HORIZON-II USA

One of ESP’s most beautiful guitar shapes, the elegant archtop design of the Horizon-II USA will turn heads, but make no mistake: this guitar is ready for your most brutal riffs and speedy, fluid lead lines. Crafted by our acclaimed luthiers in Southern California, the Horizon-II USA is a premium quality guitar designed for serious players. Built at 25.5” scale with set-thru construction for smooth access to the highest frets at 25.5” scale, it pairs a carved-topped mahogany body with a three-piece, thin u-shaped maple neck. Other design features include an ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo Jescar stainless steel frets and abalone offset block inlays.
We select only the finest components with ESP USA guitar models, so the Horizon-II USA features Gotoh Magnum Lock tuners, a TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru-body design for excellent sustain and resonance, Dunlop Straplok buttons, and a graphite nut. You can then personalize your Horizon-II USA with your choices in finishes, top woods (sold color, flamed maple, or quilted maple), pickups, and hardware.
The Horizon-II USA includes a custom ESP USA form-fitting hardshell case, and an official Certificate of Authenticity from ESP.
