The Official MARUSZCZYK CLUB!

I swear, if Fender, Lakland, Sandberg et al. aren't bricking it right now, they should be.

Unf! That looks gorgeous.

It really is! I tried to combine all the things I love about my Steve Harris basses and my Geddy Lee, but without the weight of the Harris,
so the neck profile is similar to my MIM Harris whilst it looks a bit like my Geddy with the black blocks.

Looks stunning though.

Wow did you decide to go for an "Attitude" syle neck? Nice! God that whole package looks great.

Yeah I was thinking about styles of fret markers and they're my favourite! Didn't request any specific dimensions though, I'm thinking it'll be great whatever it is

Very well said. This might be slightly off topic, but, how does the Maruszczyk compare to your Sandberg in terms of build quality? I have a VM5 Supreme which I love. Going to order myself an Elwood 5L as a 30th birthday present. I don't doubt that it will be as good as the Sandberg, but thought I'd ask! Thanks.

I'll let you know when it turns up! I have a good while to wait, yet. But like you I am expecting quality to be more or less on a par with Sandberg, going by what I've seen and heard up to now.

VM Supreme ... mmmmm ....

Phwoar!! I went for the blank board too.

I'm tempted to call mine "disaster area". Points if you get the reference.

So you'll only be able to play it by remote control from orbit?

[Fisheth]

Just paid. Waiting for my shipping email now!

Hi Guys,

I am selling my Elwood 5 here if anyone is interested:

Got too many 5 strings and would like to order a Jake 4. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Thanks

Sent an email about that, didn't get a response. So will have to tell you when it turns up.

[allighatt0r]

The amount of variations in these customs is incredible! I bet he's chuffed to bits that WoT had such a good experience with his custom last year...

Looks like it could be mirrored with a cover over it?

[wateroftyne]

FWIW, they seem to come with placky film on the pickguards.

Peeling it off adds to the experience :-)

Exploratory email sent (and response received).

[pierreganseman]

I was at Adrian's headquarters yesterday. Very nice and passionate person....

Its a scary place to be : about 500 instruments ... Literally EVERYWHERE ...

I saw all of you guys new basses hanging on walls. Not played them of course. Wouldn't dare.

They did around 400 Customs last year and are already around 40 for 2016.... daaaaaaammmm

i recommend to anybody to go and drop by

Wow!

[Fisheth]

Mine is shipping Monday. Adrian is also going to do a video on it, which isn't quite ready yet. But here's the bass again if anyone missed it (I just wanted an excuse to post the porn again )
