ESP E-II FRX Reindeer Blue with Case

General

Looking like it was forged in the fires of Mount Doom, the Black Satin cloaked demon of tone that is the ESP E-II FRX is the most extreme member of the Forest family, so you'd better don the oven gloves and handle this one with care. Every inch of the brutal yet organic body shape has been carefully considered to result in a perfectly balanced instrument that sits beautifully in the hands so you can expect exacting Japanese craftsmanship and effortless playing comfort. The ESP E-II FRX comes complete with a hardshell case.

The ESP E-II FRX: From Clean to Metal

There's no doubt that the ESP E-II FRX is fully focussed on metal and its many children, but this guitar has way more to offer than just face-melting force. The mahogany body comes mounted with a legendary pair of EMG 89 humbuckers, which can be coil-split via the neat push-pull pots to support sparkling, EMG SA-style single-coil-flavoured cleans as well as warm and powerful, EMG 85-style dual-coil output. And the treats don't end there, since this model is home to an Original Floyd Rose tremolo bridge, a Floyd Rose locking nut and a set of Gotoh Locking tuners to firm up the tuning and intonation.

The ESP E-II Series

The ESP E-II line-up builds a bridge between the more expensive ESP Original Series models and the more affordable LTD models. However, these are no entry-level guitars. These are high-precision riff-machines, each developed and built in Japan by ESP's own qualified guitar gurus, setting a new standard when it comes to quality. Every E-II six-string features high-grade woods, comes dipped in a deluxe paint-job and loaded with the best pickups and hardware going.
