Description

The ESP LTD Caleb Shomo CS-II Vintage Natural is a powerhouse of precision and style, crafted to meet the demanding needs of Beartooth’s frontman, Caleb Shomo. Built for dynamic performances and sonic versatility, this signature model delivers uncompromising quality and stunning aesthetics.

Key Features

  • Enhanced Tuning Stability – Neck-thru-body construction for enhanced sustain and resonance
  • Push/Pull Coil Split – Exclusive Seymour Duncan “Custom 14” bridge humbucker with push-pull coil split
  • Locking Bridge – Locking bridge and tailpiece for superior tuning stability

With its neck-thru-body construction and a premium quilted maple top, the CS-II offers exceptional sustain, resonance, and playability. The mahogany body wings paired with a 3-piece mahogany neck ensure a warm, rich tonal foundation, while the Macassar ebony fingerboard with extra-jumbo stainless steel frets allows for effortless playability and durability.

The CS-II’s versatile sound is driven by a unique pickup configuration featuring an exclusive Seymour Duncan “Custom 14” humbucker in the bridge, splittable via a push-pull control for expanded tonal range, and a Seymour Duncan STR-3 Quarter Pound single-coil in the neck for punchy, articulate rhythm tones. Gold hardware, a brushed black pickguard, and a locking bridge and tailpiece complete this visually striking instrument.

Perfectly balancing aggressive tone and refined style, the ESP LTD Caleb Shomo CS-II includes an ESP hardshell form-fit case for ultimate protection.

Natural

Natural guitars showcase the beauty of the wood itself, with finishes that highlight the grain, colour, and character of each piece. Favoured by players who appreciate simplicity and authenticity, natural finishes let the instrument’s craftsmanship and tonewoods speak for themselves. Whether it’s the warm glow of mahogany or the bright shimmer of maple, a natural guitar has a timeless, organic look that never goes out of style. These instruments often feel more connected to their acoustic roots, offering both visual elegance and a sense of purity that appeals to musicians across all genres.
