So the bridge hole for the top string will not fit anything bigger than a 65 gauge. I tune in drop E, so I’m going to need a bigger gauge. Advice?

Hi Travis, I would try the 65 gauge first and see how it feels. IF it doesn't work for you, next step would be to contact Evertune and ask for their recommendation. They do make high tension saddle modules for different gauges of strings which may be necessary for larger strings. However currently I do not know if they offer a larger hole option but I will find out soon.

Hi Travis, please contact Cosmos at Evertune if you need any help. He told me their saddles should fit up to a .074 gauge and more recently then upped the size to .085.

What is the "actual" scale length on this?

26.5", 13-ish from nut to to center of 12th fret. 26+ish from nut to bridge.

Hi BBrowning85, Thanks for pointing this out. Looks like our spec listed was incorrect. The correct scale length is 26.5" Baritone scale (thanks Shawn A. for pointing that out). We'll update our spec on our product page.

How much do these beasts weigh? A six string single cut is heavy let alone an eight? 

Todd B. ESP

Hi Andrew, this model weighs about 10.5lbs. Keep in mind that weights vary so it could be slightly more than that sometimes. our 6 string Eclipses usually are around 9.5lbs or less.
