I suppose they wouldn't want to risk cutting into the market for 'real' caparisons by straying too close to the £1k mark.

This will be interesting to see when they come to the UK and how good they are. I might have to duct tape over the name though.

There's nothing compelling to me about these though. They've got virtually none of the unique properties normally associated with Caparison. They're just superstrats with an elf shoe headstock.

What is "unique" about Caparison anyways, aside from the inlays?

Too much focus leads to tunnel vision
Too much faith leads to religion
Too much knowledge leads to confusion
Too many guitar lessons lead to jazz-fusion
