Classic Eclipse design in mahogany and maple
The ESP Eclipse CustomBlack Satin electric guitar is characterized by the famous modernized EC design of traditional singlecut models, which ensures both its unique look and its incomparable playability. This is implemented using particularly high-quality mahogany wood as the base for the body and a curved top made of solid maple and finished with a tasteful multi-ply binding. Naturally, the neck made of Honduran mahogany has a classic Thin U neck profile to offer modern players with high demands on their own instrument a welcome basis for implementing the most delicate playing techniques.
Active EMG JH "HET" set
For the pickup equipment of this premium model, the ESP Custom store in Japan relies on an EMG JH "HET" set designed by none other than Metallica frontman James Hetfield. Consisting of two active humbuckers, the Set reflects the brute yet accomplished sound that has left its mark on numerous Metallica albums like no other pickup. The two humbuckers with elegant brushed chrome covers are selected via a classic 3-way toggle switch and have separate volume controls and a common treble control. The battery compartment on the back is particularly practical, allowing the batteries to be changed quickly if necessary.
Premium parts from Gotoh and TonePros
The fact that the ESP Custom store has by no means skimped on the hardware equipment is proven by the particularly high-quality selection of add-on parts in a uniform black nickel design. The combination of a TonePros T3BT Tune-o-Matic bridge and a Gotoh 510FA stopbar ensures the most direct possible resonance transfer from the strings to the body, and values such as Sustain and response have a lasting effect. At the other end, the instrument features six Gotoh SG301-04 MG-T tuning machines. With their keystone wings, these not only ensure the classic headstock silhouette of the Eclipse, but also offer a practical backlocking function that both improves tuning stability and speeds up string changes immensely.
