ESP E-II Arrow NT Electric Guitar Nebula Black Burst
The E-II Arrow NT cuts through the mix with a neck-thru-body platform that locks in during every performance. Its ultra-smooth ebony fingerboard and fast 305mm radius keep your fingers moving effortlessly across 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets. The thin U-contoured maple neck with satin back finish melts away in your hands on long sets, while the Nebula Black Burst finish over burled maple commands the stage with angular, modern presence that photographs as striking as it plays.
Playability & Construction
Neck-thru-body construction with a three-piece hard maple neck anchors superior sustain and zero-drift stability across the 25.5" scale—essential for gigging musicians who demand reliability night after night. The ebony fingerboard's fast 305mm radius and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets respond instantly to your technique, whether locking down rhythm parts or executing technical passages. A 42mm bone nut and thin U contour create a responsive platform built to handle serious touring demands.
Tone & Electronics
The Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers cover expansive tonal ground—warm and articulate from the alnico neck pickup, tight and aggressive from the ceramic bridge pickup. Active electronics with push-pull volume controls unlock a second voicing on each pickup, giving you multiple tone palettes in one instrument. Swap sounds mid-set without reaching for another guitar.

Frequently Asked Questions
What skill level is the E-II Arrow NT best suited for?
This guitar is designed for intermediate, advanced, and professional players. The fast ebony fingerboard, thin U neck contour, and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets reward technical playing and sustained sessions, making it ideal for players already comfortable with demanding fretboard geometry and active electronics.
What genres does this guitar excel in?
The E-II Arrow NT is purpose-built for metal, hard rock, progressive, and modern rock. Its tight low end, aggressive midrange, and sustain-focused voicing are optimized for these styles; it is not optimized for jazz, folk, or country applications.
How do the dual-voicing Fishman Fluence pickups expand tone?
Each pickup (alnico neck and ceramic bridge) offers two voicings accessible via push-pull volume controls. The neck pickup ranges from warm and articulate to a second character, while the bridge delivers tight and aggressive tones with a second option, allowing you to shape your sound across multiple genres without instrument swaps.
What makes the neck-thru construction significant?
Neck-thru-body construction with a three-piece hard maple neck guarantees superior sustain and rock-solid tuning stability across the 25.5-inch scale. Combined with the thin U contour and satin back finish, the neck disappears into your hands during extended playing, eliminating fatigue on long gigs or studio sessions.
What hardware and electronics are included?
The guitar features Gotoh TOM bridge with string-thru body design, Gotoh locking tuners, ESP locking strap buttons, active electronics with push-pull volume and toggle switch, and a 42mm bone nut. The Nebula Black Burst finish includes white neck and headstock bindings with black hardware throughout.
