An Eclipse in EC-II format: single cut DNA, modern approach

The E-II Eclipse EC-II belongs to the "single cut" style guitar family designed to combine a timeless style with a decidedly modern execution. Here, the mahogany and maple combination aims for a balance between warmth, sustain, and definition, while the Seymour Duncan electronics provide an immediate and musical response, tailored for both stage and studio.

For which guitarist and styles?

This 6-string electric guitar is particularly aimed at intermediate to advanced guitarists seeking a reliable, expressive, and uncompromising instrument. It excels in rock, hard rock, metal, and all genres requiring precise distortion, but remains very convincing with crisp clean tones, funk-rock, or modern blues thanks to a simple and effective range of controls.

The sound

The mahogany body provides depth, a nice roundness in the mids, and natural sustain, while the presence of maple (top and body elements) adds attack and clarity to keep chords clear even with high gain. On pickups, the Seymour Duncan SH-4 at the bridge delivers rich harmonics, excellent definition, and perfect bite for palm mutes and punchy leads. At the neck, the SH-1 offers a more open and singing register, ideal for fluid solos and thick rhythms. The electronics with 2 volumes, 1 tone, and a 3-position selector allow quick switching from articulate crunch to massive distortion, or to a full and dynamic clean sound.
