This is a seriously striking Japanese Custom Shop Eclipse and one that feels every bit as special as the specification suggests. The Blue Red Graduation finish is the obvious standout feature, with the contrasting colours giving the flame maple top loads of depth and movement. The matching flame maple headstock overlay, white double binding and gold hardware complete the look brilliantly, giving it a high-end custom appearance while still retaining the aggressive identity of the Eclipse.

The specification underneath is equally impressive. Honduran mahogany is used for both the body and neck, paired with an ebony fingerboard, extra-jumbo frets and ESP’s Thin U profile for a fast but substantial playing feel. The EMG Het Set is a perfect match for the guitar, delivering a tight, powerful and articulate response with excellent definition under heavy gain. TonePros and Gotoh locking hardware, Luminlay side markers and immaculate Japanese construction round out a very complete modern singlecut. A stunning Original Series build and one of the most visually distinctive Eclipse finishes available.

Mint / as new condition. Overseas import example. Presents exceptionally well overall, with no noteworthy wear to mention. Supplied with its original ESP hardshell case, certificate of authenticity and strap locks.
