George lynch was one of the best all around players in the 80s. His riffs & rhythms were so melodic yet powerful and dirty it was always a joy to listen to him. I loved the way he flowed from rhythm to lick to lead and back. I wish he would write songs like he used to.

George was always a humble and nice guy.

Seems like a top bloke, humble, talented, still young and excited about gear!

George Lynch representou demais, Galo Metal na veia!

Such a humble guy,George is the reason and evh is also the reason I grabbed a guitar

Notice Lynch doesn't let go of that guitar haha. You know they gave it to him, and that makes me.....really jealous. Great guitars and a Great Musician.

5:43 ACE FREHLEY shirt, very cool. Especially today, it's the 40th anniversary of the Destroyer album !!! Man time is moving right along, 40 years !!

So cool to see my hero wearing a t-shirt from my team!

George: 'If I hold it long enough they will think it's mine. Hmmm yes, very good.' haha

First one says "kami" meaning "God" and the second one says "kaze" which means wind. "God wind" refers to the Typhoon that wiped out Kublai Khan's fleet when he attempted to invade Japan from Korea. The "divine wind" that saved the Japanese in the 16th century.

ESP doesn't have any real shredders so they had to go out and buy one. Lol. It took me a minute to get that one.

I literally live a couple of blocks away from the ESP factory.

A maior torcida metal do mundo, viva a Galo Metal! #GaloMetal

Lynch Rulz! Carry on.

And I also have to say that this man is one of the most badass shredders I have ever heard 🎸🤘😎

Enjoyed the tour, Banzai!

Thanks For the tour George loved it some awesome guitars wish I had any one of them. :)

George seems pretty down to earth...

cool shop. nice Ace Frehley t-shirt to the tech.

George is such a cool down to earth guy man. So very cool

George always had the fanciest guitar! Awesome clip.

Seems like George really just loves gear, looks like a kid in a candy store, and seems to be a good dude!

Lynch is one of a kind. Great tone and style

My LTD EC-1000 came with action that was so ow and buzz free I still can't believe it. You can barely see the strings move to the fret but clear with no fret buzz. Excellent guitar and it's the entry level line... Great to see them get set up.

Had a Japanese ESP and loved the neck, some one in Colorado is probably super stoked on acquiring it!

ESP workers are so kind! I have talked with Todd Binder! He’s awesome! That’s why they have a lot of artists, because they’re kind to their artists! #ESPRules

ESP Is awesome I have a Black ESP LTD M-10 & it's an awesome guitar ESP's are great Guitars

I was a 16 year old guitarist in 1988. Dokken was one of the hair bands I never saw live. Always wished I had

7:06 lol the tech had X japan, galneryus, versailles posters

My ESP is also a Viper apple red. All it took was just one time playing it for just a few minutes and I bought it that day

George, my eternal idol, the shirt you rocking is a killer. It's from an organized fans from the Brazilian soccer team that won last year's National Championship, and I'm obviously a fan of theirs. The #CAM on the back and on the skull in front means #ClubeAtleticoMineiro, which is the team's name. Representing.

Lynch rules!!!! I want a tour of that place.

That song on a loop was awesome

George Lynch you are the man

They build guitars for Him. He also builds his own. George is awsome!

My parents made a deal with me back in may and they said if I learn to play guitar good enough they would buy me a Kami-Kazi guitar. In 2 months i was able to play good enough then I annoyed my parents to the point they got me the guitar

i was a student in 89 at guitar masters studied with mike of riot. george was about to have guest teacher . i dig metal, now i am going 40+yrs but my most wow time was meeting ozzy n zakk/bls

I like how he just walks around with that Tele style that he wanted like they're not getting it back anyway.

That same Kami-Kaze set of Kanji was on Dez's headband and I asked him the same thing~ he said "Air God", but most WWII historians translated it "Divine Wind" -reminds me of the early 80's footage of George playing "Air Guitar" with a Kramer Softcase (and bending the headstock for the 'Dive')!

Thanks for Sharing,George.When I moved out to Cali. I was Living in Van Nuys and after I moved back home I come to find out ESP Guitar Company was on Van Owen,Just a couple Blocks from where I was Staying..If I Knew that Now I would Have went their and applied for a JOB,Atleast until I got my music out and Heard,But hey I'm doing that Now in the Studio working to get my music perfected!

Great tour and great job George.

Excellent clip George is pure class act..

George lynch is awesome such a nice guy

You are the man!

He did not let go of that guitar throughout the entire segment...hahaha he must of really liked it!! ESP and MR. SCARY ROCK!!!

Mine is also a viper esp🎸. I fell in love with it the very first time I played it and so I bought and I’ve had it for eleven years. A $675.00 guitar I bought brand new for &200.00 and I was just not about to pass that up 🎸🎸🎸

George Looks Awesome Great shape!!!!!

Lynch has just taught me so FUCKING much

cool video. thanks guys!

You gotta good sense of humor,George,thanks.

i remember seeing dokken back in the day. mr lynch is one bad man on guitar

I've never seen an ESP guitar in person! They seem to be very rare?

I'm sure the guy's setup is excellent but while shipping around the world climates and humidity have a huge role in the way a guitar plays. I had a EVH shipped to me and when it got here it was perfect but over time I had to make adjustments and even knock sharp fret edges off (the neck wood had lost moisture and shrunk).

Give me 10 minutes in that warehouse..........

"Infinite possibilities with the heart of ESP-Guitars! ^t*r^-***RAVEN'S CRY HOLLYWOOD!

Wish I had jumped on a high end ESP when they were in the 2 K range vs the 4 K range now. Inflation is screwing everything up now I get it, but double the price overnight was ridiculous.

I hope they gave him the guitar he was carrying. There is some serious bonding happening to that slab of wire and wood. George, you live the dream while still being a true human being.

Hi George I want to jam with you....pipe deram. I'm a drummer. My leg is cut off. Dang. I knew dug few years ago. Lynch Mob, Kxm and all your other ventures are inspiring, enthusiastically positive and your just a cool dude. (Crying) no leg...no drums...ahhhhhhhh I'm going crazy! Enough about me. You you you....Rock n Roll Mr. Lynch Have an awsome time! Oh man.... yeeeaaaaahhhhh!!!!!!!

How many guitars did ESP sell due to George playing them? I think they may have to give him that tele!

this place is a mile from me..

george just bring out MR BONES..we wanna say hi to him,its been a while

George without makeup? I like that he can laugh at himself. The LTD Kamikaze is definately affordable compared to the ESP. Feels/sounds pretty good :)

I love you guitars I use them exclusively :)

Mr. Lynch, I was a fan of yours until I seen this video. That snide comment you made concerning Capitalism and labor that turned me off big time. I had been listening to your music since I first heard you playing with dokken back in 82 or 83. I served 20 years in the U.S. military. Your guitar playing provided an escape from some shitty times in my military career and I thank you for that. You are very talented guitar player, top shelf in my prior opinion but that's over. I can NOT stand with the demoncRAT/leftist/socialist so this is why I come to a parting of the ways. I gathered up all my dokken and lynch mob cd's and snapped them in half and put them in the recycle toter. I've gotten rid of many movie dvds and music cds out of my collections where political comments have been made by actors & musicians. Even a fool, when he holds his peace, is counted wise: and he that shuts his lips is esteemed a man of understanding. I just don't understand why actors/musicians/etc. won't keep their mouths shut when it comes to politics. Knowing by voicing their political opinions they will alienate 1/2 of their fan base as you have done me. Why kill the goose that lays golden eggs with political views but that is your right to do so as it is the right of all Americans (which I feel is about to change drastically if the demoncRATS get complete control of the government). If I was in the entertainment field I would simply say my political views are my own and let it go at that. socialism would've never allowed you to become a millionaire but Capitalism did. If you feel so bad about the laborers in society then why don't you donate some of your millions to help them out. Put your money where your mouth is. Let them enjoy the fruits of your labor. Thx for the ride through the years! It was fun but the ride is now over and in the past. socialism = "The Kiss of Death." I leave you with this quote: “Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.” - Winston S. Churchill

The Kanji means - divine winds (i.e. Kamakaze)

His shirt is from a brasilian soccer team my team. I wonder where did he get it? Galo.

Great video!

amazing!

Seems like a cool guy.

Anybody knows the song in the background? Tnx for your answer.

Can I buy an Engl through ESP. I have used ESP and LTD's for the last 20 years and I saw Engl listed on the ESP website.

WOW!! Great mix! Loud music! hardly heard George and the camera work was fleeting as it passed all of the guitars so no one got a good look at those either. Good stuff!

cool

Lynch is why I went ESP GUITAR 2x

i tryed one once it seemed very good but after a close call i got a jackson alltho very good the esp had better hardware it seemed

What's the song in the background?

holy shit theres finally a ltd version of the kamikaze?!?!?!?

When it comes to price, ESP is the Gibson of hard rock guitars. Insane prices. The LTD Kamikaze is has been discontinued for several years. Makes no sense to me. They sell.

if i i there can they sell guitars in there headquarters?

What song is this?

U didn't know till 27 years! Cool! 😂

i have an LTD guitar that is the best guitar ive ever had.. or played.... i love it...

George did you get to keep that Tele!!!!! I bet you did!

Lynch is da bomb!! What is the name of that song in the background??

Did he left with the guitar righ at the end...slick move Black ninja.. Hahaaa

a7x ? 1:27

Nice T-Shirt 🖤🤘 GALO 🐔

1:56 is that a dean rc7 on the wall, liek its red lol

I know what he speaks of about guitars back in the 70's and 80's. If the guitar was playable and sounded great it cost way out of your price range and was dipping into college funds. I was first given to me a piece of crap old 1" thick body HORRIBLE guitar! I hated it and I lived so far from a music shop in Las Vegas that if I broke more than a string a month on that old string breaker. I had to play with what string I had left for that month. Yes Las Vegas was not like it now. Vesley's music was far down town. I had to build me a guitar I spent years on learning how to play. It actually looked horrible but it played so fucking well! I wish I still had that "Thrasher" guitar that I called it. I only have a picture of it now sitting next to me sleeping. Damn George thanks for taking me back 35 years. But thanks for also helping bring guitars to what they are today.

😂😂@ “hi, my name is George Lynch” in Kanji

George plays what l do ..ESP AND RANDALL

I hope the GL-500T could be re-produced. I want a new sunburst tiger LTD hanging on my wall. I already have the GL-200MT.

He reminds me abit on Danzig, i dont know why :/

#GaloMetal

“Best man at all 4 of my weddings…”

Kirk Hammet has a signature model because of his popularity, nothing more. And I'm a huge Metallica fan.

Why esp have avenged sevenfold board? Schecter know this?

Has anyone played or owned any of the high end ESPs? How does ESP compete with Guitars in the same price range? Does anyone have an opinion on the ESP Kirk Hammett model(s).?

Lol, he couldn’t put that Telecaster down since the beginning.
