Player's Perspective
Music Store Live is proud to offer up this Exhibition Limited Original Series Eclipse from our friends over at ESP. The Exhibition line of guitars that they make are obviously made for much more than just playing, feeling good, and sounding good. They're true works of art that are designed to be displayed and shown off as well. This is one of the most unique looking ones that we've seen and the burl top with the resin filled in leaves for a beautiful mix of colors.
Every year, ESP makes a handful of guitars that are just so over the top, in the best of ways, that you can't help but to take notice. The intricate inlay work throughout the fretboard is absolutely gorgeous everything from the woods to the hardware are treated with an artistic eye. The stained flame maple neck provides brightness to the sound and beauty to the aesthetics as well. The aged look of the hardware really ties this piece together. Craftsmanship is immaculate on this. The fretwork is extremely precise and playability is effortless. Loaded with a classic set of Duncan '59/JB Jazz pickups, the guitar oozes of classic rock goodness with a tone that is fierce and yet pays homage to vintage sounds.
For the guitarist who's looking for a truly unique piece, this is a great addition to the collection. You'll certainly never have to worry about running into anyone else with the same guitar as you.
