Well, they don't make the Iceberg ones anymore. The only difference between that one and the new Frozen Sky TAT is that the new ones have a coil split rather than a mid boost. Old ones have creme binding as opposed to white binding on the new ones, and the new ones have cosmo black hardware instead of regular black. Nothing too major, they feel and sound almost identical. Bad news about ordering one though, Ikebe and Ishibashi can't ship Caparisons, along with various other guitar brands, to the US anymore. I got mine from them a few months back for $1650 shipped, but you're gonna have to pay $2400 and wait 3 months if you want one now. Guitar Asylum is the only option. I'd definitely say to get one of the ones on Ebay now while you can.

EDIT: Iceberg is more of a blue and white combination, as opposed to Frozen Sky which is more of a black and blue. Itaru has also changed the way he does the sponge finishes too, so they look pretty different now.
 
damn it, I think the Iceberg may be a bit too white/light blue for me......I wish there were more used TAT's out there :(

Each finish varies though, since they're done by hand, it's impossible to make them all look the same. The Iceberg one I had was darker looking compared to those two on Ebay. The price he has them listed for is awesome though. I sold my Iceberg one for $2020 and my Frozen Sky one for $2000...although I didn't want to sell the Frozen Sky. :aww:
 
so you think I should buy it and turn it for more $ if I don't like it?

You definitely won't lose any money on it. I think you'll like it too, the TAT's sound and play so good.
 
I dunno, I'm iffy on it...I really like to play on a guitar before I buy. Plus, on the pictures I'm REALLY not digging that finish.

You're never going to be able to play a TAT before you buy it. I'm telling you, they're awesome guitars and you won't lose any money on it. I've had 11 Caparisons, I know what they're worth. ;)
 
I know I won't lose $ it's the color that's keeping me from jumping on that deal.

It looks better in person. I know from experience that dude takes awful pictures of all the guitars he sells.
 
Price drop to $1650. Also, here's a short clip I recorded with the guitar...
