Description

Formerly known as the "ESP Standard" series, ESP's E-II instruments are expertly-crafted in Japan. The E-II Eclipse Full Thickness EverTune may be one of the most "complete" electric guitars ever made. It starts with a traditional full-thickness body, reminiscent of the most coveted single-cutaway guitars in history, and from there, it vaults into the modern era with features like multi-voice Fishman Fluence pickups and the acclaimed EverTune constant-tension bridge — allowing your guitar to stay in perfect tune!

Built at a 24.75" scale, the ESP E-II Eclipse features a set-thru neck for smooth and fast access to the highest frets. It also offers a Mahogany body with Maple cap, Mahogany neck, and an Ebony fingerboard with pearloid ESP flag inlays and 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets. The back of the neck is satin-finished for superb, speedy playability.

In addition to the black EverTune bridge with gold saddles, its components include ESP strap locks, gold Gotoh locking tuners with black lock wheels, and a bone nut. It also features a set of Fishman Fluence Classic Humbucker active pickups with multiple voicings that are selectable with push/pull switches on the tone and neck volume knobs — delivering everything from vintage "PAF" tones to beefy, overwound mid-range and tight, articulate lows. An ESP deluxe hardshell case is included.

Key Features

• Mahogany Body with Maple Cap — Mahogany is a rich-sounding tonewood that gives the instrument a warm mid-range quality, adorned with a plain Maple cap to bring out some top-end clarity and "snap".
• Set-Thru Construction — Yields massive sustain and enables smooth, unhindered access to the higher frets; especially with the contoured heel.
• Thin "U" Neck Profile — Lean shape is suited for performance-minded players who prioritise both comfort and speed.
• Ebony Fingerboard — Dark and silky material, featuring a 12" radius and 22 frets.
• X-Jumbo Stainless Steel Frets — Resistant to corrosion for life-long performance. Wide and tall fret-wire provides a quick response and effortless articulation when playing chords or single notes.
• Fishman Fluence Classic Pickups — These versatile multi-voice humbuckers serve up a host of inspiring tones. Voice 1 emulates a vintage "PAF" humbucker, Voice 2 is clear with a vocal mid-range, and Voice 3 harnesses the sound of a traditional single-coil.
• Evertune Bridge — An all-mechanical system that's designed to keep the guitar perfectly in tune! Features an innovative spring and lever mechanism for each string, with the saddles pulling in a way to keep constant tension and thus naturally maintain tune through all conditions.
• Gotoh Locking Tuners — Make string changes fast and simple, so you can spend more time playing!
