The ESP E-II Eclipse DB is a high-performance electric guitar built for serious rock and metal players. Its set-neck design and 22 extra jumbo frets allow for fast playability up and down the rosewood fingerboard. The Eclipse DB is equipped with active EMG 60 and 81 pickups that produce tones ranging from warm and full to aggressive and screaming.

Mahogany Body Provides Power and Depth

At the heart of the Eclipse DB's tone is its mahogany body with a maple top. The mahogany produces a warm, resonant sound with rich lows and mids, while the maple adds clarity and definition. Together, these tonewoods create a balanced sound that's both powerful and nuanced.

Set-Neck Construction for Smooth Playability

The Eclipse DB has a set mahogany neck for superior resonance and sustain. Its slim, fast neck profile lets you fly up and down the 22-fret ebony fingerboard with ease. The set-neck design provides rigid support for the neck, allowing greater vibration transfer to the body. This produces a lively, resonant tone and slick playability that inspires you to push your skills to new heights.

EMG Pickups Deliver Iconic Metal Tone

EMG 60 and EMG 81 pickups have defined the sound of rock and metal for decades. The EMG 60 in the neck position produces warm, balanced cleans and crunchy rhythm sounds. Switch to the EMG 81 bridge pickup for searing leads and massive distortion. With a simple flip of the 3-way toggle, you can shape your tone from clean to overdrive and move between pickups during solos. These highly responsive pickups highlight the natural resonance of the Eclipse DB's mahogany body.

Premium Components for Superior Sound

From its gold hardware to multi-ply binding and pearl block inlays, the Eclipse DB is dressed to impress. But beyond its flashy aesthetics are high-performance features like Gotoh locking tuners for rock-solid tuning stability and a Gotoh tune-o-matic bridge for sustain and string definition. These premium parts help the Eclipse DB achieve a clear, articulate tone that cuts through any mix. The Eclipse DB blends style and substance for a premium instrument that sounds as good as it looks.
