Sound & Tone
A mahogany body with maple cap and neck-thru maple construction gives this Arrow a tight low end and long sustain, while the macassar ebony board and 25.5" scale keep note attack crisp and articulate. The Fishman Fluence Modern set covers a wide range: the alnico neck humbucker stays warm and vocal for leads and cleaner passages, while the ceramic bridge pushes a punchy, aggressive voice for high-gain rhythm, with push-pull switching offering a second voicing per pickup. Combined with the Evertune bridge holding pitch under heavy picking, it suits modern metal, technical rhythm work and drop tunings, plus studio tracking where consistent intonation matters.
ESP LTD ARROW-1000ET Evertune Black Guitar B-Stock
The Arrow-1000ET sits in your hands with an extra-thin U neck contour and neck-thru construction that channels energy directly into sustain and resonance you'll feel on stage. This aggressive, arrow-shaped design couples premium materials with cutting-edge hardware to deliver an instrument engineered for professional-level gigging and studio tracking. The B-stock condition offers significant value without compromising the engineering that makes this guitar perform at serious levels.
Playability & Neck Feel
Neck-thru design with a 3-piece maple neck and macassar ebony fingerboard delivers rock-solid stability and a fast, smooth playing surface that responds immediately to your fingers. The extra-thin U neck contour, combined with a 300-400mm compound fingerboard radius, lets you lock into aggressive bends at the first fret and navigate technical passages in the upper register without friction, while the 42mm molded nut spaces the strings consistently across the fretboard for reliable intonation.
Tone & Reliability
The revolutionary Evertune F-model bridge keeps your tuning locked tight through entire sets—no tuning drift between songs, no hassle when you need to focus on playing. Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker active pickups—alnico in the neck position for warmth and articulation, ceramic in the bridge for aggressive punch—switch between voicings via push-pull control and toggle selector, giving you tonal range across multiple genres without changing guitars.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is B-Stock, and does it affect playability or sound?
B-Stock means this guitar is fully functional with only minor cosmetic marks on finish or hardware—zero impact on playability, tone, or electronics. You get the same professional-grade construction and performance as a new unit at a significant discount.
Is the Evertune bridge really necessary for me?
Yes, if you're performing extended sets, recording multiple takes, or playing in drop tunings and extended ranges where traditional bridges drift. The Evertune F-model maintains perfect intonation under any performance condition, eliminating mid-set retuning.
Can I switch between warm and aggressive tones?
Yes. The Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers feature push-pull control and a toggle switch that let you select between alnico neck (warm, articulate) and ceramic bridge (punchy, aggressive) voicings in real time, both on stage and in the studio.
Is this guitar suitable for metal and progressive styles?
Absolutely. The extra-thin U neck contour, 25.5" scale length, 24 stainless-steel frets, and aggressive pickup voicing are purpose-built for metal, progressive, and hard-rock players who need speed, precision, and high output.
What neck profile and fretboard does it have?
The neck is a 3-piece maple with an extra-thin U contour and a macassar ebony fingerboard featuring a 300–400mm compound radius. This design accommodates both aggressive bending at lower frets and technical upper-register work without sacrifice.
