    Yesterday I received my brand new E-II BB and am very impressed.  Straight out of the box it is great.

    Does anyone know for sure what strings came with the guitar?   They are just fantastic.

    Congrats on your new Eclipse.  According to the FAQ page, it should have come strung with D'Addario 10-46.  Great strings.  I have used them for years.

      I knew they were 10-46 because that's what I use but not the brand.  Too bad we don't know what exact string series it is.  Thanks for your reply.

        They're most likely EXL110s.  Some U.S. online vendors sell them for around $3.75 a pack if you buy in bulk (10+ packs).  I use them on my six 6 string guitars and EXL110-7 version on my 7 string.

        if you want to be certain, you can always send an e-mail to tech support at the ESP website or post request to the "Ask ESP" forum for verification.

          So, I opened up my case for the first time since buying the guitar a couple of weeks ago.  Inside the flap was an Elixir Nanoweb tag.  I must assume my new guitar came with those strings rather than what was posted by ESP on their FAQs.

            Mine did too. I've had 2 strings snap at the tuner in the 2 weeks I've had it. I replaced them both with the Elixir's and they feel the same.

                Wow, I hooped the strings were a cheaper series because of this I now I have quite a high standard.

                  Mine came strung with either Daddario or Cleartone or something...I like Ernie Ball's, significant improvements after changing strings and installing a new battery when guitar was new.

                    I now use Elixir Nanoweb 10-52's.   To me, the brighter, the better.  Who makes the brightest quality coated strings?
