ESP Eclipse 2013 - Silverburst

Hello, I'm gradually downsizing my collection and will be offering some very nice guitars. So check back regularly. I assure you that I've always treated all of them with the utmost care, as they were truly very dear to me. Now, however, it's time to part with them.

If you're interested in multiple instruments, we can certainly discuss prices. Otherwise, I ask that you conduct negotiations fairly. We can also meet in person here in Freiburg. You can also ask me about other instruments that I may not yet have listed online.

Here I'm offering my Made in Japan ESP Eclipse Alex Skolnick from the first series AS-1, dating from 2013. To my knowledge, this extremely rare guitar is currently not being offered anywhere else. The guitar is in top condition, practically like new, in my opinion.

This Eclipse differs from typical models with its full-thickness body, passive Seymour Duncan AS Signature pickups, and a medium U-profile neck, not the typical thin U. This makes the guitar much closer to classic Les Paul single-cut models, while offering modern playability. According to the serial number, this guitar was hand-built in 2013 at the ESP Custom Shop in Kiso, Japan; the quality doesn't get any better.

Anyone familiar with Alex Skolnick knows this guitar can handle everything from thrash metal to jazz.
