Crafted at ESP's Tokyo factory, and designed as a no-compromise instrument for professional players who demand the best in reliability, feel and tone, the E-II Horizon FR-7 from ESP combines stunning looks with premium components and superb fit and finish. With a stunning quilted maple top and full binding—body, neck and headstock—its appearance is definitely top-shelf. The set-through neck and solid mahogany body combine for exceptional tonal balance and sustain, helped along by the Hipshot hardtail bridge and locking Gotoh tuners. Serious tone is assisted by the EMG 66-7H/57-7H active humbuckers with as much clarity as you could want and as much bite as you need.
