The Seymour Duncan standard
World renowned. They are respected by guitarists far and wide for their unbeatable tonal range and immense quality. The Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge and '59 in the neck offer you a modern, madly powerful tone which can work with both clean and high gain settings. The JB in the bridge is ideal for chunky rhythm riffs, offering a fullness and aggressive bite which makes the tone explode with wild power. When the '59 is selected, you'll make every note you play glisten with bright harmonics and luxurious expression, allowing your lead licks to shine. No matter where you take this glorious guitar, its tone will always sound absolutely massive.
Born to perform
Play to your full potential. The ESP Eclipse 87 features a double-cutaway mahogany body for a totally unhindered playing experience. With easy access to the upper frets, you can play with ultimate freedom, and perform those scorching solos in style. No limitations. Just a guitar that’s crafted for your creativity.
Sleekness. It’s vital in the world of guitars. Especially when it comes to fast playing. Thankfully, ESP have incorporated a range of tonewoods that ensure you can play with supreme comfort and flexibility. A 3-piece maple neck is sculpted into a thin “U” profile, creating a feel that is just right in the palm of your hand. But the secret to the Eclipse's effortless playability is the macassar ebony fretboard. Ebony is renowned for its ultra-smooth surface, which is why it’s a favourite across countless ESP models. Therefore, your hands can glide up and down the entirety of the guitar’s scale in rapid fashion. More precision, no restraints
Hard rock heritage
ESP Guitars are legends of the rock music world. Established in Tokyo, Japan in 1975, ESP (Electric Sound Products) initially manufactured high-quality replacement parts for guitars already on the market. These replacements became extremely popular with rock guitarists, as many users noticed that the new parts, when added to their existing guitars, afforded their instruments extra power and aggression.
Noticing their new-found popularity, ESP capitalised and decided to use their expertise to begin crafting guitars of their own. Early models were used in the music of KISS and The Rolling Stones. As years passed, ESP's guitars became increasingly popular within metal and hard rock genres. Metallica, Megadeath, Slayer, Judas Priest, and Guns N' Roses have all used the immense sound of ESPs in their music. Quality, hard rock sound favoured by the very best in the business.
