That's incredibly misleading. That's a standard series ESP, but with that title someone who didn't know better might be thinking they're getting a custom shop model. I'd change the title of this thread and the title of the eBay auction if it were me.

Actually this is what esp calls 'em. eclipse ctm, It's referring to the gibson les paul custom.

The CTM has the old horn and the 4 knob layout. Here's my old one

The CTM isn't available in the states anymore. The only real ESP models (not LTD) over here are the ESP Eclipse II and the ESP Eclipse Custom. I'm not ragging on him, just trying to save him a headache if some uninformed person buys it thinking it's a custom shop model and then has a hissy fit when they see 'Standard Series' on the back of the headstock.

Spot on my man. You mentioned the "old horn" what is that exactly ???

I put custom because I upgraded the pickup and "customized" the new toggle switch and controls. But it comes off as misleading I will reword it. Thanks guys!!!

Yeah just clarify I'm not knocking you or your guitar at all, it's a killer guitar. There are just a lot of idiots out there and these days eBay doesn't give you much protection as a seller. If someone filed a complaint it could be a big pain in your ass...even though most ESP fans know exactly what you're talking about.

Due to Gibson threatening ESP with a lawsuit, the Eclipse II models in the USA have a different cutaway and a different control layout than the CTM. If you'll notice the one I had has the traditional control layout (pre Gibson BS) and the one being sold in this thread has 3 knobs instead of 4 and a different 'horn' or cutaway. Both are great guitars.
