ESP E-II Eclipse & Marshall DSL100 Tube Head with 240-watt Cab: A Trophy of Tone
The stunning ESP E-II Eclipse guitar and mammoth Marshall DSL100 amp and cab are here, won by Nik Nocturnal for his standout, victorious performance on BangerTV’s Shredders of Metal.
ESP E-II Eclipse
ESP’s E-II line is revered for its marriage of top-tier builds and mass-market accessibility. This E-II Eclipse adds active EMG humbuckers and an ultra-fast neck to its tour-grade Gotoh hardware and premium mahogany-maple-ebony tonewoods, oozing with silver-bound satin style.
Marshall DSL100 Tube Amp Head & MX412AR 240-watt 4 x 12-inch Speaker Cabinet
With the 2-channel Marshall DSL100 amp head, iconic tube-powered character and contemporary tone-crafting flexibility collide. This 100-watt powerhouse features a suite of onboard sound-shaping tools, versatile MIDI-connectivity controls, five speaker outputs, two Master Volume controls, and the flexibility to operate in both 50- and 100-watt modes.
Not only do you get this tube-fueled tone machine; you’re also getting a Marshall MX412AR speaker cabinet. Loaded with a quartet of Celestion G12E-60 speakers, this 16-ohm angled cab supplies up to 240 watts of shimmering highs, fluid mids, full-bodied lows, and the massive clean-to-crunchy range of historic British character every Marshall player craves. Eagle-eyed fans of Nik Nocturnal are sure to recognize this amp-cab combo from Nik’s cover-song videos over the years.

NUX & Sennheiser Comprehensive Wireless Control
Seamless wireless performance is critical for explosive yet supportive onstage playing of the utmost expressive control. This is where the Sennheiser EW-D EM transmitter/receiver combo and the NUX B-5RC guitar wireless system come into play.
Sennheiser EW-D EM
The Sennheiser EW-D EM includes a dedicated wireless receiver and complementary transmitter, designed for use within the 520MHz–576MHz range (R1–6), supporting your sound with the uncompromising clarity of 24-bit resolution across a 134dB dynamic range. Moreover, the half-rack receiver comes with everything you need to get playing anywhere: rackmounting ears and hardware, a 12-volt power supply unit, all the necessary screws, and an array of universally compatible plug adapters.
NUX B-5RC Wireless System
Optimized for playing live with both guitar and bass, the NUX B-5RC 2.4GHz wireless system utilizes a sleek, resilient chassis to support NUX’s latest wireless-transmission algorithm, up to roughly 100 feet with direct line of sight, supporting four hours of 24-bit, hi-res audio at less than 5ms of latency. This all-around solution plays well with active, passive, piezo, and magnetic pickups, meaning acoustic-electric guitars and ukuleles are equally eligible for use — no buzz, no fuss.
What’s more, the sleek, smartly designed power case supplies up to 15 hours of battery life, which is displayed on the case’s exterior, alongside an ergonomically optimized interior that lets you stash charging cables, adapters, and other stage essentials.
