Vans Warped Tour 2016

Going back to its start in 1995, the Vans Warped Tour has presented a showcase for ESP players in a wide variety of musical genres. Since then, it’s become the largest and longest-running traveling music fest in the US, and remains a great chance to check out ESP players.

The 2016 Warped Tour runs between June 24 and August 13 in cities across the USA, and includes more bands featuring ESP players than ever before, with over 30 ESP guitar and bass players in 16 bands (and those are just the ones we’re aware of). Check out the list below to get more information on these musicians who have chosen ESP, along with the specific guitars and basses they play.
