ESP LTD Eclipse ’87 FR – Gloss Black
The 1980s saw a massive uptick in orders for the fledgling ESP Tokyo custom shop, driven in large part by stage-ready hard rock guitars like the LTD Eclipse ’87. The modern incarnation of this classic instrument remains faithful to the original in just about every way, right down to the neck carve and finish options. What really sets this T-style guitar apart are the upgraded Seymour Duncan pickups and Floyd Rose 1000 double-locking trem system, which give you ready-to-rock tone and performance from the very first time you strap on and tune up. The Eclipse ’87’s archtop mahogany body and maple neck-through construction ground you to your instrument every time you plug in and crank up. And with its 13.8″-radius ebony fingerboard, this guitar makes playing power chords and leads a total walk in the park. Push-pull passive electronics even let you access single-coil tones when chunky, funky rhythms and classic crystalline cleans are in order. Looking for a high-performance “T” with throwback good looks? Check out ESP’s LTD Eclipse ’87.
