Capurso Guitars is a high-end brand based in Italy that manufactures high-quality, handmade basses.
It is known to be trusted and used by many musicians, including Gabriele Costa and Giacomo Turra. (Titles omitted)
The instruments crafted by builder Andrea Capurso are consistently traditional, experimental, and musical.
He translates brilliant concepts into instruments with solid skill.
The Spiral is a work that takes Fender's traditional style as its base while incorporating more modern development.
This is a 24-fret, active, modern-style bass modeled after a JB type.
The body top features a striking Poplar Burl finish, giving it a very beautiful look.
The back is made of light ash and the fretboard is maple, a classic combination.
The tuning machines and bridge are HIPSHOT.
A global standard.
The pickups are Italian MAMA Pickups.
The acoustic design already ensures excellent balance of string vibration, and the pickups simply output a clear sound.
A truly beautiful design.
The mini-switch is a tap switch for the bridge pickup.
Tapping activates only the neck-side coil.
This makes the sound sharper and clearer than the powerful dual-coil setting.
Those who prefer a JB-like texture will likely prefer the tapped state.
The preamp is a 3-band EQ from Italian manufacturer Xander Electronics.
The frequencies are 30Hz for bass, 250Hz for middle, and 10kHz for treble.
The bass includes sub-band frequencies, and the treble includes presence components; boosting them results in a high-range and speedy sound.
The middle is slightly lower at 250Hz.
Rather than using it for cutting, actively pushing the tone results in a wide range while maintaining a bass-like balance.
In fact, Andrea Capurso, the builder of Capurso Guitars, was heavily involved in the preamp's design.
His philosophy is embodied in the design used in his own work, so the compatibility is naturally excellent.
The playability is extremely light, and the nuance of responding sensitively to even the slightest touch while resonating fully is very impressive.
While multi-string, 24-fret basses often tend to sound too tight, this particular instrument has an open and expansive sound.
The neck quality is extremely high, and to allow you to fully appreciate it, the string action is kept low.
This results in an ultra-smooth playability and a speedy sound.
A masterpiece that elevates the active JB-type style.
Please try it out.
