I can't say enough about those necks... definitely my favorite profile of the guitars I have. That and the smooth unfinished back makes for some good playing.
And one more thing, what do those of you here that have a Caparison think about the stock pickups?

How does the neck compare to a SL-2 (other than the finish, what's the difference)?

As for the stock pickups, I changed out the single coil very quickly to a Dimarzio Chopper as the stock single didn't have much power and I had no plans to use the guitar for clean sounds. The bridge humbucker was OK, not great, and I've swapped it for an X2N.

I've got some of their literature from Namm and trying to decide on a model to pick up.. I see a bit of old Hamer Californian and Diablo model influence there in shape, design and the whole 27 fret thing.. I'm betting the neck are somewhere around 14" radius..same as the Schaller Floyd bridge.. that'd make it really easy to set the action extremely low.DiMarzio Endorsee

Thanks for sharing! That Angelus is really pretty! I'm trying to decide on pulling the trigger on a Horus or maybe even the Dellinger Seven.DiMarzio Endorsee
