JimboMansonMB-1 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Let me clarify: "everything but the Manson" in terms of guitars, so just the Gretsch and the Mustang. Gretsch and Mustang for Tonemaster? That's a deal I'd do any day. So...yeah. And James, I know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominic. Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 so just the Gretsch and the Mustang. So does this mean no more beautiful things from Jim and Vintage Fenders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboMansonMB-1 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 So does this mean no more beautiful things from Jim and Vintage Fenders? Not for the moment, no It was a short-lived beautiful thing. I actually really liked the Mustang, but getting used to the 22.5" scale meant playing the Manson felt like a baritone, so I need to keep my small hands used to a bigger scale...especially since the Elliott will be 25.5" too.

james90 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Can someone buy me a Piledriver tele bridge pup to put in my Classic Vibe please? ok edit: do you still want it to sound like a tele? because it loses a bit of the tele character with that pickup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord MFC Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 ok edit: do you still want it to sound like a tele? because it loses a bit of the tele character with that pickup Yeah, I know, but if I'm honest, I do want it to loose some of that tele feel in the bridge position, but keep it in the neck position... Also the bridge p'up is the only thing letting it down imho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowella Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Oh my I know what I'm buying once my winter job starts up. Very pretty. Anyone want to donate about £2000-2500 hooglebug's way on my behalf? I'm dreaming of a bass christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 perfect finish on that one. They seem to go for at least $10,000 now... What bass are you wanting Crowella? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crowella Posted May 26, 2012 Share Posted May 26, 2012 What bass are you wanting Crowella? A custom like his Sakura bass I posted on the previous page. Couple of the details I wanted/been discussing: - 2 Soapbar Nordstrand pickups - Active electronics w/ passive push/pull pot. - Rosewood fretboard. - Body and neck woods undecided, looking for something that'll make it sound warm - Chrome hardware - That purple posted, or perhaps metallic blue, still undecided. - 34" Scale. It was originally designed as 33" though but feel 34" is safe and home to me. - 4 Strings. Was thinking of 6 and possible tremolo system but that's bordering wankery This won't be until the end of the year. I have to save up for Europe in a few months and that will cost a lot. Still got the upright on the way too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
