“It gets fuller when I pull it.”
-Danish Pete, 2021
Isn't it suppose to?
And when he doesn't 🤣
The Captain has been possessed by THE SHRED!!!!!!
It seems Justin Sandercoe did a good job.
That's some damn good lead playing from the captain there. Is he becoming a secret shredder?
I think he secretly practice everyday, probably 4 hours a day! Haha
Damm!!! LEE..you are getting better every week..both you and Petes tone is the best on the web
Swapped my LP for an Eclipse and have never looked back. Great guitars for the modern guitarist and significantly less back ache.
Nice job gentlemen....thank you for your partnership and support!!
Thank you guys so much for doing this video... nobody has a good regular eclipse vs full thickness comparison... nor even any good videos of just how the full thickness sounds!
Bringing back the infamous Lee lick in this one. Lol. I like it. Great intro jam you guys did really awesome with the more modern tones, even though I know it’s not your usual vibe.
"Look inside my cavity, it's a sparkle cavity". Yes, Uncle Pete.
Whooo hooo, naughty naughty! (Uncle Pete, lolz)
Can't believe they didn't catch that
Hi all! Great playing Lee and Pete! Looking forward to this!!
I've got 2 ESP LTD 1000s built in 2020. Vintage Black 81/60 EMG, See Thru Black Cherry with the James Hetfield EMGs installed, plekd and a tusq nut put in. Both now come with XJ Stainless steel frets. These 2 are impossible to put down
They are absolutely amazing. I have put my Slash Les Paul Anaconda and my PRS DUSTIE WARING CE 24 WARING BURST in the closet w/ humidifiers. That should tell you something. Great video guys. ESP worth every penny.
Have had multiple ESP LTD's. Even though there were some personal taste preferences that made me get rid of them, they were absolute stellar guitars.
I have owned basically every EC. From the 50 to the 1000. Monster of a guitar.
Great batch of guitars there. Stoked about the ESP takeover! Give me all the ESP! PS, unless they've changed recently, E-II's have veneers overtop of a maple top.
Lee! What an excellent jam at the beginning! Playing angry suits you!
Hey Lee great playing, nice to see from across the pond from NS Canada
Ya baby! I have 2 ESP LTD's, tele & a strat, awesome guitars and very attainable! The colour of the 101 is doing it for me, or a honey burst! Gr8 jam Gents! 🤟
I always tell people that if I ever got a sig, it'd be through ESP/LTD. I'm a Les Paul guy, but out of every major brand, ESP/LTD seem to have the best quality/affordability ratio. Love and effort seems to be put in every single instrument that comes from them.
Absolutely! I got a M-50 for free, one of the cheapest, cleaned it up, modded it and it's so good!
Nah lol.
How are the Indonesian LTDs?
@@Justafeller Well their prices skyrocketed especially the higher-end ones; I still like the LTD Eclipses since Gibson sucks now, and the thinner body on most of them compared to the real thing as well as the tummy-cut helps.
@@mindfall82 Some of their plain-looking guitars are good for modding but aren’t absolute shit to begin with.
Been playing guitar for over 40 years. I’ve owned Fenders, Les Pauls, you name it. My ESP guitar is among the best I’ve owned. It is a race car among electric guitars. What a snarl!
same for me
wicked play out and intro as well. Love it!
I love that purple eclipse. The world needs more purple guitars!!
And less pink ones
It's raindeer blue...
You have been practicing I see, Lee! Great work.
Bravo El Capitano !! Bravo !! ( Awesome as always Pete as well but we always knew you could do it )
Captain well done sounded awesome. Pete you rocked it out as well.
Great stuff, Lee and Pete!
Pat Heath and I will also be around this weekend, to answer any questions with Drew
Cool playing! The guitars are great!
Thanks for tuning in Filip. We've got plenty of ESP videos coming out over this weekend, so stay tuned!
I feel ESP have come a long way in recent years. should have brought back the wild stallions back for this video :)
They may return one day... ;)
@@andertons cant wait :)
Cool, another takeover! Loved the Ibanez one. Also, used to have an ec500. Was a really nice guitar!
There are so many great guitars being made today , it's the best time ever to be a guitar player. Option overload is not a bad problem to have when shopping.
So cool to see LTD guitars everywhere. I wanted to try out an Evertune bridge and could only find one on a LTD EC-1000 Deluxe. Best guitar I've ever played. Loved the neck so much I went out and bought the TE 1000 Deluxe (for single coil sounds and the same neck). Put my PRS SEs (2), Fender Strats (2), and my Gibson Les Paul into thier cases. Haven't looked back in 2 years.
Oh my god. How the Captain has improved his guitar playing the last few years, is just insane. From (sorry to say) quite boring blues licks just some years ago to the level he shows today is just impressive. I guess playing with Rabea, Danish Pete and Rob the last 10 years has made a massive impact. But a big request: don’t get to serious in the videos. It’s the playfulness, silliness, bad jokes and laughs which makes the show worthwhile looking at. More blindfold tests, more challenges of different types, and more fun😀😀👍
He is, after all, the Captain!
Preordered that E-ii Eclipse with the granite sparkle finish! It looks so good.
Great video, really enjoyed the jamming :D
Stay tuned for a weekend of incredible jams!
Now THIS is something special! LOVE IT! keep rockin 👍😍
I really like these Lee and Pete videos! You guys are a good match I think.
Anyone is better than ChappedBalls.
Welcome to Jazz Club! Brilliant chaps!
The sparkle one! That's a proper stage guitar.
Watching this video while holding my E-II EC is very satisfied and joyful
Great intro!!! Damn the boys can play !! Both your tone is NUTS!!! I'm SOLD!!! Great job guys!! Peace
Lee, your playing improved a lot. You're playing very well. I think all those sessions you did with Pete made you a better player :-)
Lee being that classic rocker is awesome. Maybe I'll look into ESP for a change.
I do have an ESP Eclipse (4 knob version) with Seymour Duncans from 2008. It doesn't get used much now, because my taste has changed more towards traditional Les Paul, tele and strat, but... If you're into heavier music - Eclipse is one of the best things you can buy. Mine resonates like crazy and goes into super sweet feedback when you need it. Pickups are very nicely matched - no problems with neck pickup having too much bass or bridge being too thin. So get yourself that granite sparkle E-II and you'll be happy for years ;)
The eyes of reindeer are blue.And my 70 yr old self is gonna buy that granite sparkle ASAP,because of you guys!😊
Ok, Lee! Damn, you're getting good. Keep it up.
Those EMGs sound so good after the fishmans. I'm surprised I'm thinking that. The Duncans are so sweet sounding.
Ended up getting lucky last year with a mint 2019 ESP E-II Eclipse in blue natural fade for $1200! I wanna preface with the fact that I was terribly prejudicial towards EMG pickups, but picked up that guitar regardless simply because of its looks and the killer deal. Let me tell you first off, E-II quality is second to none. I don’t usually prefer single cut guitars, and I DEFINITELY don’t prefer glossy necks, but that guitar still manages to be my favorite and most played by a fair margin. ESP and E-II branding aside, if you’ve wanted to try EMGs but are also put off because of the “shredders only” stigma they seem to have generated over the years, find a guitar with the “splittable” 57TW/66TW set and just give them a try. They are genuinely very dynamic and beautiful sounding pickups and offer great tones that are usable for just about any music you may play. I don’t usually go this far just for a RUclips comment, but if it can encourage even just one person to go out of their comfort zone and experience the same surprise and satisfaction that I did, then it’s worth it.
Yeah EMG 57/66 and Retroactive should be given a try to people not into the 81/85/etc. If anything, people can use the battery compartment and install Fishman Fluences if they wanted.
Gilmour recorded Dark Side of the Moon on EMGs…
@@PatrickBateman1337 the recording medium doesn’t matter. His live tone matched his recorded tone. Nobody mentioned tape or recording anyway. I think the tone of EMGs are fantastic especially paired with my ENGL fireball 100.
@@PatrickBateman1337 hahahaha awesome man! I’m with you I don’t understand the hate either. I’ve tried other pickups only to go back to EMGs they’re consistent and warm. I also love the solderless switching ability! Cheers bro!
@@PatrickBateman1337 love the name too lol I’m old enough to remember Huey Lewis lol
That reindeer eclipse! 🤩😍
That ashtray battery holder is so lol cool 😉😊 20:45
Looks like some nice flamed Ebony on the E-II on the left!
Bought a used EC Lemon Drop and have fell in love with ESP LTD! Best rocking and blues guitar I have! Have seen these guitars before but most were black or white so I never picked them up. Saw the Lemon Drop and met up with the guy who had it.From the moment it was in my hand and after I plugged it in , sorry Gibson , no need for a Les Paul now! I have found my guitar that I will play more than my HSS Strat , Ibanez Artcore 335 copy and my acoustic!!!! The Lemon Drop is good for what ever you want to play!!!!!
Loved this, a little late, but if anyone could fill me in as to what amplifiers you played through I'd be ever so thankful. Cheers
The Esp Ltd ec256 is a great guitar at its price point. Also the Squier classic vibe stuff is really good.
Wow! Captains playing has improved! Metal head!!👍🏼
Just ordered a full thickness Eclipse, it just came out so it's impossible to find used and even more so to find an older full thickness with 4 knobs so I bit the bullet. I wanted a Gibson Les Paul but my recent E-II Horizon from the same year blew me away and I already have Music Man, PRS, and Aristides on my wall. Wanted the Les Paul vibe and tone with modern appointments like the volute and the heel joint.
great looking axes!
does it drive anyone else crazy that the LTD series eclipses seem to have more/cooler color varieties than the more expensive E-II series?
My first car had those ashtrays in the doors! Very cool!
Im totally addicted to my E-II guitars...and i want more 🤣🤣
Please try an ESP USA Eclipse. I have just one, but I don't want to put it down. Get your own! Stunning guitar.
I just like how much Danish Pete is flexing his chug muscles.
I've got a satin lemon burst ec-1000 with the fishman pickups. I've had it over a year and love it. The only bad thing about it is the top is very bland on it. However, it plays like a dream and sounds amazing.
Are there any new lefty models coming for 2021? I love the Andromeda finishes
I've always been a traditional guy but I'm surprised how good these guitars sound. Maybe time to try something new. Nice demo guys.
watch the video on the ESP Japan shop. These guys are master builders.
That was some great guitar, chaps!
26:55 Sorry Lee, but E-IIs has a figured Veneer over a maple cap, it really depends on what you do to that veneer how it will pop
Nice guys yesss,great vibe mates 👌 😎 🙌 😀
That E-II Granite Sparkle is a fishing lure for humans
Pete your shoes are incredible in this video! What kind are they?
Hoping for a demo of the Ben Burnley signature. Really tempted by one of those.
34:32 Ola Englund would be proud!
i wish they still made the "Distressed" series Eclipse , preferrably with the full thickness and passive SD Pickups
Yes!!!!
I really dig that EC1001 when ESP/LTD first posted it. no reason to have pickup mounting rings anymore. direct mount all the way!
I think the e ii flame tops have a flame veneer on top of a thick maple cap. Esp isnt the most transparent.
Still love my ESP Eclipse semi-hollow from the 90s.
They're awesome. I have 2.
I just got my EC-1000 which has the Seymour Duncan and it has the pull/push knob. It's DEFINITELY a coil split, I am too familiar with the coil split sounds to not be able to recognize
I’ve been absolutely tonguin’ for the EC-1000 matte black with gold binding and hardware.. can’t bring myself to sell a fender though...
I bought on last week, you won’t be disappointed ! It’s plays and sounds like a dream 🤘
Just keep the fender and buy the ESP can never have too many axes
Get if you can, trust me you will not be disappointed, you will have a hard time putting the guitar down
ESP is putting out some great stuff - I haven't tried their USA series though
This intro was 🔥
Loads more on the way!
I thought the 60 cleaned up well, idk why you guys didn’t like it. It’s probably my favorite active for clean tones.
The orange E2 looks the best. The tobacco burst sounds the best. I’d probably buy the orange one. It’s like when I bought my 60’s LP standard. I preferred the sound of the 50’s but the 60’s fits me better for looks, feel, and the range of styles I play. I’ll agree with Lee if I was to buy a single cut and it wasn’t an LP, a McCarty 594 SC would be the one because I’m a massive PRS fan and that’s my favorite model. But my pockets choose Gibson. My nose does too 😂
That black sparkle one is killer
Great videos! Question about the EC-1001 and the EC1000T: are those veneers or full maple caps?
They're all veneers until the custom shop or USA line :)
@@SocksworthRiffs yeah even E-II are veneers.
I’ve found an affordable EC-400 in my local area and I’m thinking about pick it up, what am I missing out on over the 1000?
Better fit and finish mostly.
16:45 ESP/LTD should release more satin translucent finishes - it's the best and I don't wanna do my dull mod every time I get a new guitar :P
Since no one has said it ....I will....for the money....in single cut guitars....ESP gives you so much more than a traditional Les Paul. I have the amber burst Eii full thickness...and it is head and shoulders above my 60's Les Paul. It is more comfortable to play and imo better build quality. The fit and finish are top notch...and it actually stays in tune. If you like LP's you will love these. Well worth the money. The only place a Gibson Les Paul has the advantage is in resale value.
"It's a bit confusing, isn't it." It is, and what bugs me is that you can pay $150 for a student model or $1,500 for a beautiful professional-grade instrument and either way it says LTD on the headstock. If they're gonna split up the brands like that, couldn't they choose a more logical cutoff point for the "low end?"
that's how it's been with them, the LTD name was on alot of there guitars even back when i was in my last year of highschool 2003.
most people reference James Hetfield and Kirk Hammit alot, but what alot of people forget is ESP branded the name itself on the headstock, because it's a custom. Metallica started out with Gibson Les Paul and Explorer on the first two albums, once a band reaches a certain amount of success that's when players can get any guitar they want made. i don't know why they do it that way either, but you have to remember the way Japan deals with other Asian markets is different than the way we might. but not all companies do the same, Ibanez is a Japanese company and there name is on everything regardless if it's entry level to the most expensive.
ESP is the only one i know of that does things a little differently, but a few of the Eclipse models they showed here, they did reference that they are made in Japan. it's just that a separate team works on them, now to get the actual ESP name on the headstock you have to go to Custom.
Love that Andromeda Gold....
Love that for my hubby....
And I'll have the bass in that colour 😎
What song is that @ 23:23... those clean tones are great. Great player
That metal zone sounds FIRE
Selling some shiz, hoping to score a Granite Sparkle E2 with the 57/66 set this weekend, sold me with this demo.
I think all the 2021 LTDs come with stainless steel frets too now, right?
@@thegeargiveaway9118, That's great. Learned it the hard way. Got a 2020 Blue Fade EC1000 about a week before the new lineup was announced! Still a great guitar though!
Captain! What a good one!!! A
34:08 for a second there I thought Pete was going to launch into Slaughter of the Soul.
"DANE!!"
Good review Ive had a full thicc LTD EC400VF vintage finish since 2006. I went in for a Gibby LP studio but played the korean EC and its thinner neck, access carved neck joint, xtra jumbo frets, and stock Duncan JB 59 set blew the Les Paul away in tone and playability for less than half the price of a Studio. Still have it wont sell it. Also w earvana nut and grovers it needs no mods fret ends and polish perfect. I changed to an amber switch tip and amber reflector top Gibson style knobs and thats it thats all the mods it needed. Big alpha pots tone pros bridge need no changes. Unlike the crappy kluson plastic tuners sharp fret ends and and muddy 490R and T pickups in the $1200 Gibson vs the $550 EC400vf (prices in 2006).
it's funny I sold a Gibson LP Trad Pro from 2011 to Guitar Center to potentially trade in (was willing to take the resale hit) and I got a supreme lowball since they thought it had a repair (was bought brand new). Still today I'm hesitant to buy Gibson since even on Gibson forums in 2021 people still say they've had wonky qc issues. I do love Gibson 57/57+ pickups though.
18:35- EC lover :) worked that out! Good joke that… thank you
30:00 - 31:00 ok Captain, you got my attention there!!!
Best intro Ever!!!
I just got a Gibson 60s, but hot damn! I'm gonna grab one up now!
That kraken sounds beast
