NGD - Caparison Horus in Tiger Eye

[stratjacket]

This arrived from Sweetwater about a week ago. Spent a good bit of time with it. I'm a big Caparison fan and have gone through a few and loved them all. I also have a Horus FX-AM in black. I love the smaller scale length (24.75) and feel. It sounds great. I normally change the Caparison pickups, but I'm digging these. They sound great with this guitar.

Sweetwater had a great deal going and it was just too good to pass up.
Body 3-piece Mahogany/Maple
Color Tiger's Eye
Neck 5-piece Maple/Walnut
Radius 13.77"-15.75" compound
Fingerboard Maple
Number of Frets 27, Jumbo, Nickel Silver
Scale Length 24.75"

Anyway, on to the porn. My cheap iPhone photo and the pro shots from sweetwater.

Oh that would have been sweet, of course they are better on the used market.

Awesome purchase...I'm a long-time Caparison fan, have had several of the older Horus models with the various sponge finishes. Was fulling expecting the amethyst to be my favorite of the new ones, but the tiger eye won me over, and it's killer with the maple board. Congrats!!
