NBD : MusicMan Classic ‘Sledge’ Sabre

[dub_junkie]

Bought this Sledge Sabre today which I’m going to alternate with my sunburst/maple Classic Sabre for upcoming band work. 
I’m thinking of a neck swap too and going sunburst with rosewood and maple with grey. Leaning towards that but will give it a few days playing them as they are first before deciding.

So glad to see your two Sabres together 🤩

Yes, would be nice to see the neck swap. I think it could work really well (sunburst and rosewood is the classic combination and the Sledge was also available with a maple fingerboard).

BTW, cool photo of the Sledge (photo 2), really shows all the different colours of the finish. 

Enjoy 👍

I love a good neck swap but do take heed of a cautionary tale of lost time 😂🤣

 

I’m an rather pleased with the results though as I’m sure you will be 🍻

I think a neck swap would be aesthetically very pleasing. Nice pair you have there (stop sniggering at back).

I couldn’t wait so swapped them last night and set them up so they’re both playing just how I like them. Overall I’m much happier with the look of both, just need a tort plate for the sunburst now.

Nice one. I think this combination looks indeed better. I would get a clear pickguard for the Sledge to really showcase the stunning finish!
