They are beautiful just the same. I read your review ages ago, but what do you think of it now? I don't think I could part with $2k without ever playing one but man they are beautiful. It's incredible. Pictures don't do it justice. It's looks are amazing, It sounds out of this world, it is designed by talented geniuses, It NEVER goes out of tune however much you play it or hit the whammy system. It always stays perfectly in tune. I've had it 4 months and it is still in perfect tune as I test it every week to make sure. I'd advise anyone to try one out. The Horus had a bit of a wooden plank neck but the Caparison neck is perfection. Why was I stupid? One little lack of Concentration and its damaged badly. Why couldn't it have happened to my Parker Nitefly which is natural wood anyway and wouldn't have been noticeable. Life sucks like that. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I was thinking you'd taken at least a 3 inch square chunk out by the way you were describing it. Not the end of the world I dont think, if you still have the pieces that will clear up no problem!

I would think that would be easily repairable for less than that. Hopefully the quote will come down when they see the damage then I think I probably described it pretty badly I've sent them the pics so will go proper quote tomorrow. It's an actual Caparison dealer though so they will probably charge a bit more. I'm guessing they wont be able tosort the paintjob out though?
