heyjackk Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 That's interesting, I always thought my satin black was on the heavy side. Couldn't imagine going heavier. (Thanks for the help on Instagram btw) My satin black feels really light to be honest! Might only be because the black glitter feels a bit heavier but having owned a strat, a tele and an SG - all very light guitars - only the SG was lighter than my satin one. Also no worries happy to! James that Copper guitar is so damn gorgeous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Gonna have to keep weight in mind for my next one I think Me too, but not so much for back problems (though my shoulder does get a bit uncomfortable after a while with heavier guitars) Did I already post this? The one on the right is the new one @jbias12, and the one on the left is one I sent in for a refinish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one on the right is the new one @jbias12, and the one on the left is one I sent in for a refinish. Love both! And I really dig the headstock on the new one. Did you happen to see anything that resembled an MA-007? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 I was originally expecting a matching headstock, but I actually like this a lot. Nice bit of contrast, and a nice transition with the rosewood fretboard Also saw my holey guitar, but I think you've all seen it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbias12 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Also saw my holey guitar, but I think you've all seen it Is that the one they posted that Tim is looking through? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Is that the one they posted that Tim is looking through? yeah It really shouldn't take over an hour to properly set this guitar up... but somehow it did. Also, picked up some of the Manson strings while I was there. I think I need to start buying these in bulk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 n00b question, but what types of refinishes will they do on an MA-2? Came to terms with the fact we'll never afford an actual custom. Right now I think it's really only the metal/copper finishes. I'm pretty sure anything gloss isn't going to be available for a while, but don't quote me on that. I don't see why they'd use the other rig for it, the distance from Glasto to Paris really isn't that far. Wasn't particularly focused on the Glasto broadcast though so not sure what he possibly did to trash it? yeah that. He threw it into the 4x12 - it was one of the many matt blacks that was thrown high into the air at the end of SS Preferred the painted neck that 00 had...

GarJov Posted July 2, 2016 Share Posted July 2, 2016 That's a beautiful looking neck though, I think I prefer the green look though. I wonder if Manson's would do a neck refinish in nitro with a tanned finish, like the 2012 Matt black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cider Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Right now I think it's really only the metal/copper finishes.

He threw it into the 4x12 - it was one of the many matt blacks that was thrown high into the air at the end of SS Preferred the painted neck that 00 had... Those are some nice wood grains though, but yeah, I like the green neck too. Did Manson have 01 and 02 in store on display? I'm curious what happened to those two. But yeah, looks like the numbers edition still haven't sold out. I can't afford one now, but I m afraid by the time I can the numbers would've been sold out and they would decide to not do a 77 run since support was weak for the numbers ed -> no green guitar for Cider ;__; Did you just get the green DR strap or both green and black? Also, he used the green guitar for Assassin, Micro Cuts and Agitated O_O He must really like it. Good [YT] [/YT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macaroon Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Fellow Fernandes folks; am I right in saying that having the having the cable jack plugged into the guitar will drain the battery, or is it just when the sustainer is turned on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonbrown Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Fellow Fernandes folks; am I right in saying that having the having the cable jack plugged into the guitar will drain the battery, or is it just when the sustainer is turned on? It drains it if you have a cable plugged in yes, it does the same to sustainiacs but it's not such a drastic drain on the battery like it is for sustainers.

That's roasted maple - I'm sure they could do a tinted finish, but not sure how dark. Fellow Fernandes folks; am I right in saying that having the having the cable jack plugged into the guitar will drain the battery, or is it just when the sustainer is turned on? Any time the guitar is plugged in, but I'd imagine it uses quite a bit more when the sustainer is actually on Did you just get the green DR strap or both green and black? green only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good [YT] [/YT] I honesty think that sometime in the next two years we'll see the MB shape made in the Czech factory in a standard finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heyjackk Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 Yeah he always uses it for half step down I think. I've actually warmed to how that one looks over time to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah this, the green looks tacky as hell too. I doubt he actually enjoys the green finish while playing on stage, it'd seem very distracting and embarrassing.

The black hardware will look perfect! Sticking with the chrome MBK-2? Or will that change too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, that's being changed. The one it has now is brushed nickel actually, but the new pickup will also be brushed nickel, but no logo and black allen bolt pole pieces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
