I really dig that E-II Eclipse sparkle. Sharp weapon.
In a topic here recently we discussed active pickups and both Todd and I thought they sound best (as in more organic) with single-cut designs.
Pre-covid I played an Eclipse with EMG's and also a friend of mine bought a thin body Gibson Les Paul. Not being a Les Paul player, I really liked both even though the neck may be a bit chunky for some shredders (but not too thick either).
My luthier on the other hand dislikes them. Not about the quality or sound but says cause of the body shape you still have to deal with imbalance like a typical Les Paul and also their used values are pretty bad.
Also, there's prejudice to these designs almost religiously among many guitar players cause of the thinner body.
