Formerly known as the "ESP Standard" series, ESP's E-II instruments are expertly-crafted in Japan. And if you're looking for a truly remarkable single-cutaway guitar that's beautiful, versatile and exceptional to play — the E-II Eclipse is a fantastic option!

Built with a set-thru construction for unhindered access to the highest frets, this exquisite electric guitar offers a traditional 24.75" scale and a Mahogany body with a super-classy figured quilted Maple top. White triple binding accents the body and matching-finish headstock, while the Mahogany neck is satin-finished on the back for a fast and smooth playing feel. Its Ebony fingerboard features pearloid ESP flag inlays and 22 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets.

Additional premium components on the E-II Eclipse include Gotoh locking tuners, a Gotoh TOM bridge and tailpiece, ESP strap locks, and a bone nut. This guitar's sound is expressed via a set of direct-mounted Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker active pickups with black covers, controlled with individual volume knobs and a push/pull tone knob to select pickup voicings. An ESP deluxe hardshell case is included.

Key Features

  • Mahogany Body with Quilted Maple Top — Mahogany is a rich-sounding tonewood that gives the instrument a warm mid-range quality, adorned with a beautiful quilted Maple top!
  • 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 Modern Pickups — These versatile multi-voice humbuckers serve up a host of aggressive tones and are optimised for high-gain playing. Each pickup's second voicing can be activated via a push/pull function on the tone knob.
  • Bone Nut — Traditional, low-friction material minimises unwanted tuning slips and enhances sustain.
  • Gotoh Locking Tuners — Guarantee superior tuning stability and make string changes fast and simple!

Stuff About Electric Guitars

Electric guitars use magnetic pickups to convert string vibration into an electrical signal, allowing the sound to be shaped through amplifiers and effects. Key things to understand include body shape, pickup type, neck profile, scale length and bridge design, as these all affect tone, feel and sustain. They are used across almost every modern genre, from clean and expressive to high-gain and aggressive styles, making them one of the most versatile instruments available.
