Tailor-made for Aggressive Playing

The ESP LTD Arrow-1000 is tailor-made for metal, hard rock, and other genres where it’s important to stand out from the crowd. Everything about this axe is bold — from its aggressive offset-V body shape to its screaming active EMG humbuckers. That said, it plays like butter, thanks to a comfortable Thin U-shaped neck and fast-playing Macassar ebony fingerboard. A Floyd Rose tremolo makes dive-bombs and warbles easy, while Grover tuners ensure rock-solid intonation. The LTD Arrow-100 features eye-catching black hardware and pearloid arrow fingerboard inlays.

Active EMG pickups deliver impressive versatility

The ESP LTD Arrow-1000 is fitted with a pair of hot active humbuckers — an EMG 85 in the neck position and an EMG 81 at the bridge. A classic combo. There's a reason top metal guitarists use active pickups: they rock hard. The EMG 81 has become a first-call lead pickup choice for some of the most respected metal guitarists of all time, while the EMG 85 provides the perfect tonal complement. Stirred with a 3-way toggle and poured through volume and tone pots, this heady brew is a veritable tone fest that gives you everything from chimey cleans to searing hot shred — and all points in between.

This guitar looks amazing under stage lights

No doubt about it — with its aggressive offset-V body shape, no-nonsense black hardware, and pearloid arrow fingerboard inlays, the ESP LTD Arrow-1000 looks killer. A class act all the way. If you're into heavier rock and metal, then this guitar is designed for you. Onstage, the LTD Arrow-1000 projects pure attitude. At Sweetwater, we're stone serious about sound… but we're not immune to a little stage vanity. Look at it this way: as you're bludgeoning your audience with monstrous power chords, you might as well look good doing it. And with the LTD Arrow-1000, you will.
