However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

Key Features
Disover your playing potential. The ESP LTD Eclipse 87 epitomises everything a guitar should be - striking, stage-ready, and searing hot. Equipped with the sought-after Seymour Duncan JB/59 combo, players are gifted with a tone that flourishes in every aspect. The scorching characteristics of the JB bridge pickup unleash furious lead lines with ease. Whilst the more rounded, articulate nature of the neck 59 humbucker maintains definition and clarity even at high-gain. What's more - they can be coil split via a push/pull control, giving you an even wider sonic palette to experiment with.
So, you've got blistering tone. But how does it handle the modern stage? Well, an ultra-smooth maple neck is sculpted into a "Thin U" shape, fitting snug in the palm of your hand and preventing cramp. It's layered with a sleek Macassar ebony fretboard, letting your fingers soar across the surface and shred in effortless fashion. You can even incorporate screeching dive bombs and whammy effects into your playing, thanks to a classic Floyd Rose locking tremolo bridge. Because this is an axe that meets the demands of the modern musician, whilst remaining faithful to its '87 roots...

World renowned. They are respected by guitarists far and wide for their unbeatable tonal range and immense quality. The Seymour Duncan JB in the bridge and '59 in the neck offer you a modern, madly powerful tone which can work with both clean and high gain settings. The JB in the bridge is ideal for chunky rhythm riffs, offering a fullness and aggressive bite which makes the tone explode with wild power. When the '59 is selected, you'll make every note you play glisten with bright harmonics and luxurious expression, allowing your lead licks to shine. No matter where you take this glorious guitar, its tone will always sound absolutely massive.
Play to your full potential. The ESP Eclipse 87 features a double-cutaway mahogany body for a totally unhindered playing experience. With easy access to the upper frets, you can play with ultimate freedom, and perform those scorching solos in style. No limitations. Just a guitar that’s crafted for your creativity.
Sleekness. It’s vital in the world of guitars. Especially when it comes to fast playing. Thankfully, ESP have incorporated a range of tonewoods that ensure you can play with supreme comfort and flexibility. A 3-piece maple neck is sculpted into a thin “U” profile, creating a feel that is just right in the palm of your hand. But the secret to the Eclipse's effortless playability is the macassar ebony fretboard. Ebony is renowned for its ultra-smooth surface, which is why it’s a favourite across countless ESP models. Therefore, your hands can glide up and down the entirety of the guitar’s scale in rapid fashion. More precision, no restraints
Locking tremolo. It’s essential for any serious metal guitarist. How else could you incorporate such daring dive bombs into your playing? Thankfully, ESP know what’s required for an exhilarating performance. Featuring a Floyd Rose 1000 bridge, you can experience the freedom of creativity right at your fingertips. This locking tremolo system allows you to perform the most audacious of vibrato effects, with your strings returning to their original tuning. This way, you can have the peace of mind that your guitar is in tune, even after your insane whammy bar antics. An unforgettable performance, where inspiration flourishes.
ESP Guitars are legends of the rock music world. Established in Tokyo, Japan in 1975, ESP (Electric Sound Products) initially manufactured high-quality replacement parts for guitars already on the market. These replacements became extremely popular with rock guitarists, as many users noticed that the new parts, when added to their existing guitars, afforded their instruments extra power and aggression.
Noticing their new-found popularity, ESP capitalised and decided to use their expertise to begin crafting guitars of their own. Early models were used in the music of KISS and The Rolling Stones. As years passed, ESP's guitars became increasingly popular within metal and hard rock genres. Metallica, Megadeath, Slayer, Judas Priest, and Guns N' Roses have all used the immense sound of ESPs in their music. Quality, hard rock sound favoured by the very best in the business.
