Caparison JSM Joel Stroetzel

Caparison JSM Joel Stroetzel

By 2013, Artist Signature Models, New Release No Comments
Caparison introduce the JSM – the long awaited signature model of Joel Stroetzel, of Killswitch Engage. The headstock design of the JSM is the same as an Caparison Angelus but the neck has the profile of a TAT model. Through-body stringing has been incorporated to cope with down tuning and heavier gauge strings. The tailpiece has also been very finely adjusted for the tension of each individual string and the bridge pickup position has also been adjusted to produce a richer sound. Hipshot locking tuners and a Graph Tech Black TUSQ nut are included for their tuning stability in harsh stage environments.

Caparison Angelus M3B Dark Ale

Caparison Angelus M3B

By 2011, New Release No Comments
When researching a new body construction for the evolution of the Caparison Angelus-HGS (Heavy Gauge Strings) our main goal was to add a rich sustain characteristic to the low tone and heavy sound of the existing model. After experimenting with different concepts we determined that ‘M3B Construction’ was the answer. Unlike the Angelus-HGS the bridge and bridge pickup position has not been modified specifically for heavy gauge string use / alternative tuning. Despite this, the Angelus-M3B can still accommodate heavy gauge strings / alternative tuning, making it more accessible for the versatile player.

The Dellinger-CA VW has a single volume control, placed further away from the normal position, and no tone control to give you more bite, presence and drives your amp a little harder.
