Overview

Ultimate comfort and legendary playability finely crafted in Japan.

The Caparison Apple Horn 8 is the pinnacle of extreme guitar design. The walnut and mahogany tone wood composite body helps to maintain that essential note definition needed when dealing with avant-garde guitar tunings. The highs remain crystal clear with a distinctive bell like midrange and the low notes are tight yet thunderous. The fast and comfortable hand finished, 5-piece maple–walnut neck molds comfortably into your hand making extended playing a breeze and fatigue free. Add to this the 27 fret True Temperament system on a select rosewood fingerboard and the exacting harmonics that this guitar produces sing out in perfect intonation. Includes hardshell case.
