D3adstar Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 pretty sure I'm just going to put the alloy plates on for now. Also, I was pretty surprised how the MB-1 prototype hasn't aged badly, and I'm sure that one has been played loads. Feel a lot less concerned about the finish on the MB-2 now Yeh the ali plates do look great and do you have an idea of when the MB-2's are going to be finished? Can't wait to see them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are definitely going to be amazing looking guitars for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazybobbles Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 think they got rid of the killswitch, there won't be the extra knob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are definitely going to be amazing looking guitars for sure no kill switch, and the X-Y is the same as the MB-1 (push button hold switch) the extra knob on the original was sustainer gain, but this will just have the standard internal trim pot for that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Just my opinion but I think the ali surround looks so out of place on the MB-1 there. Looks awful in my opinion. If you were going to change pickup surrounds and stuff too maybe it could work, but it doesn't match the body, the pickups, the bridge or the hardware. Black works fine. Don't see why the need to try and change it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic. Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I actually like that ali surround Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 I think polished or brushed alloy could work well, it looks more like delorean style distressed alloy in that pic though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on temperature, the worst thing is having it in the box and not opening it until it settles with the temp. So close I had mine when it was snowing (it started to snow when the guitar was handed to me) and yeah, Hnghgh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lozo Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I live on the hills of the town, luckily I'm not affected by the flood. But the shrine and "la grotte" are completely underwater (I live in Lourdes, some of you probably know it). That's unbelievable ! The level of "Le gave de Pau" (the river) rose of 5 meters ! @Bs I don't like Guinness haha ! Here we drink pastis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
