ESP E-II SN-2 Lefty Guitar in Blue Natural Fade
This left-handed ESP E-II SN-2 is engineered to track tight, articulate performances with minimal finger noise and maximum responsiveness to dynamics. The thin U neck profile and buttery-smooth ebony fingerboard enable precise fingering and expressive vibrato work that translates cleanly to tape or DAW. Built in Japan with pro-grade hardware and electronics, the 25.5" scale length and bolt-on construction deliver the kind of resonance and sustain that sits confidently in dense mixes. Finished in striking blue natural fade over Buckeye burl maple, it's a studio-ready instrument that rewards both technical precision and creative exploration.
Playability & Tracking
The thin U neck contour pairs with a 305mm fingerboard radius and 24 extra-jumbo frets to enable fast, accurate position changes and articulate lead passes without hand fatigue during long tracking sessions. A 42mm nut width and ebony fingerboard provide the tactile precision expected from ESP's higher-tier E-II line, while bolt-on construction keeps the instrument responsive and lively for consistent session-to-session performance.
Tone & Recording Character
Bare Knuckle Aftermath Battleworn pickups capture articulate highs and punchy mids with the clarity needed to cut through dense arrangements or stand alone as a featured rhythm voice. Control comes via master volume and master tone knobs with a 3-way lever pickup selector, all wired for straightforward, reliable operation; the Floyd Rose Original bridge extends sustain and enables expressive vibrato techniques that record with definition and precision.
