Sound & Tone
The mahogany body and neck-thru maple construction give this Arrow a warm, midrange-forward core with long sustain, while the 25.5" scale and Macassar ebony board keep low notes tight and articulate. Fishman Fluence Modern humbuckers cover a wide range, with the alnico neck offering smooth, vocal lead tones and the ceramic bridge delivering punchy, high-output aggression, and the push/pull voice switching adds a second flavor of each. It's built for modern rock and metal: fast technical riffing, palm-muted rhythm work, and upper-fret soloing on the extra-jumbo stainless frets.
ESP LTD ARROW-1000NT Charcoal Metallic Satin Guitar B-Stock
The neck-thru construction and extra-thin U-contour neck unlock exceptional upper-fret access and fast playability—essential for tracking intricate riffing and layered solos in the studio. The 25.5" scale balances string tension with clarity, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard with compound 300-400mm radius transitions smoothly between open-chord recordings and lead overdubs. This B-stock model delivers full playability and sonic performance despite minor cosmetic imperfections.
Tone & Electronics
Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker pickups—alnico in the neck and ceramic in the bridge—capture versatile tones from smooth, aggressive textures to punchy high-output metal voices. The active electronics with master volume push/pull control and toggle switch provide additional voice selection for expanded tonal range during tracking, while the recessed TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru body design enhances sustain and tuning stability across multiple takes.
Build & Hardware
Mahogany body construction yields warm, resonant tone with strong midrange character that sits well in a mix. The 3-piece maple neck paired with 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets ensures durability and effortless bending during session work, supported by a 42mm locking nut and LTD locking tuners for reliable tuning retention across demanding recording sessions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does B-stock mean for this guitar?
B-stock means this ARROW-1000NT is fully functional and sonically identical to a new unit. It carries minor cosmetic marks on the charcoal metallic satin finish that are purely superficial and do not affect structural integrity, playability, or tone. It maintains full manufacturer warranty coverage and is offered at a significant discount.
Is this guitar suitable for metal and technical riffing?
Yes. The ARROW-1000NT is purpose-built for metal, hard rock, progressive, drop tunings, and technical riffing. The thin U-contour neck, 24 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, and Fishman Fluence pickups with high bridge output support aggressive bending, fast playability, and punchy midrange tone that sits well in heavy mixes.
How does the neck design support different playing styles?
The thin U-contour neck combined with a 300–400mm compound-radius fingerboard eliminates dead zones between open position work and lead playing, allowing seamless transitions across the 25.5" scale length. The neck-thru construction with 3-piece maple provides maximum sustain and upper-fret access without playability gaps.
What pickup voices can I get with the Fishman Fluence electronics?
The Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers use an alnico pickup in the neck for warmth and a ceramic bridge pickup for high output. The active electronics include a master volume push/pull control and toggle switch for voice selection, giving you versatile tones from smooth aggression to punchy metal without changing pickups.
What hardware ensures tuning stability during aggressive play?
The recessed TonePros locking TOM bridge with string-thru body design, combined with a 42mm locking nut and LTD locking tuners, maintains tuning stability across extended play and drop tuning sessions.
