General

For the longest time, it's been difficult to spot an ESP Horizon-III outside of Japan. Thankfully they've been slowly migrating across the water and as such, we are treated to the super-rare sight of this ESP E-II Horizon-III FR finished in a stunning See Thru Black Sunburst. This multi-faceted, professional instrument has been topped with a slice of flamed maple, polishing off the resonance of the mahogany body with a touch of bite, while a set of Seymour Duncan humbuckers spoon out elastic, variable tone. This model also comes with a tailor-made case.

The ESP E-II Horizon-III FR: Superior Playability

Thanks to the neck-thru construction, every last one of the twenty-four extra-jumbo frets are easily reached while the sustain is fully enhanced. ESP has also opted for a dark, ebony fretboard with a modern 12 inch radius and a 42mm nut width which, coupled with the Thin-U neck profile, gives the E-II Horizon-III a fast and instantly familiar playing feel. To finish, solid tuning stability and intonation are guaranteed by a Floyd Rose Original double locking tremolo bridge and Gotoh locking tuners.

The ESP E-II Series

ESP's E-II series sets a new standard in high-quality electric guitars and basses. Every model in the range has been built with care and precision by ESP luthiers in Japan. The result is an instrument that boast higher overall quality and a tighter finish than ESP LTD models, but without the same price tag as ESP Original and ESP USA Series models. This range includes almost every one of the greatest hits, from the Horizon to the Eclipse and from the Arrow to the Mystique.
