[/quote] A black speedometer? It looks great though really futuristic... must be really versatile as well, what are the controls? Quote

[/quote] Volume for each pickup, stacked bass/treble, a push pull for active/passive and a push pull split coil on the humbucker. I like my basses versatile.... obviously Quote

It'll be interesting to see how P bass it sounds with the P solo'd and how Stingray like it sounds with that massive humbucker solo'd. ... a bass for all occasions.

wateroftyne Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Ah, gotta love saucy photos from the Maryszczyk casting couch. I'm still at least seven weeks from mine. Assuming I stop changing the spec. Quote

Goes a little bit in the oposite Direction. "Reduce to the Max", or is it Active 2-Band? Anyway. Have Fun with your new Basses. Quote

Kev Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 Some of these are looking really nice, especially the all black ones. So what is the deal with this builder? Those showroom pics are insane, does he have the body/neck mass produced, buys them in and customises them to spec? Quote

That workshop has 100's of basses, has he just built up a large collection of stock over the years? Its rather impressive, but I'm also struggling to get how its possible! Quote
keefbaker Posted March 21, 2016 Posted March 21, 2016 I think, from what I hear, about 17 people. Quote
