ESP
Description

The ESP LTD Arrow-400 electric guitar delivers the sharp-edged look and high-performance feel the Arrow shape is known for, built for players who want aggressive tone and confident playability without stepping into full custom territory. Designed around a 25.5" scale length, the Arrow-400 pairs a mahogany body with a fast extra-thin U-shaped three-piece maple neck, creating a platform that feels solid, responsive and ready for high-gain styles. With its angular offset design and professional-grade components, this electric guitar is built to perform on stage and in the studio.

EMG 81 and 85 Pickups Built for High-Gain Precision

The Arrow-400 is loaded with a proven EMG active pickup set, featuring an EMG 81 in the bridge and an EMG 85 in the neck position. The EMG 81 delivers tight low end, sharp attack and focused clarity that excels in heavy rhythm playing and cutting lead tones. The EMG 85 adds a warmer fuller voice in the neck position, making it well suited for fluid solos and expressive clean passages. Together, they form a versatile high-output pairing that stays articulate under extreme gain.

Floyd Rose Special Tremolo for Expressive Control

A Floyd Rose Special double-locking tremolo bridge gives the Arrow-400 the stability needed for aggressive pitch work. Dive bombs, squeals and wide vibrato techniques remain controlled and in tune thanks to the locking nut and bridge system. This setup allows players to push their technique without worrying about tuning drift or intonation issues during demanding performances.

Fast Neck and Fingerboard for Technical Playing

The extra-thin U-shaped three-piece maple neck is designed for speed and accuracy, offering a comfortable feel for fast runs and wide stretches. A rosewood fingerboard carries 24 extra-jumbo frets, providing a smooth surface for precise bends and articulate phrasing across the entire neck. Black binding along the neck and headstock adds a clean focused visual detail while reinforcing the guitar’s performance-driven design.

Mahogany Body and Road-Ready Hardware

The mahogany body contributes warmth, sustain and a solid low-mid response that balances the guitar’s aggressive electronics. Grover tuners provide reliable tuning stability, while the overall construction is built to handle regular rehearsals, recording sessions and live use. Every component on the Arrow-400 is chosen for durability and consistency under high-energy playing conditions.

A Performance-Focused ESP LTD Electric Guitar

The ESP LTD Arrow-400 electric guitar is built for players who want bold design paired with dependable professional features. From its fast neck and EMG pickups to its Floyd Rose tremolo and solid mahogany construction, the Arrow-400 delivers the control and power needed for modern metal and hard rock. It’s an electric guitar that looks aggressive, feels fast and performs with confidence wherever you plug in.
