Description
ESP E-II Eclipse QM STBCSB See Through Black Cherry Sunburst Quilted Maple Electric Guitar
The E-II Eclipse QM sits naturally in hand with its set-neck construction and thin U neck contour, delivering the kind of balanced, comfortable feel that rewards both precision and aggressive playing. The 24.75" scale and 22 extra-jumbo frets give you access across the entire fingerboard, while the quilted maple top with white multi-binding catches stage light and cuts through the mix visually. Built for gigging musicians and players who refuse to compromise between ergonomic comfort and serious tonal firepower.
Construction & Playability
Handcrafted at ESP's Tokyo factory, the Eclipse QM uses mahogany body and one-piece mahogany neck through set-thru construction to maximize sustain and resonance. The ebony fingerboard with extra-jumbo frets stands up to heavy use and delivers superior feel under aggressive playing, while the bone nut and thin U neck contour work together for both comfort and snappy responsiveness. The Gotoh locking tuners and Gotoh TOM bridge with tailpiece hold tuning solid through long sets and keep intonation locked across the entire neck.
Tone & Electronics
The EMG 81 bridge and EMG 60 neck pickups cut through with articulate high-gain clarity and balanced mid-range that responds dynamically across the full spectrum. Electronics keep it straightforward—two volume controls, one tone control, and a three-way toggle—so you spend your energy on playing, not navigating complex switching.
