ESP E-II Arrow Burl Guitar Nebula Black Burst B-Stock
Handcrafted in Japan — The Ultimate Arrow in the E-II Lineup
The ESP E-II Arrow Burl Nebula Black Burst is a striking blend of bold design, flawless Japanese craftsmanship, and modern metal performance. Made at ESP’s Tokyo factory, this premium E-II model elevates the Arrow shape with a stunning burled maple top finished in Nebula Black Burst—an artful combination of elegance and aggression that commands attention on any stage.
Built with neck-thru-body construction for incredible sustain and tonal stability, the E-II Arrow features a three-piece maple neck and alder body. The ebony fingerboard boasts 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets and triangular pearloid inlays, while the satin-finished neck ensures smooth, fast playability. Every detail reflects ESP’s dedication to precision and feel.
This model comes loaded with a pair of direct-mount Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers—a ceramic bridge and alnico neck pickup—delivering massive, articulate tone with advanced versatility. Using the push-pull volume control, you can switch between two distinct voicings: one aggressive and high-output, the other more dynamic and expressive. The result is an incredibly adaptable sound for everything from brutal riffing to soaring leads.
Hardware appointments are built for elite performance and longevity, including a Floyd Rose Original SE tremolo with upgraded stainless steel screws, Gotoh locking tuners, and ESP strap locks. The black hardware perfectly complements the dark, exotic aesthetic of the Nebula Black Burst finish. Each guitar ships in a deluxe ESP form-fit hardshell case for ultimate protection.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean, and what should I expect?
B-Stock means the guitar is fully functional with minor cosmetic imperfections—it plays and sounds exactly like a new model. You receive the same Japanese craftsmanship, Fishman Fluence pickups, Floyd Rose tremolo, and deluxe ESP hardshell case at a premium discount.
Can I switch between different pickup voicings on the fly?
Yes. The push-pull volume control lets you toggle between two distinct Fishman Fluence voicings: one aggressive and high-output from the ceramic bridge pickup, and another more dynamic and expressive setting. This gives you massive tonal flexibility within a single instrument.
Is this guitar suitable for djent and metal styles?
Absolutely. The direct-mount ceramic bridge Fishman Fluence pickup delivers the articulate, tight low end and brutal aggression djent and modern metal demand. The neck-thru construction adds sustain and stability, while the Floyd Rose Original SE tremolo with stainless steel screws handles aggressive playing and road use.
What's included in the box?
You receive the guitar, an ESP Deluxe V-Alexi Form-Fit Hardshell Case, Elixir Nanoweb Super Light strings (.009–.042), ESP strap locks, and all hardware. No need to source a case separately.
How does the satin neck finish affect playability?
The satin finish provides fast, smooth playability ideal for shredding and complex phrasing—your hand moves freely without friction. Combined with the thin U neck contour and 305mm fingerboard radius, it's designed for speed and comfort during long sessions or gigs.
