DL-1 Dave Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I find your lack of faith in Mansons disturbing. Haha! Yeah the email said it would take about 9-12 months. I was just curious about their procedure. So the DLs take the longest to build? Are you getting a DL-1 edition 2? How long has the wait for specs been?

Drth Ptr Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Are you getting a DL-1 edition 2? How long has the wait for specs been? Yes I'm getting a DL-1 edition 2. I finally heard back from Mansons today and I got some interesting news! They're offering another variation and calling it the DL-1R. Here's the info, please share your thoughts! We are pleased to also introduce a variation on the standard DL-1 following various requests from customers which reflects features of both the original prototype Manson DL-1 and the guitar used at Reading Music festival. This version is the DL-1R and features the same spec as the current DL-1 but with a kill button switch rather than a toggle, MBK-3 pickup and Fernandes sustainer in the neck instead of the P-90.nothing The DL-1R is available with the following options Z-Vex Fuzz Factory install OR MXR Phase 90 install (but not both). The custom machineheads are also available as above. Prices start at £3349 for the DL-1R version with Fernandes sustainer as standard. Prices for the additional circuits or custom hardware are as above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arcade Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 are you getting one? in my opinion... if it's the DL-1, then yes if it's the DL-1R, then no are you saying no to keep the spec the same as the Prototype? i know the FF is only used on a minority of songs bit that would sound meaty awesome on this geetar (DL-1R) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same reason I went for the custom hardware. Unfortunately I'm too scared to add anything else to it like rust_relic did with his Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcade Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 oh you puritans !! im not sure i can wield a massive collection of guitars as ive got keyboards, electronics and 2 drumkits too, my toy room is running out of space. If i was to have a guitar with a FF the DL-1 would be it, even more so with the DL-1R (i was going to have the MBK-3 anyhow, as well as the custom h/w). I dont deny the MXR phase would also be interesting.. just not as good as the FF (silly gimmick - yeah but no).. would love to play Fury with effects n all. as well as trying out SS.. as you say more in keeping with the original. That DL-1 with the GK midi kit, phase and FF (drools), that must be a tight fit TOO MANY knobs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rust_relic Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Also has the Piezo Bridge as per the original, only difference to the original is I have an extra Piezo/Magnetic switch where the pickup selector is on the original. The 3 smaller knobs are Piezo Volume, GK Kit Volume & Tone, also as per the original http://www.musewiki.org/images/Manson_Delorean_showcase.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3 smaller knobs are Piezo Volume, GK Kit Volume & Tone, also as per the original http://www.musewiki.org/images/Manson_Delorean_showcase.jpg both are things of beauty.. i see the GK midi strip is mounted slightly forward compared to original build on the manson pic. no doubt it's an extremely versatile guitar... just a bit of a bugger to keep clean without harming the finish.

rust_relic Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 The guitar face is covered in fingerprints and smudges, It would have been a total pain to try and keep it clean and pristine so don't bother! Very versatile, the manson pickups, fuzz and phase go through the killswitch and the piezo doesn't so can do lots of different combinations Matt played Plug in Baby on Top of the Pops with his guitar and didn't need a pedalboard! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGgePsf5ioc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arcade Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Matt played Plug in Baby on Top of the Pops with his guitar and didn't need a pedalboard! ..that was back in the days when there were no guitar techs doing the pedals too!! PiB got me %110 hooked on Muse, i knew then that they was going to be something special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
