They don't make the Angelus 22 anymore. Just the Angelus HGS and the Angelus HGS GM. You can find the 22's on places like Digimart and eBay every once in a while.
 
Does any other company make a similar guitar to the 22?

Well, to me the Angelus is like a combo of a PRS and a Les Paul. All mahogany, similar shapes, similar feel, etc.

The Angelus has such a distinct body, IMO. It's a subtle difference from the traditional, but that difference makes it stand out big time to me. It's got a PRS Custom 22 vibe to it, but it's got that subtle shape difference that makes me really dig it.
 
Yeah, I know what you mean. I like the body shape way more than a PRS. I can't think of any other guitars that have that shape though, unless you get someone to build you one.

I'd love to have the dimensions so I could have a builder make a similar body shape for me. Perhaps a Warmoth build? :rock:
 
I remember seeing a one off copy of an Angelus ACE on eBay a couple years back. It looked pretty decent. It was some brand or builder I had never heard of. I've owned and played maybe 5 or 6 Angelus models and they've all been awesome guitars. :thumbsup:

Oh yeah, I knew you've owned quite a few of them, being the residential Caparison man on RT :thumbsup:

I'd love to have one someday, sweet guitars. :rock:
