High-performance guitars don’t get much better than this! The ESP E-II Horizon FR-II is the ultimate supercharged S‑style machine, meticulously crafted in Japan using top‑shelf materials, hardware and electronics. It’s smooth, sleek, outrageously fast — and primed to help your riffs and solos slice through any mix with authority.
Lightning-fast playability
If you’re chasing that effortless, silky playing feel, the E-II Horizon FR-II absolutely delivers. Its ultra-comfortable Thin “U” neck profile sits perfectly in the hand, paired with a dark, luxurious Ebony fingerboard that feels as smooth as it looks. Add in XJ stainless steel frets for rock-solid durability and glassy bends, plus the slippery satin finish, and you’ll instantly know this thing is built for speed from the moment you pick it up.
Active EMG pickups
With an EMG 81 in the bridge and an EMG 89R in the neck, the ESP E-II Horizon FR-II is locked, loaded and ready for anything from tight modern metal to soaring leads. The 81 dishes out that iconic, razor-edged crunch with heaps of clarity, while the 89R gives you a rounder, more expressive voice — complete with split-coil capability via the push/pull volume knob for added versatility.
Floyd Rose Original tremolo
A guitar this quick needs a trem system that can keep up — and the Floyd Rose Original is the gold standard. Divebombs, flutters, wild squeals… whatever tricks you’ve got up your sleeve, this bridge holds tune like a champ. Its locking design means you can push it to the absolute limit and still come back perfectly in tune, gig after gig, track after track.
