ESP LTD EC-256 Vintage Gold Satin

What we say:

At A Glance:

The ESP LTD EC-256 Vintage Gold Satin complete with a 3 piece mahogany set neck, and mahogany body is value for money that you just won't find elsewhere. The single cut, 24.75" scale length design clearly takes inspiration from a classic model, but it's the refinements that are where ESP really shine. With some well placed contours in the body and sharpened edges, the Eclipse is less 'clunky' than it's competition. The Mahogany body combined with the stable 3 piece mahogany neck provides all the thick mid range tones you need. With a TOM style bridge and tailpiece and two humbuckers, it's absolutely brilliant.

Features We Love:

LH-150 Humbucking Pickups

With this style of guitar, 2 humbuckers is the classic go to look. To really dial in a thick, creamy tone then you can't go too far wrong with these. For everything from distorted rock styles to warm cleans, these will cover it all. A coil split also opens up some single-coil spank too!

Classic Mahogany Construction

It's important to get things right on affordable guitars and ESP have done just that with this EC-256. A proper mahogany body, with a super stable 3 piece mahogany neck provides the foundation for great mid-range focused tone.

Slim, Fast Neck Profile

The Eclipse's slim shape neck is comfortable, but not so thin that it feels like there's no purchase. Somewhat a classic feature to ESP guitars, it will satisfy both the guitarist new to the brand or someone who is well accustomed to the sleek neck shape.

Highlights:

• Classic look at a snip
• Genuine mahogany body for mid range warmth
• Set neck construction for increased sustain and resonance
