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.

My favorite guitar

This is an amazing instrument, I have wanted one for about 30 years and finally recently purchased one. It plays so well that I almost feel like I'm cheating. Fit and finish are flawless, it is truly beautiful and is one of those things that seems to get prettier every time I see it. Expensive but I still feel like I got a bargain; there is real value here. Shipping and packaging were great, it arrived in perfect condition.
I Love This Guitar!!!

I don't play in a band now, but have been playing for about 45 years. I also have an ESP original, and feel that this USA is the better guitar. I don't have any other Custom shop ESPs to compare them to, so I can't say whether or not all ESP USA guitars are better than all ESP Original guitars. I'd suppose it varies from one guitar to another, butI can say out of the two Custom shop ESPs I have I prefer the Usa. That's not to say my Original is a bad guitar either, it's very far from it. They're both wonderful guitars!

Hi there, really interested in this guitar. However, I was wondering what blemished meant for this specific guitar? And also a confirmation on what are the specific pickups it comes with? Thanks!
