S2art Posted August 7, 2010 Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Hi!I'm looking to sell an immaculate Caparison Horus Yellow Sand guitar. For anyone not familiar with Caparison guitars yet, they are extremely comfortable modern guitars used by artists such as the Amott brothers (Arch Enemy), Adam Dutkiewicz (Killswitch Engage), Mattias IA Eklundh (Freak Kitchen), James Murphey (Obituary, Testament...) and Andy Latimer (Camel).I bought this a couple of years ago and I'm a little gutted I'm having to sell it because of student loans and general financial issues. It's in the same mint condition I bought it in, and has always been kept in the manufacturers hard case.I'm asking for 950 o.n.o (saving over 700 on new price) This link will tell you about specs, and the current price they are going for new: CAPARISON HORUS THUNDER CLOUD/GO - 1,675.00 : Cranes of Cardiff - guitars, drums, piano, woodwind, brass, stringsThis guitar is also pretty awesome because it has 27 frets. People may ask you why you need it. But I say just because.I have used Ibanez and Jackson guitars previously, and they just don't match up to the comfort and ease of play of these guitars.Pictures: Caparison Horus pictures by stuartgibson - PhotobucketCan be seen in Aberdeen or Fraserburgh. I'm happy to deliver to your door however.Further details reply here or email me on stuartmiccagibson@hotmail.comStuart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imprinted Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 Just an FYI - Mike Amott never used a Capa, only Chris. I had a nightmare of a Time selling my TAT-I on here and I was selling it for less than what you're looking to get for your Horus. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S2art Posted September 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 3, 2010 Bump! Decided to lower the price to 900 o.n.o. Saving over 750 on RRP.I can't really afford to lower it much more. This is a sweet guitar, very few people have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
