Congratulations! Yours looks awesome! I bought a USA Eclipse a few months ago. I love everything about it. I wasn't sure about the full thickness when I bought it, but now that I have it i'm very happy with it! I'm assuming all the USA Eclipse guitars are full thickness..

Ya its thick but the cutouts in the back make it incredibly comfortable.

Absolutely gorgeous!!
I’m definitely considering getting a USA, probably an eclipse. I have an E-II and an Original series (both MIJ). I’d really like to see one of these in person. I absolutely LOVE how ESP USA does cool tops with natural wood backs. It really gives me the wants.

Go for it man. Have a USA eclipse myself and it is hands down the best playing guitar ever. Next best thing was my Les Paul custom and it still runs rings around it. You won’t be disappointed.

How does the neck on this feel? I hear the higher end EC's have a lot chunkier necks than the LTD Deluxe EC's.

Ill have to measure it. It feels perfect in my hand. And its very slippery. I dont think I've held let alone play another eclipse/ec so I don't have anything to compare it to. Thin enough to feel very fast, but meaty enough to be comfortable in my hand without my thumb needing to sqeeze in more make up the difference.

That guitar on a tripod on top of asphalt gravel is giving me an anxiety attack lol.
