Signature Guitar of As I Lay Dying’s Nick Hipa
The signature guitar of As I Lay Dying’s Nick Hipa, the Caparison Angelus-NH is a certifiable high-performance instrument. Its layered body is capped by master-grade flame maple, providing you with maximum tone and eye-grabbing looks, while a set-in neck adds extra resonance and sustain to every note you play.
Enjoy access to just about every humbucker tone on the planet, thanks to Fishman Fluence Modern pickups, while a comfortable D-shaped neck and compound-radius fingerboard encourage relaxed hand position and rapid-fire leads. Benefit from ultra-stable tuning and élite tone by way of the Angelus-NH’s 15-degree headstock angle, while Gotoh sealed-gear tuners and a Schaller R2 locking nut supply rock-solid tuning stability.
A Schaller double-locking tremolo rounds out this solidbody electric guitar’s high-powered feature set. The Caparison Angelus-NH is the perfect tool for Nick Hipa to execute AILD’s seamless blend of majestic melody, razorblade aggression, and fiery delivery.
Provides high-performance execution, sonic excellence, and attention-grabbing looks
The Angelus-NH was built for high-performance execution, sonic excellence, and attention-grabbing looks. Its layered mahogany/maple/mahogany body exudes a warm tone with unparalleled resonance that’s reinforced by extended brilliance, sustain, and an über-tight attack.
Gotoh sealed-gear tuners and a Schaller R2 locking nut ensure rock-solid tuning stability, while a recessed Schaller S-FRT II double-locking tremolo enables you to partake in serious whammy abuse without sacrificing intonation. Set-in neck construction adds extra fullness, resonance, and sustain to every note you play.
To top it off, a hand-selected, master-grade flame maple top and a mesmerizing transparent gloss finish add to this solidbody electric guitar’s undeniable allure.
Delivers a massive range of sought-after high-octane tones
The Caparison Angelus-NH’s Fishman Fluence Modern pickups churn out a massive range of sought-after humbucking tones, from modern active pickup sounds to high-output humbucking tones — a non-negotiable prerequisite for achieving AILD’s brutal chord progressions and searing, harmonic-drenched leads. Unlike traditional wire-wound models, the Angelus-NH’s Fluence pickups serve up a massive tone arsenal without noise or inductance issues.
What’s more, Fishman Fluence Modern pickups provide you with your choice of two distinctly different voices for each pickup. You can switch between smooth and civilized to ruthless power with a quick tap of the master volume’s push-pull pot.
You also get a push-pull on the master tone that activates a high-frequency tilt and a 3-way toggle for pickup selection. Metal-minded guitarists here at Industrie Music appreciate the large selection of high-octane sonic textures that are provided by the Angelus-NH.
The perfect platform for aggressive delivery and laser-precise technique
From chugging power chords to blistering high-register solos, the Angelus-NH’s compound-radius fretboard delivers the eminent playability that Nick Hipa demands when he’s onstage with As I Lay Dying. Its D-shaped neck ensures a relaxed, no-drag hand position, while its 24-fret, 13.7-inch to 15.7-inch compound-radius fingerboard fosters rapid-fire finger movement. A 15-degree headstock angle achieves optimum string tension for ultra-stable tuning and élite tone. From the first note you play, the Angelus-NH will encourage and inspire you to push your own limits.
