Precision, Power, and Premium Craftsmanship - The ESP USA M-II DX Electric Guitar in Black Open Grain Satin

The USA M-II DX is a high-end take on one of the world’s most beloved shred guitars. Crafted by the team of expert luthiers at the ESP USA facility in Southern California, it offers an ash body with sturdy bolt-on construction at 25.5” scale. Its extra thin U-shaped quarter-sawn maple neck with natural satin finish provides the smoothest and fastest playing experience. Also, the USA M-II DX’s black finish on an open-grain wood surface offers an elegant yet tough aesthetic. This guitar also offers an ebony fingerboard with clean abalone dot inlays and 24 extra-jumbo Jescar stainless steel frets.

This guitar features a recessed TonePros locking bridge with string-thru-body design, providing both playing comfort and tone advantages. Other high-end components on the USA M-II DX Hardtail Black Open Grain Satin include a bone nut, Gotoh Magnum Lock tuners, Dunlop strap locks, and a set of custom hand-wound direct-mounted pickups you won’t find anywhere but from ESP. In the bridge position is a Seymour Duncan Custom 14, a new pickup made exclusively for ESP that offers high output and extraordinary tonal balance with mind-blowing articulation and clarity, and is splittable with a push-pull control on the tone knob. The Custom 14 is paired with a special cosmetically-matching Seymour Duncan APH-1 Alnico II Pro humbucker in the neck position, a legendary pickup that offers a warm tone that is smooth and full, with tons of natural sustain.

The USA M-II DX Black Open Grain Satin includes a custom ESP USA form-fitting hardshell case, and an official Certificate of Authenticity from ESP.

Stainless Steel Frets

ESP USA guitars feature Jescar FW57110 stainless steel frets for the ultimate in smooth playing feel for controlled bends and vibrato, and reliable longterm durability

Recessed Bridge

Inset into the body, the recessed TOM bridge, in combination with the string-thru-body design, provides increased playing comfort and overall resonance.

Deep Dish Jack

In addition to looking sleek, the Deep Dish jack installed on ESP USA models has the added benefit of providing the depth and angle of the cable to be easily looped around the player’s strap to better protect the cable from crimps or other damage.
