Here I make a review on clean sound settings on the Capricorn guitar crafted by Abt Guitars : The Capricorn guitar from abt guitars (www.abtguitars.com) is a very high-quality instrument. Thanks to selected, well-seasoned woods, the semi-acoustic headless concept with multi-scale, the titanium truss rod, and the sophisticated pickups from Kinman, this guitar offers features that are only found in high-quality instruments. Most pickups are also based on old technology. Kinman has invested heavily in further developing the technology to produce excellent single coil and humbucker sounds, all without hum and volume differences.
A Fender VibraKing with two 2x12 cabinets was chosen as the amp. The sound is clean to slightly distorted. When striking the strings, the question is how quickly and directly the feedback returns. How does the guitar respond to the dynamics of the stroke, e.g., when striking the strings softly or more forcefully? How does the sound respond to finger picking or using a plectrum? How does it respond in single coil and humbucker mode with the various pickup settings? What warm tones and sustain can be achieved with different playing techniques along the entire fretboard? What feedback is generated with bending, sliding, tapping, touch technique, legato, etc.?
