Frequently asked questions
What's the main construction difference?
The Arrow NT uses neck-thru-body construction for maximum sustain, while the Eclipse DB uses set-neck construction, which typically provides slightly warmer tone with excellent sustain. Both deliver professional-grade stability and responsiveness.
How do the pickups compare tonally?
Fishman Fluence Modern Humbuckers (Arrow NT) emphasize articulation across the spectrum with versatile push-pull voicings. EMG 66TW/57TW (Eclipse DB) deliver aggressive high-gain with warm neck pickup response and coil-splitting versatility. EMG tends toward bolder high-gain character; Fishman offers broader tonal range.
Which is better for left-handed players?
The Eclipse DB is explicitly left-handed configured. The Arrow NT specifications provided do not indicate a left-handed version, making it suitable only for right-handed players.
What accessories or extras come with each?
The Eclipse DB includes Elixir Nanoweb Light strings and an ESP hardshell form-fitting case. Arrow NT specifications do not list included accessories, suggesting it may be sold as guitar only.
