While ESP first got started in 1975 as a small repair shop in Tokyo, it was really toward the mid ‘80s when our guitars and basses grabbed the attention of players around the world. The LTD ’87 Series are 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 shape, which is the basis of the LTD Eclipse ’87. This guitar offers neck-thru-body construction with a mahogany body and three-piece maple neck. The ’87 Series Eclipse models offer 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 TonePros locking TOM bridge and tailpiece. Available in Pearl White and Turquoise finishes.

The ESP SNAPPER-7 Brass Black is a Japan-built 7-string with an SSS Seymour Duncan setup and a compound-radius rosewood board — and the B-Stock unit knocks $920 off the MAP price. Here's what that savings actually means.
The ESP Stef B-8 B-Stock drops this 8-string baritone to $4,919.20 — a real discount on a serious instrument. Here's a focused inspection checklist so you know exactly what you're buying.
The C-1 FR-S Przym Vespid puts a Floyd Rose 1500, Sustainiac system, and Fishman Fluence Ceramic pickups on a mahogany body — all for $1,599.20 in B-Stock. Here's who it's built for and whether the hardware lives up to the spec sheet.
