ESP E-II Eclipse DB Lefty Guitar in Green Sparkle
The thin U-shaped mahogany neck on this left-handed E-II Eclipse DB delivers an exceptionally comfortable grip for extended tracking sessions and technical passages, while the set-neck construction and ebony fingerboard provide the responsiveness and sustain that capture compelling recordings. Built at ESP's Tokyo factory, this guitar combines premium materials with meticulous craftsmanship to create an instrument capable of studio-quality tones across a range of session applications. The satin-finished neck back ensures effortless playability during long studio days.
Tone & Electronics
EMG 66TW (neck) and EMG 57TW (bridge) active pickups deliver versatile tones from warm, articulate cleans to aggressive high-gain sounds suited to multiple recording contexts. Each pickup features coil-splitting via push-pull controls, allowing instant tonal switching between humbucker and single-coil voicings within a session—an intuitive electronics layout with bridge volume, neck volume, tone, and toggle switch supports workflow flexibility.
Construction & Hardware
The mahogany body with maple cap and set-neck construction create a resonant platform with excellent sustain and note definition for recording. High-end hardware—including Gotoh locking tuners, Gotoh TOM bridge and tailpiece, bone nut, and black nickel hardware—ensures tuning stability across multiple takes and long recording sessions. The guitar arrives strung with Elixir Nanoweb Light strings and includes an ESP hardshell form-fitting case.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the set-neck construction and ebony fingerboard important for this guitar?
Set-neck construction glued into the body provides superior sustain and responsiveness compared to bolt-on designs, while the ebony fingerboard offers durability and consistent playability for fast technical playing. Together, these features deliver professional-grade tone and feel for demanding studio and stage applications.
How do the coil-splitting push-pull controls work?
The bridge and neck volume knobs each feature push-pull controls that split the humbuckers into single-coil voicings instantly. This allows you to switch between warm, articulate humbucker tones and bright, cutting single-coil sounds without changing knobs or reaching for a footswitch.
Is this guitar suitable for jazz or funk playing?
No; this guitar is purpose-built for metal, hard rock, and progressive music. The aggressive EMG active pickup voicing, high-gain character, and tight sustain are optimized for those genres and may not deliver the warm, clean tones jazz and funk players typically require.
What hardware and tuning stability features are included?
The guitar features Gotoh locking tuners, a Gotoh TOM bridge and tailpiece, a bone nut, and black nickel hardware throughout. These professional-grade components ensure tuning stability across extended playing sessions and touring use.
What strings and case are included?
The guitar ships with Elixir Nanoweb Light strings (.010 to .046 gauge) and includes an ESP hardshell form-fitting case for protection and transport.
