Caparison Dellinger II-FX HGS
		QTY:
The FX is the the incarnation of the Dellinger-HGS with a fixed bridge. The Schaller 456 fixed bridge features fine tuners, a luxury usually reserved for the floating tremolos. The result is outstanding stability with down tuning. The Caparison "always cool" looking Caparison Pro. Black and direct mounted PH-R bridge pickup assists in retaining and emphasising the tones and harmonics often lost on conventional guitars in dropped tunings such as Dropped B and Dropped C. Luminous dot positions markers on the fingerboard edge help to indicate the fret positions when on dark or dimly lit stages. *The Dellinger-HGS SE ships set up to Dropped B tuning.

The model itself features the heavy gauge strings (10-52) for tuning down, popular in the modern metal scene. The bridge position is mounted 3mm further along than regularly seen on other guitars; this is to help when adjusting heavy gauge strings to lower pitches. (On a standard guitar bridge saddles tend to be stretched back around the rear of their full travel to alow for correct intonation. In addition, the pickup position is changed in relation to the altered bridge position. The HGS eliminates the need for Drop C and Drop B players to shift baritone guitars in their quest for a properly intonated low tuned guitar. No need to adjust one's playing style to suit a longer neck and differently spaced frets. The Caparison HGS range has also proven reliable for regular tuning with heavy gauge strings and holds just as perfectly with "dropped" D tuning.
