From the listing
A signature model by Caparison, designed for Ace Shimizu, known as the guitarist for Seikima II The body combines a flamed maple top with a mahogany back, paired with a mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard. With a 628mm scale length and 24 frets, it offers a wide tonal range. The Trans White finish beautifully highlights the stunning grain of the top, and the guitar features a distinctive look with black body binding and unique position inlays. It is equipped with Caparison’s original PH-F and PH-R pickups. In addition to two volume controls and a 3-way selector switch, it features mini-switches for coil-splitting each pickup, offering a wide range of sounds—from the powerful tone characteristic of humbuckers to the distinct characters produced by coil-splitting. The bridge features a Schaller S-FRT II, making it suitable for expressive playing with a whammy bar. This signature model features a unique look and functionality that reflect Ace Shimizu’s meticulous attention to detail. There are chips in the finish on the back of the headstock, the body end, and various other spots. There is a scratch on the back of the body. One escutcheon screw is missing from the front pickup.
