2024 ESP HDX-I USA 3-Tone Sunburst Open Grain Satin
2024 ESP HDX-I USA 3-Tone Sunburst Open Grain Satin
DESCRIPTION
Limited Run of 30
The latest addition to the ESP USA Series, the USA HDX-I is based on the design of the original ESP Horizon-III with its extended upper horn and shortened and scooped lower horn, but adds a flat-top body designed for streamlined, high-performance guitar playing. This guitar uses sturdy bolt-on construction at 25.5” scale for snappy response, with a comfortable, resonant swamp ash body and a three-piece extra-thin u-shaped maple neck. Its outstanding 3-Tone Sunburst satin finish is applied to the open-grain ash body for an incredible aesthetic. The USA HDX-I also features a Richlite fingerboard, a superb material being used in the world’s highest-end custom-crafted guitars, and currently being asked for by many of our top artists for their personal instruments. Known for performance and durability, it is ultra smooth, flawless, and stable, and is fully resistant to warping, expansion, and contraction, even in the harshest weather changes. It also allows the maple neck to handle truss rod adjustment more accurately and easily. As far as sound, Richlite is reflective and loud, with a bright attack which is ideal for aggressive styles. Topped with 24 perfectly crowned and rounded extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, this neck is more like a sword designed for precision accuracy, and built to last a lifetime. Perfectly inlaid mother-of-pearl offset dots add the final touch.
Components on the USA HDX-I were carefully selected to bring out the most of this high-quality instrument, and include a Hipshot hardtail bridge with string thru body, Gotoh Magnum Lock tuners, Dunlop Straplok buttons, and a bone nut. A single premium-quality direct-mounted pickup is being offered in this guitar; the Custom 14 is a new custom hand-wound pickup designed exclusively for ESP by Seymour Duncan. The flexible and dynamic Custom 14 pickup offers everything you want, from chimey cleans to sizzling classic rock and metal, to the most crushing, tight modern chug. A push-pull control on the volume knob splits this pickup to the most wide-ranging single coil bridge territory we've ever offered.
The USA HDX-I includes an ESP form-fit hardshell case and an official Certificate of Authenticity from ESP.

All of our guitars come with a FREE professional setup to a comfortable action as specified by that instrument’s manufacturer. Our setups always include inspection of (and necessary adjustment to): action, intonation, tremolo angle, truss rod, frets, nut, bridge, and more.

INDIVIDUALLY PHOTOGRAPHED
After 15 years of innovation in our photography process, Ish Guitars has developed a way to get you the most accurate true-to-life color of every instrument we sell. We never embellish, oversaturate, or misrepresent our images, so that your buying experience can be as much like visiting our showroom as possible. Keep in mind that various computer screens can show colors a bit differently, so the color on your screen may not match the real thing perfectly no matter how hard we try. Also, unless otherwise noted, we individually list and photo every piece of gear that comes through our doors.
