Description

The Caparison TAT Special FX "Metal Machine" Adam Dutkiewicz Signature guitar is a masterclass in modern rock engineering, embodying the raw, untamed energy of Killswitch Engage's lead guitarist. With its 5-piece maple/walnut neck and ebony fingerboard, this guitar ensures unparalleled playability, allowing you to glide through riffs and power chords with ease. The mahogany body and maple top combination deliver a resonant sound that's both rich and dynamic, perfect for both studio sessions and live performances.

At the heart of this beast lies a single Fishman Fluence Killswitch Engage Signature humbucker in the bridge position, renowned for its capacity to deliver scorching tones without the hum you've come to expect from traditional pickups. This is achieved through a cutting-edge design that replaces conventional copper wiring with layered circuit boards, ensuring that your sound is as clear and powerful as possible.

The guitar is fitted with 27 small stainless steel frets on an ebony fingerboard, providing impeccable intonation. Meanwhile, the Gotoh GE-103B-T bridge and Hipshot Grip-Lock locking tuners work in tandem to maintain tuning stability, even under the most intense playing conditions. Signature Caparison clock inlays add a unique aesthetic touch, ensuring that this guitar not only sounds great but looks exceptional too.
