ESP Original Series Eclipse Custom Purple Peel with Case

General

Dropped from the Original Series, the ESP Eclipse Custom has been hand-crafted by the ESP Custom Shop in Japan, where attention to detail verges on the obsessive. Basically, every inch of this guitar has been set up for the seriously demanding musician, so you can expect uncompromising build quality, the best possible materials and hardware, and supreme sound and playability. The incomparable Eclipse Custom comes complete with a form fitting case.

The ESP Eclipse Custom: High-Precision Engineering

The solid mahogany body has been finished with a maple top and a set-in mahogany neck with a deluxe ebony fretboard and classic 12 inch radius. This layout has been paired with a Thin-U neck profile and a narrower-than-average 42 millimetre wide nut to give the fret hand an immediately snug and comfortable, fast feel. Meanwhile, high-grade parts, including a TonePros Locking TOM bridge, a Gotoh Stopbar and Gotoh locking tuners guarantee solid and stable tuning and hyper-accurate intonation.

Versatile Sound

ESP has equipped the Eclipse Custom with a popular EMG JH 'Het' active humbucker set, which effortlessly combines the clarity and punch of passive pickups with the tight response and thick low-end of active pickups. As a result, the Eclipse boasts an outstanding dynamic response and, by tweaking the two volume pots and single tone pot, you can rely on a wide range of sonic profiles. In short, this ESP offering has way more on board than just blistering metal tone.
