ESP the Eclipse custom telecaster

Updated August 23, 2021 07:02

Hello,
I bought the guitar ESP the Eclipse custom telecaster. I really liked the guitar, so I wanted to have it. I do not know this model, I do not get anything useful on the Internet either. I do not know if all parts are original (middle pickup is certainly not original).
Please, if anyone can tell me more about this guitar.
Thank you.

Very nice. It's from the late 80s. In the jargon of that time the "Custom" at the end of the name means neck-through construction and/or 24 frets (it depends on the year.)

I don't have enough experience with it to know the body woods, but most of the hardware looks stock. I actually think the mid pickup is the only original one. I don't think they were using Duncans as stock on most production models.

Thread bump do you still have this guitar? Want to sell it?

I bought a used one and it looks like the magnets have been replaced and I can't figure out which magnets were the original

Hello!

I still think the same.

I wouldn't sell unless I got a nice sum of money.

I don’t even know how much that guitar is worth.
