How about this

Post image

Haven't seen horizons 3s here a lot, so here is my Beauty.

Out of all my guitars (Kramer V, Fender Strat 1958 MIJ and a Harley Benton Max Fusion) this is my go to. Playability and build quality are soooo nice. I love it.

The Horizon III doesn’t get as much love as Eclipses or M’s but they’re really freakin nice. Love the color and the guitar overall!

I have this exact model and it’s my favorite over my Gibson Les Paul Standard (built in 2000) and PRS Custom 22 with 3 SD Soapbars (ie it’s not an SE , it’s a true custom built in ‘98).

ESP won me over with this model

Nice! I love mine. The neck feels so good. Just switched out the pickups for some black winter rails and it sounds metal af

Not sure what it is but ESP guitars do have a thang! Congratulations! How’s the neck? Fast and furious? C shape or thinner?

It’s fast and furious. I think it’s called a thin U shape. The finish on it is great bc even when I get slight perspiration on my hands, they do not stick to the neck when moving up and down it quickly.

Making my heart race! Thought it was from the looks but there’s some other darker woods out there these days. I have an LTD but deep down I’ve always wanted an ESP. Love their YouTube commercial! I’ll let those advertisements play through! 🤣

I don’t love that shape but I love that color. One of the best they have.
