A hard rock icon with Seymour Duncan pickups, Floyd Rose tremolo and mahogany body.
ESP first started in 1975, as a small repair shop in Tokyo, but toward the mid-’80s their guitars and basses started to grab the attention of players around the world. The ESP ’87 series features faithful recreations of this set of instruments from ESP’s 1987 catalog. Unlike the current single-cutaway Eclipse shape, the original ESP Eclipse was based on the TE archtop, which is the basis of the LTD Eclipse ’87. This guitar offers neck-thru-body construction with a mahogany body and 3-piece maple neck. The ’87 Series Eclipse models also feature a set of Seymour Duncan ’59 (neck) and JB (bridge) pickup set (with original style bobbins and a push-pull control to split the coils), and a Floyd Rose-1000 locking tremolo.
