The Orbit has a design that deviates from the 'Flying V' shape by adding a curve at the left of the neck joint and an elongated upper horn.

Caparison design their own humbucking, single coil, and dual-rail humbucking pickups, which are produced by Gotoh Pick Ups[4] located in Nagano, Japan.

Caparison also design their own fixed bridge (produced by Gotoh Gut Co., ltd.[5]).
