james90 Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Don't worry, I'll still be waiting for my custom by then. What's the turnaround time for the work on the bridge? Also, I honestly would need labels if it was my guitar. So many switches! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 What's the turnaround time for the work on the bridge? Also, I honestly would need labels if it was my guitar. So many switches! Well, he's got it now, but because he's got other projects he needs to do that he's being paid for now, it might be 2-3 weeks before he can do it. I can't imagine it would take more than a couple of hours to do the actual work personally but it depends how much he prioritises it and if he's actually got the materials he needs ready. Then it depends how long it takes to get back here. At least having planned the guitar out myself in such detail I know what all the switches do, so no need for labels for me. If you don't know what's connected to what though, then obviously yeah, they'd be useful, haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 So my guitar is works #015 I thought the works guitars were the one-offs that Hugh builds, and that this would be considered a full custom? how do you like it so far? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ross_gerry Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 hi all. It's been a while since i've been on here so thought i would say hey again I've managed to get my name down on a MB-2!! so excited also was wondering if anyone had any more info on this guitar as im very tempted to get something the same made Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funklord Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Nope, there's a nice looking red carbon guitar there to keep it company. And that other one I've been going on about, but I think that one's done. Already has the strings on. The carbon finish looks loads better in real life. much deeper And yeah it was great. I ended up getting lost the first time walking there a 15 minute walk took about an hour, but I still got there right when they opened. I didn't play many guitars to be honest. I gave the prototype MB-1 a quick strum (strangely enough it has the same string noise as mine), a tele I was considering buying, and the '79 strat. There was also my custom and E-62, but I only played my perfect E major chord on them. Was fun chatting with everyone there as well. Definitely want to go back in a year or two Could it be...

Phill Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Is yours the standard MA shape bobbles? Looks like the ass end is wide in that pic, maybe perspective. Looks good though! High res glitter shot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted June 2, 2013 Share Posted June 2, 2013 Could it be... My red carbon guitar! I'm not sure, didn't you order that only recently? This one looked like it was done but was waiting for the electronics. It was routed for 2x humbucker sized pickups, and a single volume control from what I remember Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
