The Angelus-NH introduces exciting variations to the classic
Caparison Angelus-M3B design. With updates including a Schaller Floyd
Rose Tremolo system and Fishman Fluence Modern Humbucker Pickups, the
Angelus-NH offers a stunning range of sonic potential to suit the
recording and performance demands of the modern professional guitarist.
This
hand crafted guitar features a unique Mahogany-Maple-Mahogany (M3B)
body with a beautiful 5A flamed maple top. The result is a warm mahogany
timbre with extended brilliance, rich sustain, and tightened attack. An
additional fullness and resonance is bolstered by a Set in Neck
construction, with the aural nuances of the Angelus-NH extending far
beyond the rock and metal genres it was designed for.
A hand
selected master grade flame maple top finished in transparent white
gloss adds a sophisticated artistry to this guitar’s elegant aesthetic.
The maple fretboard features oval inlays which are part abalone and
acrylic black, a mesmerizing ornamental subtly to an element of visual
function.
The Fishman Fluence Modern Ceramic (Bridge) and Alnico
(Neck) pickup combination offers players a plethora of options ranging
from crisp, high output crunch and tight low end bridge voicings, to
round, smooth, and articulate tones in the neck position. The Angelus-NH
is the physical synergy of meticulous craft, quality components, and
passionate design; sure to become a staple in the collections of serious
players and enthusiasts alike.
“I am humbled and honored to
introduce the Angelus-NH as my signature model guitar. This instrument
is the perfect amalgam of masterful craftsmanship, creative artistry,
and sonic versatility. I am deeply grateful to Caparison Guitars and
their team of skillful luthiers who have channeled their many lifetime’s
worth of knowledge and experience into this design. For me this hand
crafted guitar is beautiful to behold, joyful to play, and delightful in
its expansive tonal glory. It is a work of art engineered for
professional utility. I look forward to championing its brilliance in
the studio and across stages all over the world.” – Nick Hipa
