Ltd Eclipse EC-400 QM See Thru Black Sunburst

An Eclipse Designed for Modern Rock in the LTD Range

The LTD Eclipse EC-400 QM embodies the "single cut" spirit cherished by ESP/LTD: a familiar silhouette, yet designed for contemporary music styles. This version emphasizes a balance between refined aesthetics (quilted maple top) and stage efficiency, with active electronics and performance-oriented components, ideal for those seeking an instrument ready to withstand rehearsals, studio sessions, and live shows.

Who Is the LTD Eclipse EC-400 QM For?

This 6-string electric guitar primarily targets intermediate to advanced guitarists looking for a reliable, responsive instrument that is immediately usable for high-gain sounds. The EMG pair makes it particularly suited for metal, hard rock, alternative rock, and modern lower-tuned styles, while remaining effective for precise rhythms and singing leads thanks to the warmer neck pickup.

Sound: Attack, Precision, and Sustain (Mahogany + Active EMGs)

The combination of a mahogany body and set mahogany neck promotes natural sustain and a dense low-mid response, typical of single cut formats. The quilted maple top adds definition and a clearer attack, especially appreciated when gain is increased. On the electronics side, the EMG 81 (bridge) and EMG 85 (neck) duo delivers a powerful and very clean signal: tight palm mutes, sharp highs, and controlled compression to cut through the mix, with simple and effective controls (2 volumes and 1 tone) and a 3-position selector switch for instant switching from aggressive rhythm to thicker leads.
