ESP E-II Horizon NT-II Tiger Eye Amber Fade Electric Guitar w/Case B-Stock
The E-II Horizon NT-II is engineered for gigging musicians and studio players who need rock-solid reliability and tonal versatility night after night. Neck-thru-body construction locks in exceptional sustain and harmonic clarity, while the mahogany core and figured quilted maple top finished in striking Tiger Eye Amber Fade deliver visual presence on stage. The thin-U neck contour and 24 extra-jumbo frets feel fast and responsive under your hands, whether you're driving aggressive rhythmic work or executing fluid lead passages. This is a professional-grade instrument built to handle whatever a demanding setlist demands.
Construction & Playability
Neck-thru-body construction ensures superior sustain and vibration transfer throughout the instrument. The 3-piece maple neck with ebony fingerboard and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets provide durability and fast action, while the 42mm bone nut and precise 305mm fingerboard radius (thin-U profile) accommodate both aggressive picking and smooth bends.
Tone & Electronics
Active EMG 66TW (neck) and EMG 57TW (bridge) pickups deliver articulate, punchy tones with independent coil-splitting controls accessible via push/pull volume and tone pots. The Gotoh TOM bridge with string-thru-body design combined with Gotoh locking tuners and black nickel hardware ensures rock-solid tuning stability and enhanced tonal transfer. Toggle switch selects between single-coil, split, and humbucker modes for versatile sonic range from tight, focused rhythms to warm, singing leads.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this guitar?
B-Stock means this E-II Horizon NT-II is fully functional with the same specifications and tone as new inventory, but carries minor cosmetic imperfections such as finish marks or scuffs. These are purely superficial and have zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity, making it an exceptional value.
What pickup configuration does this guitar have, and can I switch between single-coil and humbucker?
The E-II Horizon NT-II features active EMG 66TW (neck) and EMG 57TW (bridge) pickups with independent coil-splitting controlled via push/pull volume and tone pots. A toggle switch lets you select between single-coil, split-coil, and full humbucker modes for versatile sonic range.
Is this guitar suitable for drop tunings and aggressive playing?
Yes. The 25.5-inch scale, 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, 305mm fingerboard radius, and string-thru-body Gotoh TOM bridge with locking tuners are engineered specifically for drop-tuning stability and aggressive rhythmic work. The thin-U neck contour and 42mm bone nut accommodate both hard picking and smooth bends.
How does the neck-thru-body construction affect tone and sustain?
Neck-thru-body construction ensures superior sustain and harmonic resonance by allowing vibrations to travel freely throughout the instrument from nut to bridge. Combined with the mahogany core and quilted maple top, this design delivers the tonal depth and consistency required for professional gigging and recording.
What hardware and tuning stability can I expect?
The guitar features Gotoh locking tuners, a Gotoh TOM bridge with string-thru-body design, and black nickel hardware. This combination ensures rock-solid tuning stability and enhanced tonal transfer, critical for long gigs and studio sessions.
