Die japanische Firma Caparison hat eine wechselvolle Geschichte hinter sich. Gegründet 1995 von ehemaligen Jackson/Chavel Design Mitarbeitern in Japan, wurden Gitarren und Bässe für andere Firmen gebaut. Im Mai 2011 war die Firma dann pleite und wurde im September 2011 neu eröffnet. Auf der diesjährigen Winter NAMM Show zeigt Caparison nun 7 neue Modelle der C2 Serie.

Alle Instrumente werden von Hand gefertigt und liegen preislich in der Oberliga, wobei die C2 Serie etwas preiswerter sein wird, als die bisher bekannten Instrumente.
