Carbon Fibre Reinforcements

Carbon Fibre Reinforcements

Carbon Fibre Reinforcements

Although properly selected wood does not require reinforcement, adding carbon fibre along with the truss rod adds an extra layer of security against bending and warping.

We design the CF layout carefully to get the best out of the effort.

Nut

Carbon Fibre Reinforcements

Carbon Fibre Reinforcements

All guitars include a brass or natural bone nut which will last decades without needing attention.

They also provide far better tone and sustain compared to plastic nuts.

Neck joint

Carbon Fibre Reinforcements

Set Neck with comfort carves, or neck thru.

Set neck involves more hours to build the same guitar but it offers greater resonance and better sustain.

Also who doesn’t love a seamless joint?

Scale length

Scale length

We usually use the following scale lengths but they can be customized.


6 String - 25-26"


7 String - 25.5" - 27"


8 String - 26.5" - 28" 


Multiscale

Scale length

Multiscale

Caracal Guitars started with the idea of providing the most ergonomic instruments.

They are designed to disappear against your body whether you are in the classical position or the casual position or on stage.

Multiscale fretboard adds to this ergonomic effort as the frets are laid out how your wrist moves naturally up and down the fretboard.

Neck shape

Scale length

Multiscale

After many iterations we have designed a neck shape that feels the most natural. 

It molds from the classic C/D shape on the first fret to a droplet asymmetric shape on the higher frets.

This feature along with multiscale design takes out all the guesswork your wrist needs to navigate the fretboard.

Bridge/tuner

Bridge/tuner

Bridge/tuner

Having used a handful of headless hardware like guyker, strandberg etc., I have found Nova guitar bridges perform way better. The brass saddles provide excellent sustain and thrust bearing makes tuning a breeze.

Pickups

Bridge/tuner

Bridge/tuner

I like to wind my own pickups because it gives me more freedom on tonal as well as aesthetic choices.

You can choose custom wood cover as well as 3D printed colours.


We can of course go for your favourite aftermarket pickups from brands like Seymour Duncan, Dimarzio, EMG etc. 

Fretboard

Luminous Inlays

Stage lighting is cool and a huge part of the experience for the audience, but what about the players?

Luminous inlays offer great visibility even in the darkest of situations. 


Fretboard radius - 16" - Can be customized


Fret material - Jescar 51100 Stainless steel
