jonbrown Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 There was also this one. No idea what the price was - it seems like it's a standard MA-2 EVO with a refinish and no other additions Kill button Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heyjackk Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 There was also this one. No idea what the price was - it seems like it's a standard MA-2 EVO with a refinish and no other additions I like that. Think the next one I get will be without sustainiac and be as basic as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Pretty much, I would have thought aluminium plating would have been possible but I have no clue how they actually apply it. Not sure - I'm guessing it would be easier to do than mirror for example, but the body is still pretty rounded, so it might be a problem. I've only ever seen modified MAs with paint finishes either way. Lots of people seem to go for the holosparkle, but I'm pretty sure they're only doing the xenokroma and copperkroma finishes at the moment. I like that. Think the next one I get will be without sustainiac and be as basic as possible. I was going to say you should be more like Bs, but we have Macaroon. He's like Bs, but his posts have less cholesterol and they taste like irn bru... though I'm not sure what that has to do with ordering a guitar with a magic bridge. Is your next one going to be a full custom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is your next one going to be a full custom? I maaaaaaay sneak some stuff in there but at the moment I'm kinda just wanting a guitar without all the bells and whistles (probably change my mind in 0.24 seconds though ) Most likely yes. I'm going to probably pick up a Cort if I'm going on this tour next year for the lower heart break factor if it breaks and order a full custom around the end of this year/beginning of next year to be built while I'm away.

Dominic. Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Why do folk not like the kill buttons? I much prefer them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarJov Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Why do folk not like the kill buttons? I much prefer them Not sure, I much prefer a switch though. Button is a bit fugly but has its use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Why do folk not like the kill buttons? I much prefer them I think other people also view guitars the same way Jabnit did. As in, looks > everything else. Especially when you have red dice knobs on your chavocaster. Not sure, I much prefer a switch though. Button is a bit fugly but has its use. I don't have a preference really. If anything, the button is better since it won't require some servisol every few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heyjackk Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 I like to use the switch instead of having to turn the volume knob to 0 even though that is literally the epitome of a minor inconvenience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Don't worry, after the first one, everything after that isn't a big deal. Just ask Bs - he's just ordered his third guitar. The first one I had built to order was an MB-1, and not only did I have to wait nine months, but it vanished in shipping for 16 days after that.

Bs Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Yeah, even though it took about three times longer to get the custom in the end, waiting for the MB-1 was infinitely more painful, haha! I knew the custom would get there in the end, but the delay waiting for the MB-1 the first time round was dreadful, haha! I expect the months will fly by this time to be honest.

james90 Posted July 13, 2016 Share Posted July 13, 2016 Yeah true, but also, you don't really get any updates with the MB/DL guitars as they're done in a batch... I just know I was upset because Jim got his MB-1 first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna end up sending it back for a sustainiac next year after that I'm probably done with it. My next one would probably be the Cort made to look like those horrendous glitter holes guitars matt had made. Or just get another MA-2 EVO in a different colour, maybe copperkroma or something other wierd thing I find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james90 Posted July 14, 2016 Share Posted July 14, 2016 Speaking of holes, I like your new one James it's not ready yet. I did see what the final finish would look like though (on the headstock). Going for a sandblasted logo (just like Bs) but this might have been cool too http://www.mansonguitars.co.uk/#!untitled/zoom/c6gt/imagewbj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the final finish, then? Swirl? That's an interesting headstock. What would you call it - pencil? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
