ESP Eclipse I CTM Electric Guitar - Vintage Black

ESP Eclipse I CTM Electric Guitar - made in Japan with the utmost care and attention to detail one would expect from ESP.

The ESP Eclipse I CTM in a stunning and unique finish is an absolutely gorgeous example of ESP crafstmenship. The finish, custom bindings and quality hardware makes this a guitar to stand out from the crowd.

Featuring 2 x EMG Pick Ups - the 81 in the bridge position is a high output pick up which is lends itself perfectly to lead guitar as it will drive tube amps fairly hard making it an excellent choice for power rock and roll and heavy rock.

The 60 in the neck is another exceptional choice for heavy rock styles with bright attack and high output the pick up allows the guitar to crunch through the mix on stage lending itself well to rhythmn playing. In fact, this is the same pick up as you'll find on James Hetfield's signature ESP models, and we all know that he has a HUGE sound.

In addition, the necks on all the Japanese ESPs are simply outstanding. The Thin-U shaped neck is as smooth as silk all round and the Ebony fret board is gorgeous and very very smooth.

The combination of solid tone woods, the quality EMG pick ups and exceptional build quality and attention to every detail make the Eclipse I  CTM a serious piece of kit. There is simply nothing more "ROCK" than this instrument.

Some of the special features of this ESP Guitar include:

GOTOH MAGNUM LOCK TUNERS
ESP proudly features Gotoh locking tuners on many new and existing ESP Standard Series instruments. Gotoh parts have long been the choice for many ESP instruments over the years. Gotoh's unique design automatically locks the string to the shaft while winding the tuning key (tuning to pitch).

TWO-WAY ADJUSTING TRUSS ROD
Most of our instruments are built using a 2-way adjusting truss rod. Unlike a traditional (single-adjusting) truss rod which is still commonly used on many other manufacturers' instruments, our truss rod is adjustable both clockwise and counter-clockwise. With a single-adjusting truss rod, once you loosen the nut all the way, that is it. You are left with no more adjustment – this can leave your instrument unplayable if the neck cannot be adjusted properly. By using a 2-way truss rod we have eliminated the possibility of that ever happening.
