ESP Custom Shop Eclipse Prototype guitar built for Doug Scarratt of Saxon! RARE opportunity to buy a major artist owned ESP custom prototype guitar built by the company's top luthiers in their best factory for about half the price of a new ESP Kirk Hammett Ouija guitar. This is an ESP Eclipse FR Floyd Rose Prototype built for Doug Scarratt of Saxon! It was used on tour by him as can be seen in many photos and also used to record on Saxon's "Battering Ram" & "Thunderbolt" albums!
With over 13 million records sold, Saxon are heavy metal royalty! As leaders of the new wave of British heavy metal, they had eight UK Top 40 albums in the 1980s including four UK Top 10 albums and two Top 5 albums. They had numerous singles in the UK Singles Chart and chart success all over Europe and Japan, as well as success in the United States. During the 1980s, Saxon established themselves among Europe's greatest metal acts. They are considered classic metal musicians and have influenced a number of bands such as Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer, Anthrax, Testament, Exodus, Overkill, Mötley Crüe, Pantera, Helloween, Running Wild, Metal Church, Armored Saint, Dream Theater, Dokken, Skid Row, Sodom, Celtic Frost, Bathory, King Diamond and Death Angel.
Out of my years collecting ESP guitars, I have never seen an artist owned Prototype come up for sale. New ESP Custom Shop guitars are this price here with new Kirk Hammet Ouijas selling new for around £13k...many of those made, but this is the only Saxon Eclipse Prototype! Own a piece of heavy metal history! The "Prototype" stamp is under the clear coat with the serial number.
