ID this guitar

Ok, so I've tried to figure out what guitar it is that Ryan from Misery Signals plays in the failsafe video and I can't for the life of me find out what it is. I've had some ideas but none of them panned out. I don't really need to know, I'm just curious and it's starting to bug the heck out of me. Maybe someone else knows what it is.

The video:

He's the guitarist on the right, the one not playing an esp viper.

They both look like LTD's. Not exactly the same, but something like this:

Hey thanks, that pic looks a lot like it. What model is that?

Edit: looked through the site and see it's the h-250.

Thanks for the pic.

I like the thick white beavals (spelling is way off, but you know what i mean) on the one guy's guitar. Pretty metal looking...i have the sound turned off, so i don't really know how it sounds.

The only thing that is white on that guitar is the neck binding. The body binding is natural, so I think perhaps you mean the reflected highlights showing up on the carved body top?

The carved top is what makes the difference between ESP/LTD's H (Horizon) series and the M series, which is just a standard flat top.

Actually on the guy's guitar, I believe the binding is abalone.

It's probably an ltd/esp, deathmaster is right, it has a carved top.

Esp had this on the Horizon and stole the bodyshape from Kramer who started with the stagemaster. My own guitar is custom made based on a Kramer Stagemaster, which are imho superior to the ESP horizon but very rare.

Back to the guitar in the vid, if it's an ltd it must be a deluxe version, judging by the inlay and purfling. They're not white but abalone. I don't think it's an LTD because there's no model in the lineup with the specifik ESP headstock.

They do have the LTD H deluxe which is very similair. I think this is an ESP though..
