Joining the Bill Kelliher Signature Series, the LTD Royal Shiva is based on a guitar that the Mastodon guitar king created with the ESP Custom Shop and used extensively on recent tours. It’s a completely unique double-cutaway body shape with an outstanding Silver Sunburst finish that extends to the back of the guitar’s body and neck, with white binding on the body, neck, and headstock. The Royal Shiva uses traditional set neck construction at 25″ scale, joining a maple-capped mahogany body with a three-piece u-shaped maple neck, per Bill’s personal specifications.
