Full Description
The ESP USA Horizon-II is a masterfully crafted, high-performance superstrat built for precision, versatility, and striking stage presence. Handcrafted in ESP’s USA Workshop, this Horizon-II combines the elegance of a carved flamed maple top with the power and reliability of premium components. Its set-thru mahogany body delivers rich resonance and sustain, while the Dark Purple Sunburst finish showcases the top’s dramatic figuring with a refined yet aggressive edge.
Its 3-piece maple neck with graphite reinforcement is shaped to ESP’s Thin U contour—fast, comfortable, and rock-solid across the entire 25.5" scale length. The ebony fingerboard features 24 Jescar FW57110 XJ stainless steel frets for smooth, durable playability and effortless bending. A matching headcap and sleek neck finish tie the aesthetic together for a unified, boutique feel.
Power comes from a Fishman Fluence Modern 3-Voice set in black nickel, offering a wide tonal palette—from modern active punch to crisp passive-like clarity—at the flick of a switch. Volume, tone, and a 3-way toggle provide intuitive control, while the TonePros T3BT locking TOM bridge with string-thru-body design ensures rock-solid tuning stability and maximum resonance. Gotoh Magnum Lock tuners and Dunlop Straplok buttons complete the pro-level hardware package.
Condition: This is a brand new ESP USA Horizon-II, built to deliver elite tone, versatility, and unmatched craftsmanship. It ships in an ESP USA form-fit case and includes our Pro-Tech Setup so it’s ready to perform right out of the box. The hardshell case has a some ding from shipping damage (see photos). Drop Dee Guitars is an authorized ESP USA dealer.
Pro-Tech Setup: Every guitar we sell undergoes our Pro-Tech setup, including:
- Neck adjustment for optimal relief
- Nut inspection and setup for tuning stability
- Bridge and intonation adjustments for perfect pitch across the fretboard
- Action adjustment for fast, buzz-free playability

With this setup, your ESP USA Horizon-II will feel and sound its absolute best from the first note.

Overall great customer service and very friendly demeanor from Matt and Kristen at Drop Dee. Guitar matched its description perfectly and included everything as listed.

Thanks for the Custom Shop Strat!

I must say, I've had enough of mass sellers like SweetWater with their extra fees for everything that should be included as part of a guitar sale. Drop Dee Guitars exceeded my expectations by far with my order, ensuring that my instrument was a joy to play straight out of the box. I eagerly anticipate future business with this store. They are truly a shining star! Excellent communication throughout the pre-sale and after-sale as well. Thank you!
