The ESP LTD Arrow-1000 electric guitar delivers high-performance playability with a standout offset V-shaped body. Its neck-through 25.5" scale design offers stability and sustain, with a thin U-shaped maple neck and compound radius Macassar ebony fingerboard for silky smooth playing comfort. The Arrow-1000's figured quilted maple top and mahogany body look fantastic in an eye-catching Dark Brown Sunburst Satin finish, with an exotic reverse headstock to match. With the Arrow-1000, you get the best of both worlds tonally with its set of Fishman Fluence humbucker pickups, providing two distinct voices per pickup. Switch between vintage organic crunch and modern high-output bite with the bridge pickup, while the neck pickup transitions from a warm, round tone to an articulate humbucker fluidity.

Sculpted Mahogany Body Resonates with Sustain

The Arrow-1000's contoured mahogany body with figured maple top isn't just unique in its offset V shape - it's built for resonant tone and singing sustain. Neck-through construction enhances the transfer of vibration up through the neck, aided by the guitar's chambered body design that allows the mahogany to freely resonate. Combined with the Arrow-1000's 25.5" scale length, you get rich, blooming tone and sustain for days from every ringing note and chord. The deep double cutaway heel provides unfettered access to even the highest frets.

Compound-Radius Fingerboard Adds Playing Ease

Shredding up and down the ESP Arrow-1000's Macassar ebony fingerboard is smooth sailing thanks to its compound radius design. With a gentler curve towards the nut and a flatter radius moving up the neck, it fits your hand's natural contours for ease of playability across all 24 stainless steel jumbo frets. The thin, contoured U-shaped maple neck further enhances the Arrow-1000's ergonomic feel. Whether you're ripping out speedy solos or digging into crunchy power chords, this guitar keeps you playing in comfort.

Fishman Fluence Pickups Offer Two Voicings Per Pickup

The Arrow-1000 gives you incredible tonal flexibility with its set of Fishman Fluence humbucker pickups, providing two distinct voicings for each pickup selected with a push/pull switch. Go from vintage organic crunch to modern high-output growl with the bridge pickup, while the neck pickup switches from warm, round tone to articulate humbucker fluidity. With four instantly accessible tones, you can shape your sound to suit any genre, from rock and metal to blues and jazz. The Fluence pickups also deliver exceptional clarity and dynamic response.

Built for Rock-Solid Stability

With its quality components like the Floyd Rose tremolo bridge and Grover tuners, the ESP LTD Arrow-1000 gives you the rock-solid stability coveted by professional guitarists who rely on their instrument. The Floyd Rose bridge's fine tuners and locking nut clamp down on the strings, allowing for extreme changes in pitch without losing tuning precision. Combined with the Grover tuners, you get incredible tuning stability and accuracy. Unleash screaming dives, flutters and wails and the Arrow-1000 stays in tune through it all.
