Prepare to elevate your playing to soaring new heights with the ESP USA Horizon II electric guitar. Handcrafted at ESP's renowned California facility, the Horizon II represents the pinnacle of premium guitar construction and tone. Its exceptional set-thru neck design delivers the sustain and resonance every shredder craves, while a wealth of premium appointments ensure uncompromising performance in the studio or on the biggest stages.

Uncompromising Craftsmanship From ESP's Master Builders

From the moment you lay eyes on the Horizon II, its meticulous attention to detail is evident. Built by ESP's elite team of luthiers in California, this guitar adheres to the brand's strictest standards of quality. The Horizon II starts with a resonant mahogany body paired with a set-thru three-piece maple neck for unparalleled sustain. You can opt for a premium figured-wood top like flamed maple, quilted maple or exotic koa to make your guitar a true masterpiece.

Playability and Tone That Redefine the Meaning of "Fast Neck"

Shredders know that speed and precision start with the neck. That's why ESP designed the Horizon II with a Thin U-shaped maple neck profile that plays like a dream. Its sleek, snappy response makes even the most blistering licks feel utterly effortless. Complementing this player-friendly design are 24 extra-jumbo Jescar stainless steel frets that facilitate wide bends without fretting out. Choose between an ebony or maple fingerboard with pearlescent offset block inlays for a refined aesthetic.

Unleash Your Signature Tone With Elite Pickups

To capture the searing lead tones and chunky rhythms you crave, the Horizon II is loaded with your choice of elite Seymour Duncan or EMG pickups. These premium humbuckers deliver everything from molten high-gain distortion to glassy cleans with remarkable depth and articulation. Combined with the exceptional resonance of the set-thru design, the Horizon II's pickups help you sculpt a tone that cuts through any mix with unrelenting authority.

Built for a Lifetime of Inspiration

With its rock-solid construction and meticulous craftsmanship, the ESP USA Horizon II is built to accompany you on your creative journey for years to come. Chrome hardware includes Sperzel Trim-Lok tuners and Schaller strap locks for bulletproof tuning stability. A premium ESP hardshell case is also included, providing flawless protection during transit.
