ESP USA Eclipse Quilt Maple Dark Purple Sunburst
ESP USA Eclipse Quilt Maple Dark Purple Sunburst
Serial Number: US26101
Weight: 9.3 lbs.
The ESP USA Eclipse in Dark Purple Sunburst is an American-built, custom-shop-grade single-cut that pairs exotic looks with serious modern performance. Handcrafted at ESP's North Hollywood facility in California, it features a figured quilt maple top on a mahogany body under a deep, high-gloss Dark Purple Sunburst, with clean scraped binding that frames the body in natural wood — and the purple sunburst carries right up onto the cream-bound headstock for a fully realized custom look. At a substantial 9.3 lbs., it has the resonant heft that gives the Eclipse its thick, singing sustain and stage-filling authority.
The set-mahogany neck is carved to a fast Thin U profile (.805" at the 1st fret, .880" at the 12th) and capped with a cream-bound ebony fingerboard, pearl split-flag inlays, and a 12" (305mm) radius that flattens out for effortless bends and low action. It's loaded with 22 Jescar FW57110 extra-jumbo stainless steel frets — built for speed, big bends, and years of wear-resistant play — over a 24.75" scale, with a 42mm (1.65") bone nut for solid tuning and tone. The set-neck construction locks neck to body for maximum sustain and seamless upper-fret access, while a TonePros locking Tune-O-Matic bridge and tailpiece and Gotoh Magnum Lock tuners in black hardware keep everything rock-solid and in tune.
Powering the Eclipse is a Seymour Duncan humbucker set — a warm, singing Alnico II Pro (APH-II) in the neck and a punchy, focused Custom 5 (SH-14) in the bridge — a legendary rock-and-metal pairing that delivers smooth, vocal leads and tight, aggressive rhythm bite. Run through dual volume controls, a master tone, and a three-way selector — with a push/pull on the tone that splits the coils for single-coil sparkle — it covers everything from classic rock crunch and hard-rock leads to modern metal chug and cleaner, chime-forward tones. Whether you're a hard-rock or metal player, a gigging pro, or a collector after a US-made ESP with an exotic figured finish, the Eclipse Dark Purple Sunburst delivers. This ESP USA Eclipse (Serial #US26101) ships in an ESP hardshell case. Order today from Brian's Guitars, your authorized ESP dealer.
