ESPRestock ESP LTD Alexi Laiho Arrowhead SE 20th Anniversary Electric Guitar - Black with Yellow Bevels

Twenty years after ESP first partnered with Alexi Laiho, this special edition electric guitar stands as a focused tribute to the speed, precision and visual identity that defined his playing. The ESP LTD Alexi Laiho Arrowhead SE 20th Anniversary electric guitar revisits Alexi’s unmistakable offset V design, finished in black with bold yellow bevels that immediately recall his earliest signature models. Built with neck-thru-body construction at a 25.5" scale length, this guitar is designed for sustain, stability and uncompromising lead performance, reflecting the neoclassical intensity and blazing speed that shaped an entire generation of metal guitarists. A Single Pickup Voice Built for Clarity and Attack The LTD Arrowhead SE is equipped with a single EMG HZ F-H2 passive humbucker, wired through a straightforward volume-only control layout. This pickup delivers tight low end, aggressive midrange bite and clear high-end definition, making it well suited for high-gain rhythm work and cutting lead tones. The simplified signal path keeps the response immediate and direct, staying true to Alexi’s preference for clarity and articulation at extreme speeds. Floyd Rose 1000 Bridge for Extreme Stability A double-locking Floyd Rose 1000 bridge anchors the Arrowhead SE, providing the tuning stability required for aggressive vibrato, dive bombs and wide pitch manipulation. Designed for precision and durability, the bridge maintains accurate intonation and smooth operation under heavy use, supporting the expressive, high-impact playing that defined Alexi’s style. Neck and Fingerboard Built for High-Speed Soloing The thin U-shaped three-piece maple neck is designed for fast, fluid movement across the fretboard and finished in satin for a smooth, non-sticky feel. A Macassar ebony fingerboard with arrowhead-shaped pearloid inlays carries 24 extra-jumbo frets and is scalloped from frets 19–24, allowing for greater control and effortless bends in the upper register. Combined with the 25.5" scale length, this layout is optimized for precision, speed and technical lead playing. Neck-Thru Construction With Distinctive Visual Details Neck-thru-body construction pairs alder body wings to the three-piece maple neck, increasing sustain and resonance while maintaining structural strength. The reverse side of the guitar features a matching yellow bevel finish, an exceptionally smooth satin neck and the iconic COBHC logo, reinforcing its identity as a true Alexi Laiho signature model. Gold hardware and precise Grover tuners complete the build, balancing reliability with striking visual contrast. A Special-Edition ESP LTD Electric Guitar Honoring Alexi Laiho The ESP LTD Alexi Laiho Arrowhead SE 20th Anniversary electric guitar is built for players who connect with the late Children of Bodom guitarist’s legacy of speed, precision and uncompromising tone. From its aggressive single-pickup configuration to its scalloped upper-register fingerboard and Floyd Rose bridge, every element serves performance first. Whether on stage or in the studio, this is an electric guitar that delivers the control, sustain and visual impact expected from a tribute to one of modern metal’s most influential guitarists.
