ESP SN-2 E-II Bukeye Burl Nebula Black Burst

An E-II Designed for Modern Playing, Combining ESP Tradition and Pro-Level Demands

The E-II SN-2 embodies the "Super-Strat" spirit cherished by ESP: familiar ergonomics optimized for stage and studio. With its alder body and buckeye burl maple top, it combines a balanced foundation with a sharp attack, while showcasing a high-end visual identity. This is a 6-string electric guitar oriented towards performance, designed to handle low tunings and high saturation levels without losing definition.

For Which Guitarists and Styles?

This guitar is mainly aimed at intermediate to expert guitarists seeking a precise, fast, and reliable instrument, notably thanks to the Floyd Rose. It excels in modern metal, progressive metal, hardcore, djent, heavy rock, and technical lead playing. The Thin U neck and 24 frets favor fast runs, wide intervals, legato, and solos with comfortable access to the upper frets.

Sound

The alder body provides a natural balance: present mids, firm lows, and clear highs, perfect for maintaining punch in a mix. The buckeye burl maple top adds a sharper attack and better note clarity, useful when increasing gain. The two Bare Knuckle Aftermath Battleworn humbuckers, paired with passive electronics, deliver a tight, highly defined, and aggressive sound when needed, with excellent note separation in chords. The 1 volume and 1 push/pull tone controls expand the tonal palette, while the 3-position selector allows quick switching between rhythm, middle, and lead settings. The original Floyd Rose provides direct response, solid sustain, and great stability for wide vibratos, dives, and precise returns.
