While ESP first got started in 1975 as a small repair shop
in Tokyo, it was really toward the mid ‘80s when the guitars and basses grabbed
the attention of players around the world. The team has expanded the popular
LTD ’87 Series to include some of the most coveted guitars from that time
frame. The ESP LTD Horizon Custom 87 6-String Right-Handed Electric Guitar
takes the amazing archtop body of the ESP Horizon, and offers it exactly as
you’d have found it in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s minimally adorned and built
to shred. The ESP LTD Horizon Custom 87 6-String Right-Handed Electric Guitar offers
neck-thru-body construction at 25.5-inch scale for intense sustain, pairing an
alder body and an extra-thin three-piece maple neck. The Horizon Custom ’87
features a Macassar ebony fingerboard with 24 extra-jumbo frets and no inlays,
side position dots help you find your way. Its components include a Floyd Rose
1000 double-locking tremolo, a Seymour Duncan TB-5 Custom Trembucker in the
bridge, and a Seymour Duncan Hot Rails in the neck position. Coil spitting for
single-coil tones on either or both pickups is available via push-pull controls
on the volume and tone knobs.
