The ESP USA HDX-1 Limited Guitar in 3 Tone Sunburst is a premium, limited-run instrument, with only 30 units available, making it a highly exclusive addition to the ESP USA Series. This guitar is designed for players who demand the highest level of performance, tone, and craftsmanship. Based on the original ESP Horizon-III design, the HDX-1 features an extended upper horn and a scooped lower horn, combined with a flat-top body for streamlined, high-performance playability.

Crafted with a resonant Swamp Ash body, the HDX-1’s 3-Tone Sunburst satin finish is applied to the open-grain ash, giving the guitar an incredible aesthetic that highlights the natural beauty of the wood. The bolt-on construction at 25.5” scale provides a snappy response, while the three-piece extra-thin U-shaped maple neck ensures comfort and speed for even the most technical playing styles.

One of the standout features of the HDX-1 is its Richlite fingerboard, a material known for its ultra-smooth feel, durability, and resistance to warping. This fingerboard is ideal for aggressive playing styles, offering a bright attack and excellent performance. The neck is topped with 24 perfectly crowned and rounded extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, making it incredibly smooth for bends and vibrato. Mother-of-pearl offset dot inlays add a touch of elegance to this already stunning instrument.

The HDX-1 is equipped with carefully selected components, including a Hipshot hardtail bridge with string-thru-body design, Gotoh Magnum Lock tuners, Dunlop Straplok buttons, and a bone nut. These components ensure maximum tuning stability, durability, and performance.

The guitar features a single, premium-quality direct-mounted Seymour Duncan Custom 14 pickup, designed exclusively for ESP. This pickup is versatile and dynamic, offering tones that range from chimey cleans to crushing modern chug, with everything in between. The push-pull control on the volume knob allows for coil-splitting, expanding the tonal possibilities even further.

The HDX-1 also includes graphite neck reinforcement bars for added stability and long-term reliability, making this guitar as durable as it is playable.

This limited-edition guitar comes with an ESP form-fit hardshell case and an official Certificate of Authenticity from ESP, ensuring that you are getting a genuine, top-quality instrument.

The ESP USA HDX-1 Limited Guitar in 3 Tone Sunburst is more than just an instrument—it's a collectible piece of art, designed for players who refuse to compromise on tone, feel, or quality. Whether you're performing on stage or recording in the studio, this guitar is built to deliver exceptional results every time.
