Stephen Carpenter of Deftones has been acclaimed for exploring his own textures on guitar, helping to shape the foundation of the alternative metal genre. The newest version of his LTD Signature Series SC-608 Baritone features a striking Yellow finish, inspired by his ESP Custom Shop guitar affectionately known as “Chiquita.” Designed for extreme low-end range, this 8-string baritone guitar has a 27” scale and is typically tuned F#-B-E-A-D-G-B-E, making it ideal for heavy, extended-range playing.

The SC-608 Baritone is built with neck-thru-body construction, featuring a mahogany body and a three-piece maple neck with a Thin U contour for smooth, comfortable playability. Its Macassar ebony fingerboard includes 24 extra-jumbo frets and a 400mm radius, ensuring effortless access to both rhythm and lead playing. High-end components include LTD locking tuners, a Hipshot hardtail bridge with a string-thru-body design, and a set of Fishman Fluence SRC Signature 3-Voice pickups. A 5-way switch and push-pull volume control provide a versatile range of tones. This model comes with an ESP hardshell form fit case for added protection.
