Description

Available as a Guitar Center Exclusive, the ESP M-II HT electric guitar combines high-performance playability, premium hardware and two exclusive finishes—Pyromancer and Psychedelic Sparkle. Crafted by the expert luthiers at ESP USA in Southern California, this modern double-cutaway pairs a solid mahogany body with a one-piece maple neck for exceptional resonance, stability and speed. Its 25.5" scale length, ebony fingerboard, 24 extra-jumbo Jescar stainless steel frets and Fishman Fluence Modern pickup set provide the precision, versatility and output demanded by today's players. Paired with a Hipshot fixed bridge, Gotoh locking tuners and a bone nut, the ESP M-II HT is built to deliver dependable tuning stability and professional-level performance across a wide range of musical styles.

Built for Speed and Modern Playability

The foundation of the M-II HT starts with a solid mahogany body and a one-piece maple neck shaped to an Extra Thin U profile. Its sturdy bolt-on construction contributes snap, articulation and long-term serviceability while maintaining the fast, comfortable feel expected from the M-Series platform. A 25.5" scale length and ebony fingerboard provide a precise, responsive playing experience, while 24 extra-jumbo Jescar stainless steel frets support effortless bends, expressive vibrato and exceptional durability. Mother-of-pearl dot inlays complete the guitar's distinctive appearance.

Fishman Fluence Tone With Three Distinct Voices

Equipped with a Fishman Fluence Modern pickup set, the M-II HT offers a broad range of sounds without sacrificing clarity or output. Push-pull volume and tone controls unlock three voices, allowing players to move between articulate clean tones, single-coil-inspired textures and modern high-gain sounds from a single instrument. Combined with the three-way pickup selector, this flexible electronics package provides the versatility needed for everything from clean rhythm work to saturated lead tones.

Premium Hardware for Reliable Performance

Every hardware component has been selected to support stability, sustain and consistent performance. A Hipshot fixed bridge provides a solid connection between the strings and body, helping maximize resonance and accurate intonation. The bone nut and staggered Gotoh locking tuners further enhance tuning stability while simplifying string changes. Together, these appointments create a dependable platform that performs confidently in rehearsal, recording and live-performance environments.

Exclusive Sparkle Finishes That Stand Apart

The M-II HT is offered in two Guitar Center Exclusive finishes: Pyromancer and Psychedelic Sparkle. These distinctive finishes give the instrument a unique visual identity while complementing its modern design and premium appointments. Whether under stage lighting or in the studio, each finish provides a striking look that sets this model apart from standard production offerings.

Designed for Today's Demanding Players

From its ESP USA craftsmanship and fast-playing neck to its multi-voice Fishman Fluence Modern electronics and premium hardware package, the M-II HT is built for players who demand versatility without compromise. Combining modern performance features, distinctive aesthetics and exclusive availability, the ESP M-II HT stands as a Guitar Center Exclusive instrument designed to deliver professional-level playability and tone.
