Description:
...just to name a few. This should give you an idea of how RAD these Axes are! Hit this link to see the list in full on the Caparison Site (there are many more now...that are not yet added) http://www.caparison.jp/caparison-eng/e-artist.html Itaru Kanno is a very experienced guitar designer, he was involved with Jackson in the early days when Grover Jackson opened up shop in Japan. Now we all know those very high quality Jackson Pro. models that cut deep into the American market(but that’s another story) Itaru Kanno was also responsible for quite a few Jackson designs, the Grover Jackson Doug Aldrich and Phil Collens models included. When the contract between Jackson and Kyowa-Shokai expired in 1993(yet another fascinating story) Kyowa-Shokai and Itaru Kanno extended their partnership to bring about Caparison. At present Caparison are starting to turn alot of heads worldwide and are gaining a steady flow of endorsees, the likes of Dennis Stratton, Stevie Salas, Juan Croucier and bands like Killswitch Engage, Symphony X and Arch Enemy. Production is on a small scale estimated to be between 30~50 guitars a month, the craftmanship is on par with the BEST and are very high quality for dollar guitars. Apart from their more known designs Horus, TAT’s and Dellingers there’s the Angelus series, a more traditional looking ROCKER. Now I know what your thinking, Ahhh another Les Paul type thing? Well this ones got an ace up its sleeve! When the 3 way selector is in the middle position, it engages the 4 way rotary switch, splitting and combining the pick-ups for an amazing array of sounds, not found to this extent in any popular brand we know of.(more info from Caparison). This is where Caparison and the innovative Itaru Kanno differ from the rest. With such an array of sounds the Angelus22 stretches all but few music styles, Rock, Blues, Jazz we had no problems getting these sounds and with more experimentation even more. The Angelus22 has a very grown up, comfortable, sturdy feeling, the Caparison BH3-n and BH3-b pickups with the Mahogany have a warm, rich sound and this has looooonng sustain. On a personal note, I have had many Big Ticket Sell-out Named USA & Japan Guitars.... (PRS, USA GIBSON, JAP TOKAI, USA Washburn, Japan Ibanez, Fender...to name a few) A lot of them were beautiful guitars, I loved the PRS 1995 24 & the Japan Tokai Les Paul.... But, I actually sold them all one by one after I played my first Caparison! I am only selling the Angelus 22 to get another Angelus 22....its just that I have been looking for a black one for some time....now I have found it, I need to sell this Cap to get the Black Cap. Crazy I know....but its Caparison Forever now! There is NO other Guitar more Versatile (that I have found) that is true to rich tone & quality woods as the Caparison Angelus 22. With its unique switching system & Original Caparison pickups thisis the Bee's Knee's of the Guitar World, that I have found in my Tone Quests. It is not a very Weighty guitar & balances perfectly on your Lap ( not like any of the Weighty Les Pauls I have had) & with a Strap. The Heel-Less neck joint is super sweet & gives you full easy access up the top frets for shredding it up! Kind of rare to find on "Other" similar model guitars. Its got all the Sounds I could get out of my PRS...Plus more!

Honestly, These are an amazing guitar & I can never go back to any of the Axes I had before ( so I'm getting another one, I'm addicted ;-) RRP in Australia is $3595.AUD (the only Capa Dealership is Currently SOLD OUT of this Model) Specs: Controls are derived from the original Angelus rotary switch mode, coupled with 2-volume controls, the Angelus 22 is capable of a wide variety of tones.
I have NEVER offered a guarantee like this before... Had a LOT of interest in this Beauty...at this Price...Get in early & don't let this one get away!

Also, it states that "Domestic Post does not allow or offer Insurance" Well I worked for Australia Post & it DOES offer insurance with Registered Post. Please email post code for postage quote. After auction, please wait for the postage total. This way you will not get over quoted by the "ebay postage Guestimation" |
