ESP Original Series Eclipse Electric Guitar w/ Case - Cast Metal

The ESP Original Series Eclipse represents the absolute pinnacle of Japanese luthiery, meticulously handcrafted by master builders at the ESP Custom Shop in Tokyo. Dressed in a breathtaking Cast Metal finish, this premium instrument elevates the iconic single-cut shape with uncompromising modern enhancements, incredible natural resonance, and flawless attention to detail. At its core, the guitar features a resonant Honduras mahogany body topped with a maple cap, creating a rich tonal profile defined by deep, warm lows, a punchy midrange, and a crisp high-end response. The set-neck construction utilizes a high-grade 1-piece Honduras mahogany neck paired with a smooth, dark ebony fingerboard. Boasting a traditional 24.75" scale length, a comfortable Thin “U” neck contour, and 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets, this Eclipse delivers an effortlessly fast, fluid, and exceptionally durable playing surface built to last a lifetime. For absolute sonic devastation, this masterpiece is loaded with an active EMG JH James Hetfield ‘HET’ Set, finished in elegant Brushed Black Chrome. This signature humbucker combination pairs the clarity and punch of a passive pickup with the crushing output and tight low-end tracking of an active design, making it the ultimate setup for tight rhythm work and searing leads. The versatile control layout features independent volumes for the neck and bridge pickups, a master tone control, and a 3-way toggle switch. The hardware appointments are completely top-tier, selected for maximum vibration transfer and absolute stage reliability. It features a TonePros locking Tune-O-Matic bridge paired with a Gotoh tailpiece, alongside high-performance Gotoh locking tuners for rock-solid tuning stability. Rounded out with sleek black nickel hardware and factory-installed ESP strap locks, this Original Series Eclipse is an elite-tier instrument built for the most discerning players.
