Formerly known as “ESP Standard”, ESP E-II instruments are made in Japan at the ESP factory. With the E-II M-II Mercury Blueburst, you’re getting a powerhouse of a guitar that’s ready to impress, both visually and sonically. This guitar features set-thru construction at 25.5” scale for fast and easy access to the highest frets. Its alder body features a burled maple top with figured wood grain and knots that look incredible under its translucent finish. Its three-piece maple neck is satin-finished on the back for the ultimate in smooth playing feel. Its ebony fingerboard features pearloid offset block inlays and 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets. White binding accents the guitar’s top, headstock, and neck. The E-II M-II Mercury Blueburst offers a set of premium-quality components like a Hipshot hardtail bridge with string-thru-body, Gotoh locking tuners, a bone nut, and ESP strap locks. This outstanding guitar also features a set of direct-mounted Bare Knuckle Aftermath pickups with black Battleworn covers, offering accelerated bass response for exceptionally fast tracking of high-speed staccato riffing, and delivering a crushing midrange and precise high-end articulation. A push-pull tone control allows for coil splitting. Includes ESP deluxe hardshell case.
