Orbit FX
(DISCONTINUED)A radical streamlined speed machine, the Orbit FX returns to the Caparison lineup as an evolved and unique take on the classic high impact stage guitar. A stunning amalgamation of balance and unhindered 27 fret access, the Orbit is the extreme shape you have been looking for - all the attitude and impact but with the superlative handling and screaming tones that you would expect from a distinctive and original Caparison.
The Orbit FX features the same neck through design as seen on the limited TAT Special models, which has the gloss finish of the body almost seamlessly fading into the oil finish of the neck. A fixed bridge and through body stringing along with Caparisons own design pickups makes the Orbit FX an inspired hard rocking power-house!
