JimboMansonMB-1 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Is it possible for someone to get pictures of the back and sides as well? Or the specs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Is it possible for someone to get pictures of the back and sides as well? Or the specs? Calm down little one, it's not even been officially released The specs we already know for the most part, but as for the back and sides, they're painted - I assume it's the same silver metallic as the double neck and mirror X-Y Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Thats for fuzz, phase and custom hardware, I think the basic price is 2999 Thing is, the original had all three of those...you'd just be getting a guitar with a fancy finish without those. What do you suppose one with a FF and custom hardware would cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboMansonMB-1 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 What do you suppose one with a FF and custom hardware would cost? Assuming it's base price £2999, with Fuzz at +£400, Phase at +£150, and Custom Hardware at +£250 like the MB-1, then looks like it'll be £3650, which sounds like a reasonable guesstimate based on the price tag at the Show Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musclemuse00 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 you forgot the Phaser install cost Jimbo. Its a lot when u consider the orig was slightly cheaper and had acoustic saddles and a midi pup, I know sig bumps up the price and the orig was ordered 10 years ago now, still a lot with the effects. I dont mind 3k, most mansons with a nice finish cost £2600-£2800 so a couple hundred more for a moc is prob worth it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I think if I got one I'd try for piezo saddles at least, MIDI pups are fun but I think its something I don't practically need...not that I need an FF in my guitar either, but that's different And I agree, price is high but really not that bad for what you get.

JimboMansonMB-1 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Getting my mb1 next week so will have a go on it then (no ones allowed to atm due to reviewing) I'd assume it's basically the MB-1 with a FF and a Phase 90 instead of a MIDI pad, not much to review is there?

DarthWenus Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Thing is, £3000 for me is $4800 CAN for me. If I add all the bells and whistles, the total comes out to $6100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
