Description

Sound & Tone

The Seymour Duncan AHB-1 active set delivers tight, high-output tones with a very low noise floor, and the alder body, neck-thru construction, and ebony fingerboard push that toward a focused attack with long, even sustain across all 24 frets. The 25.5" scale keeps low notes firm and articulate under heavy gain, while the extra-jumbo frets and thin neck profile favor fast legato runs and technical lead work. It's aimed squarely at modern metal and hard rock, with the Floyd Rose Original on hand for dive bombs and controlled pitch effects.

ESP Arrow Electric Guitar Black Andromeda

The ESP Arrow sits in your hands with a thin, fast neck profile and lightweight alder body that responds instantly to your touch and technique. Neck-thru construction locks in consistent sustain and resonance across every register, while the ebony fingerboard and 24 extra-jumbo frets give you smooth, high-speed access to the entire fretboard for shredding and technical passages. The Black Andromeda finish commands attention on stage—a striking, aggressive look that matches the instrument's modern edge and cutting presence in any live setting.

Playability & Construction

The neck-thru joint fuses body and neck into one rigid structure, channeling every vibration into sustain and punch that cuts through a mix. A 3-piece hard maple neck paired with ebony fingerboard and 305mm radius responds instantly to your fretting hand, while 24 extra-jumbo frets give you plenty of fret width for precision work across the full range—open chords to the highest solos without any cramping or compromise.

Electronics & Hardware

The Seymour Duncan AHB-1 active pickup set—neck and bridge—delivers articulate, punchy tones with a noise floor so low it won't muddy your tone on stage. A straightforward master volume and mini toggle pickup selector keep your hands on the fretboard instead of fumbling with controls. Hardware engineered for reliability: Floyd Rose Original bridge locks in your tuning through heavy dive-bombs and pitch bends, Gotoh SG360-07 MG-T tuners dial in intonation precisely, and a locking nut anchors strings at the headstock for zero slip under extreme playing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pickup configuration does this guitar have?

The Arrow features a Seymour Duncan AHB-1 active pickup set in both neck and bridge positions, delivering high-output, articulate tones with minimal noise. Control is via a master volume knob and a mini toggle pickup selector.

Is this guitar suitable for standard tuning, or is it built for lower tunings?

The 25.5-inch scale length and Floyd Rose Original bridge support both standard and alternative tunings. The locking nut and Gotoh tuners ensure precise intonation retention in any tuning you choose.

What makes the neck-thru construction important for this style?

Neck-thru design eliminates the body-neck seam and allows vibration to transfer freely from fret to body, maximizing sustain and resonance—essential for metal and djent playing. The 3-piece hard maple neck with ebony fingerboard and 305mm radius also provides a fast, smooth playing surface for technical precision.

How does the fret size affect playability?

The 24 extra-jumbo frets offer wide, tall crowns that make bending, tapping, and precision work easier, especially in the upper registers. This is ideal for advanced players executing fast lead lines and complex techniques.

What hardware is used for tuning stability?

The Arrow uses Gotoh SG360-07 MG-T tuners paired with a Floyd Rose Original bridge and locking nut, ensuring reliable tuning retention even under aggressive playing and frequent string bends.
