The mighty ESP Maverick is back! Originally produced in the early ‘90s, this curvy, high‑octane shred machine makes a triumphant return in the E‑II Series — lovingly crafted in Japan with premium woods, top‑flight hardware and pro‑grade electronics. It’s sleek, stupidly fast and absolutely primed to rocket your playing into the stratosphere.

Lightning-fast playability

If you’re chasing that effortless, silky playing feel, the E-II Maverick 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.

Seymour Duncan pickups

Loaded with a TB‑14 in the bridge and an SCR‑1 rail pickup in the neck, the E-II Maverick packs a seriously tasty tonal combo. The TB‑14 dishes out chunky low‑end, singing mids and enough bite to handle everything from modern rock riffage to molten lead lines. While the SCR‑1 delivers smooth, glassy single‑coil sparkle without the hum. Add in the push/pull tone knob to split the coils, and you’ve got a Swiss‑army‑knife level of versatility — perfect for players who want one guitar that can do the lot.

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.

Key Features

  • Thin “U” neck profile: A super‑sleek carve that lets you rip around the fingerboard with zero resistance. It’s fast, comfy and built for serious shredding.
  • 27 XJ stainless steel frets: Jumbo feel for ultra‑smooth bends with superb durability. Your riffs and licks will sound crisp and alive for years, all the way up to the 27th fret!
  • Seymour Duncan TB-14 & SCR-1 pickups: Powerful, modern humbucker punch alongside smooth, noise‑free single‑coil clarity. With the push/pull tone knob for coil‑splitting, you can go from full‑throttle rock to crisp, articulate cleans.
  • Floyd Rose Original tremolo: Dive‑bomb, flutter and squeal to your heart’s content — all while staying perfectly in tune.
  • Gotoh locking tuners: Lightning‑fast string changes and reliable tuning stability, even under the most aggressive playing.
  • ESP strap locks: Keeps your guitar securely strapped in during even the most energetic performances. No surprises, just confidence on stage.
  • Included hard case: Keeps this high‑octane axe safe wherever you go, whether you’re heading to the studio or hitting the road.

More info about this Product

Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.

Guitars

Guitars cover a wide range of instruments designed to suit different styles, techniques, and sounds, from acoustic and classical models to solid body, semi-hollow, and hollow electric designs. Factors like body shape, scale length, neck profile, string type, and pickups all influence how a guitar feels and responds, making each type suited to different players and musical approaches. Whether used for rhythm, lead, songwriting, or experimentation, guitars are expressive, versatile instruments that form the heart of countless genres and playing styles.

Solid Body Electric Guitars

Solid body electric guitars are built from a solid piece or pieces of wood, giving them excellent sustain, stability, and resistance to feedback at higher volumes. This construction makes them well suited to amplified playing across a wide range of styles, from clean and articulate tones to heavy, high-gain sounds. Their design allows pickups and hardware to play a major role in shaping tone, while the solid body provides a consistent, reliable feel. Solid body electric guitars are valued for their durability, versatility, and ability to perform confidently on stage and in the studio.
