Macaroon Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I asked Adrian last week and he emailed me yesterday. They can do it, but they're so busy right now he can't quote it due to other customs needing to be finished as well as the MB announcement coming #soon! He told me to send him an email in 3 months or so to remind him. The quote was for: Copper MA "bomber" Mahogany body Hard Maple "soft V" neck Pickups: Neck - P90 Bridge - MBK-2 Zvex Fuzz Factory MXR Phase 90 Schaller 2 piece bridge Custom hardware That's where I'm starting with it. I'm sure there will be changes up until the build and throughout. FRX is still iffy. Sounds good, I'm not at a stage to be quoting anything yet, but very nice to know that they can do it. Also.... What is that neck pickup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackjackWQ Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Sounds good, I'm not at a stage to be quoting anything yet, but very nice to know that they can do it. Also.... What is that neck pickup? He said P90, probably the manson ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undecided on either the MBK-1, Mississippi Queen, or a traditional soapbar like in MB's bombers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm yet to try Manson's P90s so can't really add anything to their arguments! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottST Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I'm tempted to put a BK Supermassive into my MBC's bridge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I'm tempted to put a BK Supermassive into my MBC's bridge. I've only tried the neck supermassive, but the stockholms are great. Another BKP I'm liking is the juggernaut, but it's not a P90, so it's a soldano Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macaroon Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I'm tempted to put a BK Supermassive into my MBC's bridge. Is that the humbucker-sized 90? I had a look at them when I was thinking about a custom MoC before Vile came along. I suppose if you're after that flatter sound its a good shout. However, I may be missing something but I always found it odd going for a "super high output" P90 when you could just grab a beefy humbucker and be away with it.

I have a Sustaniac in my MA EVO-S and I had a Fernandes FSK 101 in my MoC before I switched it out for a Rio Grande Bastard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macaroon Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Not for this one. I have a Sustaniac in my MA EVO-S and I had a Fernandes FSK 101 in my MoC before I switched it out for a Rio Grande Bastard. How does the sustaniac compare would you say? My Fernandes is rarely used without the sustainer, and the harmonic mode squeeeaaaals like a bitch so I can only use it on jams with no #chuggz or pauses.

The Fernandes was fun, but like others have said on here, it pretty much blows as a pickup. The Sustainiac is definitely more versatile and can be used outside of the harmonic/sustain modes. I didn't have any of the issues others are having with the Fernandes when I used it, but I still prefer the Sustainiac by far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 as well as the MB announcement coming #soon! This is good to hear. Did he say anything else about the MB run? Or give any sort of time frame of when it would start? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All Adrian said is was that they're late on the announcement. No time frame on when they'll do it or what model(s) they're going to run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it just a little darker/heavier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just squeals like hell. Might be down to my FF clone but its still noticeable through clean channels. Very annoying for the Stockholm Syndrome 0-0-3-0-0 outro riff.
