Well, if you’ve ever considered purchasing one of ESP’s incredibly cool Eclipse IIs in Vintage Black, now might be the time to act. It looks like music123 has done away with their official “Price Drop” category, but as far as I can tell the Eclipse II is now on sale – currently going for just [...]
