Formerly called ESP Standard, all ESP E-II instruments are created at the ESP factory in Tokyo, Japan, and are designed for professional players who accept no compromises in tone, feel, or reliability for their guitars and basses.

Available in an outstanding Black Natural Burst finish over an alder body with spalted maple top, the BTL basses offer a sonic signature powered by a Seymour Duncan SSB passive pickup set thats paired with ESP sown high-end active 3-band Cinnamon EQ system.
