ESP LAWXJ7BETOGBLKS Alex Wade XJ Signature 7-string Baritone Electric Guitar (Black Satin)Since Whitechapels 2006 inception and 2007 debut record, The Somatic Defilement, rhythm guitarist Alex Wade has consistently supplied deathcore delights, and this signature ESP LTD Alex Wade XJ refuses to pull any punches. Considering its 27 inch baritone scale, 7 string design, lone bridge mounted humbucker, and unwavering EverTune bridge, our despots of the down tuned and distorted agree that this axe is the bare knuckle brawler theyve been seeking.

Since Whitechapel’s 2006 inception and 2007 debut record, The Somatic Defilement, rhythm guitarist Alex Wade has consistently supplied deathcore delights, and this signature ESP LTD Alex Wade XJ refuses to pull any punches. Considering its 27-inch baritone scale, 7-string design, lone bridge-mounted humbucker, and unwavering EverTune bridge, our despots of the down-tuned and distorted agree that this axe is the bare-knuckle brawler they’ve been seeking. Maple, swamp ash, walnut, padauk, and Macassar ebony comprise the guitar’s pentacle of foundational forces, while its malleable musicality is wielded through the kaleidoscopic capabilities of the DiMarzio D-Activator 7 humbucker. A 5-piece neck, carved for speed and power, sports a wide-radius fretboard that makes painless work of traversing the instrument’s 24 frets, while the eye-catching bridge and locking tuners grant your sounds “Eternal Refuge” in stable tuning. What more can the Whitechapel-worthy wonder do for your sound? Play one for yourself to see what you discover!

Five degrees of foundational firepower

Armed with five varieties of foundational tonewoods, the ESP LTD Alex Wade XJ is poised for prismatic 7-string power. Its roots comprise a maple-topped swamp ash body, which is prized for use with electric guitars, thanks to its laser-focused voicing that emphasizes fundamentals. A 5-piece bolt-on neck weaves maple’s full-spectrum brightness and note-separating warmth, walnut’s smoldering rosewood-like presence and ringing character, and padauk’s deep, punchy, overtone-rich palette. Finally, a Macassar ebony fretboard supplies enduring sustain, eminent presence, and crystalline brilliance. Taken together, you’re gifted an aural architrave of no-holds-barred brutality that supports the gamut of sonic possibilities waiting to be unearthed by this signature axe’s 7-string array and 27-inch baritone scale.

DiMarzio drives your deathcore deliverance

The natural aural complexity of the LTD Alex Wade XJ’s tonewood assemblage is no simple sound to wield, and the baritone scale makes the challenge of bringing this immense range to life that much more daunting. Fortunately, ESP and Alex knew who could answer the call of this instrument’s death metal magic: DiMarzio. As the guitar’s sole pickup, the bridge-mounted D-Activator 7 gives you the best of active and passive designs, sans the battery. Detailed responsiveness and fast attack are complemented by immense headroom with shimmering overtones and blooming harmonics that remain tight and punchy yet pliable and reactive on every string. Plus, the push-pull Volume knob gives you even further tone-chasing opportunities. Where will you start?

Primed for tour-grade performance

Honing the ESP LTD Alex Wade XJ’s playability was essential to crafting an instrument that could endure the reality of the road-warrior lifestyle and pummeling performances. A Thin-U, satin-finished neck serves up speed and power in spades; it’s perfect for multiple play styles but thrives with Alex’s take on raucous riffage and brutal breakdowns. Up top, the fretboard’s 15.75-inch scale deftly accommodates the 7-string spread, complementing the accessibility of the offset’s elegant cutaways and comfort-minded contouring, for complete control of its 24 stainless steel frets. Opting for a 5-piece neck was an intentional decision to soup up this tour-grade tone machine, increasing the guitar’s musicality and dimensional stability, meaning maximized resistance to twisting, warping, and the elements. With LTD locking tuners and an EverTune F7 bridge, the LTD Alex Wade XJ is armed to excel in virtually any tuning configuration your sound can handle.

Polarity
Color: 6500K White, Size: 1Roll x 16.4ft, Color: 6500K White, Size: 1Roll x 16.4ft
I've been looking into various kits and components but this one seemed to fit my needs perfectly - all components included and the flexibility to cut strips (up to 6) to the lengths I needed. Its also very thin and needs no other mounting hardware, channels, diffusers, screws, etc. No instructions - but everything only fits together one way except which end of the LED strip to connect to (polarity). For my reel, it was towards the center of the reel and not the freed end - which meant I had to cut a piece off and connect the end that was just cut. Insert the cut end into the connect after peeling off a bit of the blue tape. You can also peel off a little bit of the white tape beneath that to expose the copper contacts - but the connector contacts can pierce that layer if you don't want to peel off the white layer also. (Don't peel it all off, just enough to to fit into the connector.) Insert the end, press down the hinged part until it clicks or is otherwise all the way clamped - don't need tools, just your fingers squeezing it is enough. Test the assembly by plugging it into the power supply. You can also connect the remote - a blue LED on the power supply tells you whether its on or off. Once I figured out which end to connect to, everything was quite straightforward. I installed my 6 strips in my small pantry - one for each shelf - and routed all the wires to one side, mostly hidden. I mounted the remote on the pantry door - it can sense through the door - which is not very thick - as well as just tapping it once the door is open. The remote can be touchless - just wave your hand near it - but it seems to also sense tapping from some objects. Holding down on the remote activates dimming - it will cycle through brightness and stop when you release. Other than that, its as simple as I had hoped and took me about an hour to install (I expect my next install will be 30 mins). I am planning to order more kits for other closets, kitchen, etc.

UPDATED: Replacement works great
Color: 3000K Warm, Size: 1Roll x 16.4ft
FINAL UPDATE: Seller shipped new power unit and it works great now. The lights are really great and super easy to cut to size and use. UPDATE 1: Seller got in touch and is sending replacement power unit. Will update again once it arrives. I do really like the look of these and they did wonders for a dark park of my closet that has built-ins. ORIGINAL: Lights stopped working after about 6 weeks (beyond the 30 day return policy). Seems like the control unit died. Haven’t found any feasible way to contact seller or manufacturer. Will update review if anything changes.

Light it up!
Color: 3000K Warm, Size: 2Roll x 16.4ft, Color: 3000K Warm, Size: 2Roll x 16.4ft
I am very happy with these. They are easy to use. The only reason I am not giving a five star review is because the instructions and assembly weren’t the easiest. At first we could not get them to work. After looking through the reviews, one man told us that the -\+ were backwards and we tried what he suggested and they worked. I do suggest that because there are two light reels there should be two connecter boxes as well. We had to purchase two packages. Overall, We are satisfied with our purchase.

Quality just isn’t there
Color: 3000K Warm, Size: 2Roll x 16.4ft
Was very excited to receive this product because I had difficulty lighting op these LED strip lights, this looks like a package that had everything that I needed. First off, the strip lights themselves are very thin with wise and would look funny on my project, the adhesive backing did not stick at all once removed The touch sensor works great for about 10 minutes and then completely died, overall not impressed with the quality of this product, sending back

Excellent Cabinet Lights!
Color: 3000K Warm, Size: 1Roll x 16.4ft
Great cabinet lights. Easy to install and connect. The touch less control is handy and works well to dim and turn the lights on and off. Been using them for half a year now. No complaints.
