The ESP USA Eclipse in stunning Cats Eye Marble finish takes their familiar single-cut look to new heights. The Eclipse has been a popular choice for those who play Rock and Metal and this version gives you the best of the best. Everything about this instrument is top tier. A pair of EMG pickups guarantee great tone while the hardware choices ensure it can go the distance. If you are looking for the ultimate Eclipse model then this could be where your search ends.

Fender Stratocaster after replacing stock pickups with a set of EMG SA/SA/85 active pickups and black pickguard
This is a Telecaster copy (with a Strat neck) that I rebuilt. About a year ago, I traded an old iBook that was sitting in the closet for this, so I consider it my "free" guitar. It had a terrible paint job and very non-Tele EMG pickups. A friend helped me plane and sand off the paint, revealing a nice darker wood (maybe walnut) glued onto a lighter back. For my finish, I just rubbed it with tung oil and finished it with wax. I replaced the pickups with a Rio Grande "Muy Grande" in the bridge position and a stock Tele neck pickup. I also replaced the bridge plate, then figured out how to rewire it (and burned my finger on the soldering iron) and intonate it, and now I have a working Tele! It looks and plays pretty good, though now I want to trade it for a new Gibson Melody Maker or an Epiphone Dot.
This was part of the showcase series in the 80's Gibson did. A 1984 model with ther blue finish and EMG pickups. She sounds and plays great.
You will not find to many of these guitars in the shape this one is in! Not only is a limited edition guitar, the Epi les Paul 7 string has had the EMG pickup upgrade as well as the electronics to give her a killer sound.
Featuring chrome tuners, Rosewood fretboard with crown inlays, 2 volume, 2 tone and 3 way switch, a mahongany body and maple top, set neck and chrome hardware. Made in Korea
This guitar is in excellent shape, plays great and its ready to rock. Coming in at just above 9 lbs, she is ready to ship!

Cool and deadly, this JCM 800 LeBurn Model is awesome. The Marshall 4210 is loaded with Groove Tube E34LS and a Celestion G12 25watt greenback, The Bottom sports an EVM 12L 250 watt driver. Massive sounds! The guitar is a Fiddleback maple topped vintage Tom Anderson Strat. The Bias on the amp is running slightly hotter (35mV) for a sweeter drive sound.
For this miniature transient public installation I wanted to push the boundaries of both legality and audio acoustics.
The installation used advanced weapons-grade acoustic technology procured from "BJ", a former sound engineer at a major defense contractor that shall remain nameless (okay, Raytheon) and the cement contracting work of “Vinny Two-Step” and “Sammy Poodle”.
My team managed to devise and then plant a small sonic time-bomb underneath the sidewalk outside of Rouge, an upscale, trendy Philadelphia restaurant catering to the beautiful people that’s infamous to some Rittenhouse pedestrians for the layout of its al fresco dining area (which in years past even someone as skinny as Nicole Ritchie would have trouble navigating through).
At the designated time, the sonic bomb would unleash its well-deserved fury – the great D.C. hardcore punk band Minor Threat’s “Complete Discography” played at roughly 150 decibels start-to-finish, vibrating the goat cheese and walnut salads right off the tables.
However, the device failed to detonate at the appointed time.
Apparently, the battery I used in the device was the dead 9-volt I had taken out of my Strat several nights earlier when my EMG pickups started to fail.
I learned two very valuable lessons here:
- Nothing great can ever be accomplished without great focus
- I need to finally break down and replace my EMGs with standard humbuckers.

Note to concerned parties: The above is entirely a work of fiction, except for the part about how in my opinion some restauranteers seem to think that when it comes to public sidewalks, we pedestrians are the nuisances…and also the part about my EMGs, which tend to eat up batteries much faster than they should to the point where I just want to rip them out and put in humbuckers.
