Thinking of putting all black hardware on my vintage black ec1000 Not fully sure what to expect on what it'd look like after spending all the money So if anyone has done that already, or has an eclipse or w/e that would look very similar (if not exact) then please post images :) thanks

Think about it, the gold goes bloody well with the binding ect.
IMO stick with gold it looks pretty kickass as is and black may very likely ruin it.

Gold is a pain in the ass to maintain. But it does look nice.

I see what you're getting at but I put my brothers KH-602 black control knobs on it once and it looked sick :)

it's only a thought anyway, still like to see what it'd look like though :P

If anything, I'd change it out for the brushed gold like the ESP Standard Eclipse II rather than the shiny gold on the EC1k. I wouldn't, however, change to black.

Not sure. The ESP comes with Gotoh Magnum Locks, which I replaced with Planet Waves Trim-Locks. They were a direct replacement, no mods needed.
