heyjackk Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 so much sexy in one picture. did anyone else notice the sustainiac equipped ones have black toggle switches instead of the default silver ones that come with the sustainiacs? im wondering how much effort it would take to replace the default switches with black toggle switches considering they arent soldered to the board. they could've just spray painted the silver ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alibros Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 has he finally memorised the switches or will the labels come later!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonbrown Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 they could've just spray painted the silver ones they could have indeed, but then again the paint would chip off after a while wouldn't it? either way, the black switches look soooo much better than the silver ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 has he finally memorised the switches or will the labels come later!? I imagine those are put on by Matt's tech Though I do remember around the time the first batch of MB-1s was released, they were planning to offer replica labels. I don't think that ever happened though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Nah it'd mean having to sell CE-7 or something. I'd rather wait for a new one, especially if they are doing #carbon MB-1S' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbias12 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Tempted at the MB-1S. However, I need to sell my cracked mirror MoC (not the one currently on eBay). Plus if I bought the MB-1S my MA-EVO S would need to go as well... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 There´s always some guy somewhere. Like when I sold my chinese replica.. I think I remember that one, wasn't it black glitter? The shape seemed spot on Anyone got pictures of some of the really poor MB replicas? There's loads of them out there with mutant banana dildo horns on them but I can't find them!

The shape seemed spot on Yeah, the shape was pretty much spot on, although it felt a bit "scaled" up compared to the MBC. Best one. Built out of an old door. Free hand drawing from poor memory?

benj580 Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Very tempted by that MB-1... It was the dream guitar a while back but I have an EVO-S on order with a sustainiac and black glitter finish. Do you recon Mansons would be annoyed about about cancelling? I thought i was set on the choice but that has thrown a massive spanner in the works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackjackWQ Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 My MBK-2 came for my MA-1 Evo! Once again, any box I get from Mansons always seems to be labeled with a different, more exciting product. But inside is always what I order. And 20 minutes worth of soldering later... Love the sound of the pickup compared to the stock MA-1 pickups. Coincidentally, I know have a Seymour Duncan JB #forsale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mittle Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Btw. U guys think they´ll do refinishes on the DR-1? Not that much into the green and the large text.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 My MBK-2 came for my MA-1 Evo! Nice. Sustainiac next? I'm sort of tempted to put a black MBK-2 back in this one. It originally had one, but it wouldn't work properly with the sustainer. I'd have to find one that's guaranteed to work though. Sounds good as is, but could probably use a little more top end.

Ever consider a sustainiac? Or is it the same problem. And yep, sustainer is next on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
