ESP Eclipse Custom Electric Guitar Purple Peel

The ESP Eclipse Custom delivers a thin U-contoured neck and perfectly balanced 9.0 lb mahogany body that sits naturally in hand, making extended playing sessions effortless. This Japan-made instrument from the ESP Custom Shop represents the pinnacle of single-cutaway design, reimagined for contemporary performance with meticulous attention to every detail. Hand-crafted by world-renowned luthiers, the Eclipse strikes the rare balance between traditional aesthetics and modern functionality.

Playability & Construction

Set-neck construction joins a Honduran mahogany neck with a mahogany body and maple cap, yielding sustain and tonal coherence across the fingerboard. The thin U contour paired with a 305mm fingerboard radius and 22 XJ (extra-jumbo) frets on an ebony fingerboard with ESP flag inlays provides immediate comfort and precision for both lead and rhythm work. A graphite nut and 24.75-inch scale complete a setup engineered for stability and playability.

Tone & Electronics

A matched pair of EMG JH "Het Set" active pickups (brushed chrome) generate clarity and punch with tight attack and controlled low end—the active design ensures consistent output and responsiveness across the full tonal spectrum. Electronics layout features independent neck and bridge volume controls, master tone, and a three-way toggle switch, giving you surgical command over your sound without unnecessary complexity.
