Wired for sound
The two Caparison PH7 humbuckers in the 7 FM, coupled with a 3-way pickup selector and 4-way rotary switch, give you a dizzying array of tone-shaping options. The 4-way rotary alone offers some truly unique coil-splitting and parallel options. With this switch, you can split your neck and bridge coils, parallel each split coil between the neck and bridge, and parallel both humbuckers in full output! Simply put, you will have countless hours of exploration at your fingertips as you fine-tune and discover your unique tone and attack.
Incredible neck!
The 5-piece maple/walnut neck on the 7 FM features a Caparison soft “D” profile with an oiled finish. This smooth neck’s comfortable profile coupled with the ebony fingerboard offers incredible feel and response. In addition, the 27 jumbo nickel-silver frets provide stellar intonation when playing chords or lead. Signature Caparison clock inlays give this fingerboard a really cool visual vibe as well. Guitarists here at Sweetwater love this neck!
Tradition of quality
Formed in 1995, Caparison Guitars began with a simple goal: to design and build the highest quality guitars that leave players with the sense that each and every guitar was made for them. From the start, Caparison listened to countless players to find out what they needed in a hard-rocking electric. Using only the finest tonewoods, electronics, and finish applications, Caparison has won over countless players over the years: Adam Dutkiewicz from Killswitch Engage, Courtney Cox from the Iron Maidens, and Michael J. Romeo from Symphony X are just a few of the devoted Caparison players who go to their Caparison axe of choice over and over.
