Description
ESP LTD ARROW-1000ET Evertune Black Guitar B-Stock
The Arrow-1000ET delivers an extra-thin U neck contour paired with a neck-thru construction that produces exceptional sustain and resonance for tracking and layering. This aggressive, arrow-shaped design combines premium materials with cutting-edge hardware to create an instrument engineered for professional studio tracking and session work. The B-stock condition offers significant value without compromising the engineering that makes this guitar a serious recording and production tool.
Playability & Construction for Recording Sessions
Neck-thru design with a 3-piece maple neck and macassar ebony fingerboard ensures superior stability and a fast, smooth playing surface—critical for nailing takes without worrying about neck movement under the demands of studio work. The extra-thin U neck contour, combined with a 300-400mm compound fingerboard radius, accommodates both aggressive bending at lower frets and technical work in the upper register, while the 42mm molded nut provides consistent string spacing across the fretboard for reliable performance across multiple takes and tunings.
Tone & Recording Capabilities
The revolutionary Evertune F-model bridge maintains perfect tuning and intonation across a full session, eliminating tuning drift that can complicate overdubs and multi-take recording. Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker active pickups—with alnico in the neck and ceramic in the bridge—deliver warm, articulate tones and aggressive, punchy response that sits well in dense mixes, selectable via push-pull voicing control and toggle switch pickup selector to adapt quickly to different song sections and production needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-Stock mean for this guitar?
B-Stock means this guitar is fully functional with minor cosmetic imperfections—marks or blemishes on the finish that have zero impact on playability, tone, or structural integrity. You get full manufacturer warranty and the same professional-grade performance as a new unit at a significant discount.
How does the Evertune bridge work, and why does it matter?
The Evertune F-model bridge uses a constant tension system that maintains perfect tuning and intonation even under aggressive playing, extended performance sets, or extreme bends. This eliminates tuning drift, making it ideal for long gigs or studio sessions where stability is critical.
What kind of tones can the Fishman Fluence pickups deliver?
The Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers feature alnico voicing in the neck (warm, articulate) and ceramic in the bridge (aggressive, punchy). A push-pull control lets you switch voicing instantly, and a toggle switch selects between neck and bridge pickups, giving you versatile tonal range across metal, hard rock, and progressive styles.
Is the extra-thin U neck comfortable for traditional jazz or folk?
The extra-thin U contour and 25.5" scale length are optimized for speed, technical precision, and drop tunings—best suited for metal, hard rock, and progressive styles. Traditional jazz and folk players typically prefer thicker neck profiles and different hardware voicing.
What specs make this guitar stable for drop tunings and extended playability?
The neck-thru construction with 3-piece maple neck and macassar ebony fingerboard delivers superior stability, while the 300-400mm compound radius handles both aggressive bending at lower frets and technical upper-register work. The 24 stainless steel frets and 42mm nut ensure consistent playability and tuning stability across demanding applications.
