Members maiden_fan Posted April 6, 2007 Members Share Posted April 6, 2007 Firstly this guitar is awesome, I just dont dig it. The neck is too thin for me and im not a fan of the scale length either. Priced at exactly what i paid, not making any money from this. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200097541946 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How long did it take them to get it to you from payment time? I'm broke:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members maiden_fan Posted April 7, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 7, 2007 Its thin like an old jackson, finda flat on the back and curved round. Im just sticking with strats, i cant find another guitar that fits me lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members satannica Posted April 7, 2007 Members Share Posted April 7, 2007 I don't get caparison. They're nothing special. Why's everyone got such a boner about them? TBH, I much prefer strats too. Its weird. The best playing guitar I had for a long time was my MIM! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its weird. The best playing guitar I had for a long time was my MIM! Well for me personally I find the Horus to be a comfortable guitar to play, the scale length does get a little annoying at times but it fits my hands better than most other guitars. It has its flaws (well thats not Caparisons fault, more EMG's for not making a single coil sized humbucker that sounds close to the 81/85 ) but for me its pretty close to perfect for my needs.

Members StringBreaker Posted April 7, 2007 Members Share Posted April 7, 2007 gibson scale I think, I dont see what the big deal is with these either but each to thier own Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members McFlerry Posted April 7, 2007 Members Share Posted April 7, 2007 Well that scale length is slightly unusual for these sorts of guitars and not what i'm used to. Seeming I have small hands its very useful, but the slight decrease in tension i'm used to makes it a little awkward at times. Finding a good balance with string guages was a little challenge but i'm starting to become quite satisfied with that way it plays and feels.

Members YK13 Posted April 7, 2007 Members Share Posted April 7, 2007 the only trade im up on is for cash. sorry man honestly I mean if you are looking for a guitar and you love fender necks this is one of the best for you! think about it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Megadeth7684 Posted April 7, 2007 Members Share Posted April 7, 2007 I can't believe that neck is too thin for you. You would love the Dellinger CA, the neck is massive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JamesPeters Posted April 7, 2007 Members Share Posted April 7, 2007 man honestly I mean if you are looking for a guitar and you love fender necks this is one of the best for you! think about it! I think the best for him would be a Fender, not an Ibanez, if he wants a Fender neck. I'm reasonably certain the scale length might not be what he prefers either (refer to his original post). Not that your guitar is bad or anything, but Fenders are still different enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members maiden_fan Posted April 7, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 7, 2007 Im buying an 89 strat plus with the cash, they just fit me best and i can mod them for whatever i want. to give you an idea gibson 60's necks are nearly too thin for me.

Members maiden_fan Posted April 8, 2007 Author Members Share Posted April 8, 2007 lol, thanks for the Ibanez offer, but a strat's a strat, and the Ibi has a floyd trem, which im trying to move away from as i never use it, I prefer to use my fingers for my vibrato.
