I really like my Horus, but when I got my TAT II, I was really in love. It is just about the perfect guitar for me, sounds great, plays great, 2 hums, coil tap, ebony fingerboard, etc... all the stuff I like!

The body on the TAT is quite slimmer than a regular guitar, and it is very comfortable. It's not too heavy, it's also neck thru (I would actually prefer a bolt on).

You're in luck!

The only problem is the price tag, plus remember: LIMITED.

That's why I either hope a) I snag one off the Bay b) I can pay for a Dellinger CA White!

Caparison's are great guitars. I've owned 18 of them and they all sounded and played great. Extremely consistent build quality. No duds like you get with most other companies. I don't think they feel or play like any other guitars really, except the TAT's are pretty similar to USA Soloists. The Horus and Dellinger have really unique neck shapes that are really comfortable IMO. I personally prefer the specs, tone, and looks of Caparisons over basically all Ibanez models. I owned a J-Custom before and it sounded like dogshit.

I suppose the question now is where do I get one.

eBay Seller: meestursparkle: Guitar, Musical Instruments items on eBay.com

That guy looks fairly reputable.

Also Megadeth, would you recommend dying the Horus fretboard darker? I don't mind the feel of rosewood, just hate the look of it.

That dude is basically charging the same price as Guitar Asylum. He is a good seller, but his prices are way too high IMO.

I've seen a few people dye the fretboard on the Horus, it looks good that way. I don't like rosewood either.

Where do you recommend I buy? I'm looking at a standard gold hardware Horus in Thundercloud.

I'd try emailing Ishibashi Music in Japan and seeing if they'll ship one to you. If not I'd wait for one to come up on Ebay.

that guy sell his guitars out of japan, he buys them and sells them to people in the usa and probably anywhere else. and most of the shipping chages are the same price. about $120 and some have $80 shipping.
