Bill Kelliher Eclipse
Bill Kelliher Eclipse
Felt compelled to post this after jamming on it for a few months, especially since I haven't seen anything about the ESP model (only the LTD BK600). Simply put, this guitar rules. It's the heft and warm endless sustain of a custom Les Paul with the playability and modern sensibility of an Eclipse. I can see why Bill moved from Gibson to ESP if these are the kinds of axes they're providing him with. Shame if you order one now they don't come with the Lace Sensor pickups, I think they're great. More oomph than what you'd get out of a Gibson without being harsh like high gain active pickups. The matte burst finish is cool too. I don't usually associate matte guitars with a conventionally attractive finish but this one really changes color depending on the light. It goes from the green burst the pictures show it at to a faded silverburst to a totally matte black.
Anyways, thanks luthiers at ESP. This thing is fucking awesome!
Thanks for sharing brother, that looks like an awesome guitar!
