    As one of the best-looking, best-sounding, and highest quality single cutaway guitars ever made, the E-II Eclipse is made in Japan at the ESP factory, and designed for serious players who rely on their guitars for professional-caliber stage and studio work. This guitar offers a collection of top-tier components, like a bone nut, ESP strap locks, Gotoh locking tuners, and a Gotoh TOM bridge and tailpiece. Perhaps most impressive is its set of EMG 57TW/66TW set for coil splitting each active pickup with individual push-pull controls on both volume knobs. Built with set-thru construction on a mahogany body and mahogany neck, the latest version of the E-II Eclipse is available in three styles: a Buckeye burl maple top in Blue Natural Fade finish; a flamed maple top in Black Natural Burst; and a maple-capped Snow White Satin finish. All E-II Eclipse models offer high-end design features like multi-binding on the body, neck, stainless steel frets, and matching headstock, and include an ESP hardshell case.

    I just ordered this about two weeks ago and finally received it after a "long wait"but let me tell you it was/is we'll worth the wait, this guitar is a beauty. Sounds and plays so effortlessly that makes me want to keep playing. Before I ordered this I had/have the ESP LTD KH-602 and I love that guitar but I just wanted something a little better, a little more custom. So far it has not disappointed and it is a sexy looking guitar.

    My only concern is going to be trying to keep it clean and new/fresh looking for years to come.......

    .........So if any ESP techs are watching this review and can help me out on how to keep the body clean and/or what to use I'd really appreciate it!My ESP E-II Snow White

      This with gold hardware and JB/59 PUPS would be slick.

        I got this one for a year now, and it is my favorite! It is so versital in sound. Yes i do use it with a Line6 Helix but those team up very well. I was a little afraid that the white would get dirty very quickly but it is easy to clean without damage. A slight disatvantage, when using the push pull you will get a nasty audio click with a cracking noise.  But more important, it plays so fine, sounds so good. Certainly recoment is fot a kind of all round guitar player that like to get rauer

            Hey ESP,

            Do you plan on making an FR version of the E-II Eclipse?

            Thanks

              Hi, No plans at this time but that's not to say we wouldn't offer something like that in the future.

                  Hi, We use polyurethane finish. This one has a satin top coat.
