinds of things. I like that subtle kind of design for "anime"/Japanese pop culture merchandise, as it's still considered a little weird where I live, like a shirt with a green and black checker pattern might just look like that to someone not in the know, but someone who does know would probably instantly think of Kamado Tanjiro from Demon Slayer for example.

[@Abzuooo]

Yeah man as a weeb, I love app these new low key anime designs that don’t look weird and cringy. Like have you seen the Jujutsu Kaisen merch, it’s super clean.

[@htsunmiku]

Yep. As both of you are saying. I love anime merch that actually useable and won't embarrass you. Like it looks good to most people but If you're in the know you know exactly what it's merch for.

[@piroxide]

So awesome to see/hear this online. The "racing stripes" on the neck are the tabs on her necktie. The ESP shop in Ochanomizu had the poster for this last year but I never thought I'd see one. Props for the Miku Stomp!

[@demonoising]

It's the first time I see someone making actual music with the Miku pedal. And that guitar is gorgeous.

[@limpneckmike]

Pete: I’m not gonna give away what it is yet Title: Unboxing the ESP Hatsune Miku Signature Guitar

[@Burnt_Gerbil]

For the price, I was expecting the Miku pedal to built into the guitar. You can’t have one without the other. Just saying.

[@mikeg.9238]

Right , at 9g's!! But that pedal sounds atrocious!

[@caprise-music6722]

You actually made the miku pedal sound good in the outro Jam. Truly a maestro!

[@ROLEPLAYA64]

I love the body/headstock shape! I'd be VERY tempted by an "ordinary" version of that

[@kobalt_ren01]

I think there are regular versions of that model, it's the Stream. I don't know if guitars are that common, but I've seen a few basses with the shape.

[@Nikita13337]

There’s only 39 of these because in japanese 3 is “mi” and 9 is “ku”. 39 = Miku

[@Ndlanding]

In Japanose, 40 is "fo" and 9 is "ku", so 49.

That blue is very nice. I also like the pink accent. Great looking guitar indeed! That Hatsune Miku effect pedal and The Dooo shouting in the sound hole of his ukulele are two things that will never get old... 😂

[@garyburginjr1366]

I like that this guitar just looks DIFFERENT! that's a nice change to see in the larger manufacturers!

[@jlore6344]

Agree with others, I really did not expect to like this. But this is a pretty cool guitar. Also, this is the first time I have ever heard that Miku pedal used where it actually sounded like a song. Well done to Pete!!! He really can play anything and make it sound good.

[@JKM395]

That Miku pedal NEVER gets old. If there was any way I could afford one, I would have it. It would entertain me forever.

[@andrewpappas9311]

And I thought the Korg Miku was the weirdest piece of gear I've ever seen, the body admittedly looks really cool and sounds good through the amp

[@fruitykrueger]

Damn, never thought that I'd see Andertons and Miku together.

[@wondersharris5593]

The blue outline design perfectly portrays Miku's stylish hair, love it

Love the Danish Pete unboxing videos! Can't have enough of them. :)

[@robinmorris5416]

They should make that shape a production model so us peasants could get one. I'd buy it on the shape, and hardware alone. Amazing. An artist model made for a cartoon girl that had previously only had a hilarious pedal, and we cant afford it. Heck man we have $5 a gallon gas now, & less doritos in our chip bags, times are hard man!

[@isaacbenrubi9613]

[@dylanmcgarry1221]

I love that ESP was the one to make this Never change you wonderful meticulous Japanese mad lads ❤ - ESP simp since I learned to play on one in 2005

[@digitalcarnage441]

I'm a huge Vocaloid fan and I wanna make my own Vocaloid songs but I'm just now learning to play the guitar. I really want this guitar and the acoustic version but I don't feel like I deserve to own it until after I get decent with the one I currently own. I guess this'll serve as motivation to practice everyday lol cause I really, really want it and I don't care how much I have to spend to get it

[@ajofadams]

I don’t care about the guitar, but as soon as I saw it, my first thought was somebody has to play it through the miku pedal…thank you DP! A £9k guitar through possibly the most aurally offensive pedal ever made. Love it 😂

[@400_billion_suns]

That's actually a really nice looking guitar. I dig it.

[@adamcogan211]

Oh god, I was drunk one night 4 years ago, fell asleep watching the korg miku video laughing my ass off. When I had woken up, I woke up surprised that I had ordered one through andertons that night. 😂 I still don’t know if I regret it or not😂😂Thankfully I don’t have the money in my account for this.

Always good too see some different takes on guitar builds and tech .

[@andreaspernadi1121]

Hatsune Miku!! Gosh, ESP keep killing it with those collab

[@magicmandan9294]

im picturing the scene in the boardroom when they were designing this guitar. i can see all the well-dressed japanese executives sat around the table, and Hatsune Miku is projected on the wall, speaking to the executives and going, "hmm, yes, locking tuners, good idea!"

[@unitednihilists]

At 11:59 you can hear the Captain in his office laughing hysterically.

[@stewvlogs5084]

The price is £8,999. Very nice. Enjoyed the video. Be good if the Korg pedal was in the case as well. Need a left handed one now.

[@BassRacerx]

if you like the shape the sell it as the NERGAL ns-6 with fishman pickups. its all black and has a pickguard and a stoptail. other than that looks like you would have to go custom shop or try and import a japanese model

I'm totally not a fan of anime but damn that's one of the most beautiful guitars I've ever seen

[@stuartavis8165]

the guitar looks really awesome (case is pretty sweet too) but for nearly £9K the Miku sounds ought to have been built-in... otherwise, what's the point?

[@austindaniels357]

You don’t know how badly I wish ESP made Stream production models. Even as a Miku fan I wouldn’t drop that much money on a guitar even if I had the money, but I’d jump all over a E-II Stream without the Miku branding but a similar color. It’s such a cool take on the Firebird vibe

[@stephanematis]

Stream basses are about the best you can do ... there are some of the base models still floating around.

[@austindaniels357]

The basses are def better than nothing. I don’t have much experience playing ESPs basses but the few stream basses I’ve seen look just as cool as the guitars. I really should give one a spin if I ever see em in a shop…

"I'm the blues guy." What a legend!

[@justincaban4318]

[@matt_hayward]

Not an anime fan but a huge ESP fan. They are overlooked as hyper metalhead guitars only and always the bridesmaid to American brands. Wake up people they're brilliant!

[@zacharykim295]

Lost it at 12:38 😂😂 The guitar looks great!

[@transmitcoum2857]

Interesting that they'd even bother releasing this in the West. I think the Miku character is a really cute and great design and the colour palette is ALWAYS great. Those 3 or 4 colours just go perfectly together. So the guitar looks amazing and Pete makes it sound brilliant ( remember though, Pete makes everything sound brilliant ) but its 2022 and I didn't think Miku was even still a thing, especially in the UK :) Amazed that one of them is getting a release over here. 39 as far as I can recall is a Miku thing and to do with the character's lore, but I'm not sure what it is exactly. So a genuinely beautiful guitar, but at nearly £10,000 I am not sure how its relevant enough to justify that price. I suppose this is just an ad for millionaires really, whilst the rest of us are only allowed to look on and remain jealous, whilst a 56 year old CEO hangs it on a wall and never actually plays it. Oh well.

[@johnwelch557]

Well, at least Pete's outro was super entertaining! I wouldn't pay the tax on this thing for it. Not a bad guitar, or build/shape. Just a guitar however. Thanks Pete!!

[@lecorsaire2283]

Cool guitar. Not for me, but I appreciate everything that comes out of ESP’s custom shop.

[@themcnabinator]

ESP Missed an open goal there! Surely should have integrated the miku chip into the guitar w an on/off toggle or whammy or something

[@4stringz.]

It’s the guitar version of the ESP Stream bass. very cool

[@stephanematis]

[@GRBAquatics]

Looks and Sounds Awesome. That sure is one original Pedal.

[@ptrisonic]

You need a bloke with a Clapperboard, Pete. Pete. I remember that guitar. I'm only slightly embarrassed that I told you I liked it. It actually looks cool. I'm looking forward to you wringing out from it some serious tones. Besides it's always good to see a new shape. P

Ah well at least I have the pedal, its a beautiful guitar but nothing is £9.000 beautiful, 39 guitars rare I get, but now I want a £400-600 model in that shape with some colour variations to differ from the elite one, they would sell no problem.

[@calaverx11]

They actually made three versions, one of them is acoustic, but they're only available in Japan so you'd have to import them.
