Minor light cosmetic scratches from handling and play. Any noteworthy blemishes or issues will be described and pictured. Works as it should.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou may know him from his days on keyboard and vocal duty with Ohio-born metalcore act Attack Attack! or — more likely — from his aggressive yet infectious multi-instrumental and lead-vocal deliveries across Beartooth’s decade-plus discography, but Caleb Shomo’s multi-hyphenate musical mastery has more than cemented the rising of his latest signature axe: the ESP LTD Caleb Shomo CS-II Phoenix. The eye-catching offset has been a longstanding favorite among OUR harder-rolling rockers, but this distinctive take has them raring to let this 6-string soar. Its dashingly figured quilt maple top complements an assemblage of mahogany and ebony, while unexpected and exciting tone-crafting options abound, thanks to the axe’s Seymour Duncan pickups. Having joined Attack Attack! at just 14 years old, with a long-running affinity to producing myriad shades of rock, metal, and electronic music, Caleb’s plethora of polymathic performances required a pliable, powerful guitar — one that could remain as versatile and sure of its aural identity, like Caleb himself. With ESP, it’s finally arrived, and this signature Phoenix is ready to ignite any studio or stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThough Caleb’s onstage presence is confined mainly to vocals, his work with Beartooth includes playing and recording all the band’s studio instrumentals, and his namesake CS-II Phoenix was built to accommodate this hard-hitting multimodality. Quilt maple tops a mahogany body, joined via neck-through construction to a 3-piece mahogany neck. Tonally, mahogany is revered for its rich, shimmering harmonics and overtones, with a well-balanced profile and plenty of projection that is amplified by the resonance of using it in both the neck and body. The maple top imparts warmth and brightness to your tone, with exacting note-separating capabilities that enhance the brilliance of the instrument’s foundational mahogany. Lauded for its enduring bell-like sustain and laser-focused power, a Macassar ebony fretboard caps the axe’s tonewood trio and is punchy and precise in every register.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ESP LTD Caleb Shomo CS-II Phoenix has a dynamic dyad of Seymour Duncan pickups: a T-style STR-3 Quarter Pound single-coil pickup in the neck and a Custom 14 humbucker in the bridge (developed exclusively for ESP). The Quarter Pound — Seymour Duncan’s hottest T-style single-coil — supplies a best-of-both-worlds sonic suite, thanks to its overwound coil and searing Alnico V magnets. Its glistening harmonics, saccharine mids, and P90-like presence result in immensely robust leads and chords. At the bridge, the ESP-exclusive Custom 14 humbucker is your go-to garrison of gargantuan sound. Working closely with ESP, Seymour Duncan’s aural expertise is on full display, marrying ultra-tight articulation and crystalline transparency with spectrum-spanning balance that screams with high-octane heat, without compromising headroom. The Volume knob hosts a push-pull coil split, unlocking single-coil sounds that let you conjure multitudes of chime-like transparency and vintage-inspired character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen it comes to his flexible musicality, sound isn’t the only realm of concern for Caleb and ESP, and the LTD CS-II Phoenix was built with the malleable playability needed to match the many methods and styles the instrument supports. Its neck sports a Thin-U profile, deftly merging speed and in-hand heft to ensure comfort and control with virtually any playing style. The body’s elegant contouring and treble-side cutaway serve an all-access pass to the 22 frets sprawling the 13.77-inch-radius fretboard. Moreover, the neck’s 3-piece construction not only multiplies the mahogany’s latent harmonic depth, but also amplifies the neck’s dimensional stability. This increases its resilience to warping and other environmental influences, making it a tour-grade road warrior. Finally, rock-solid LTD hardware seals the deal, with six-in-line locking tuners adorning the reversed headstock, giving you the peace of mind needed to perform at your most powerful.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBody Type:Solidbody\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBody Material:Mahogany\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTop Material:Quilted Maple Veneer\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBody Finish:Gloss\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eColor:Vintage Natural\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeck Finish:Gloss\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeck Material:3-piece Mahogany\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeck Shape:Thin U\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeck Joint:Neck-through\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRadius:13.77\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFingerboard Material:Macassar Ebony\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFingerboard Inlay:Blocks\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNumber of Frets:22, Extra Jumbo, Stainless Steel\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScale Length:25.5\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNut Width:1.692\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNut Material:Black Bone\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTuners:LTD Locking\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNeck Pickup:Seymour Duncan STR-3 Single-coil\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBridge Pickup:Seymour Duncan Custom 14 Humbucker\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eControls:1 x volume (push\/pull coil-split)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSwitching:3-way toggle pickup switch\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eStrings:D'Addario XL120-7, .010-.059\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCase Included\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe ship orders the following business day!\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are open Monday - Friday 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern Standard Time\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe respond to questions during regular business hours\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ESP","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48289843183865,"sku":"40720262001","price":1299.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1099\/9434\/files\/medium_ce23601c-a796-4987-ac3d-51c66c56a053.jpg?v=1776272393","url":"https:\/\/specialtytraders.com\/products\/esp-ltd-caleb-shomo-phoenix-quilted-vintage-natural-seymour-duncan-guitar-case-lcsiiqmvn-0441-used","provider":"Specialty Traders","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
