Markolinni Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Hehe, How i understand you.. I placed an order in beginning february, and have to control de GAS until April.. but its difficult I have already played with an elwood and it was so nice on confort and playability, that i went for a Maruszczyk bass, based on all the quality vs price payed.

Mike2tone Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Right mine has been ordered, could not resist when I saw this: http://www.public-peace.de/index.php/bass-guitars/maruszczyk/elwood/5-string/1409-elwood-l-5a-mapl.e-burl-custom140302 It should be here next week! Very excited, yet again I am a sucker for Polish basses! Quote
wateroftyne Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Mine'll be a while yet. :-( Honestly, the level of detail if been able to specify is incredible. Adrian has been so helpful and patient. Quote
Markolinni Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 mike2tone, That is winderful. Im not (very) fan of those type of woods (burls and buckeyes) but that all together is sweet Tell us what do you thing about it, and post some photos Quote
Mike2tone Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Yeah absolutely! I know what you mean about the tops, I got more classic colours covered with more traditional brands, and I like what independent manufactures do with rare woods like my mayones on my icon, so I loved this one when I saw it, plus the specs.

spyder Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Help me decide guys. I already have a fiesta red Jake which has a demarzio DP122 PICKUP and flat wound strings that sounds very heavy. I need a modern bright sound to complement the Jake. Which of the following would you choose... http://www.public-peace.de/index.php/bass-guitars/maruszczyk/frog/4-string/270-frog-beta-4a-graphite-black130349 http://www.public-peace.de/index.php/bass-guitars/maruszczyk/elwood/4-string/313-elwood-4a-fiesta-red120260 http://www.public-peace.de/index.php/bass-guitars/maruszczyk/jazzus/jaz-4str/288-jazzus-4a-pelham-blue130067 Thanks for the help.

Meypelnek Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 I'd go for the Elwood. Like the idea of having team both in fiesta red. The Glockenklang 2-Band EQ is amazing. Had it in my custom Jake 5 for a couple of days to test. Crystall clear tone. And I guess it really makes sense on a Jazz Bass! Quote

An Elwood with the same finish would be awesome. Quote
Mike2tone Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Yes the Elwood! Nitro finish is a plus for me. Those Delano are very tasty pups as well. I got some similar in my Jabba. Quote
Sibob Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Sorry if I've missed this, but how come there are so many in-stock basses? Do they just crack on with making basses if there are no orders? lol The Sputnik model looks lovely, very Fodera in vibe Si Quote
mcnach Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Ah, decisions decisions... Emailing with Adrian right now... Hard times for an impatient man: I can order something they have in stock and have it next week? or order something only slightly different that would be a *bit* more to my liking, and wait for a while (and pay a chunk more)... Hmmm. The difference is just the neck profile... a 4 string with a 40mm width at the nut and 21mm deep at 1st fret is certainly comfy and noticeably wider than a typical Jazz. But I'd rather have a 42-43mm wide one and slightly deeper too, maybe 23mm? If in addition I could get a glossy slightly tinted lacquered neck then it would be *perfect*. But... ah, what to do, what to do!? Quote

spyder Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Good to see you guys ordering new basses. I've just placed my order for the fiesta red Elwood to go with my Jake. It's in stock and will be with me in around a week. Quote

A Jake P/JJ with very slight differences from the one in stock I was looking at, but they are differences that will make me like it that much more. I'll post pictures in about 11 weeks Quote

edstraker123 Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 I love my 2 Cazpars- I have got them for sale to pay off a credit card debt but having read this post I'm going to take them down ! For the price I've found them unbeatable - utterly top draw workmanship. A frog headless next for me ! Quote
