FAQ

What is neck-thru construction and why does it matter?
Neck-thru construction means the neck piece runs the full length of the guitar body rather than being bolted or glued at the heel, improving resonance, sustain, and access to upper frets compared to bolt-on designs.

What tone does the EMG 81 active humbucker deliver?
The EMG 81 is known for its tight, articulate low end and high-output response, making it a defining pickup for drop-tuned and high-gain heavy metal playing.

Does the ESP LTD Arrow Black Metal come with a case?
