If you don't get a response by Tuesday or Wednesday (Monday's a holiday), you might want to start a new thread with this question, which will give it a better chance of being seen by someone from EBMM.

the SUB 1 with locking tuners doesnt have the nut so how do i lock them??

 

[MikeVt]

Huh? A locking nut is significantly different from locking tuners. Locking nuts usually come on Floyd equipped guitars and they hold the strings firm right at the nut so you can whammy away without going out of tune. Locking tuners lock the strings in the tuner post so you don't need any string winds around the post - also adding additional tuning stability. The SUB locking tuners are different from on other EBMMs - and they only came on trem equipped SUBs. To unlock/lock them, you turn the top of the post with a screwdriver.

Does that help? If not, provide a few more details and we'll see if we can help...

Yesterday I did some home recording with my SUB1. My Silo had a broken string and I wanted to lay down some scratch tracks while they were still in my head. It sounds great, better than I thought it would. I have recorded with the SUB1 before to get some different sounds but never leads and those sounded pretty good as well.

Loving mine... It's my only "ball" but when the money starts coming in again. Heh Heh...

 

[TheBassGuy]

Wow, a white SUB! nice.

I'm wondering why de decision was made to paint the whole neck black. Doesn't that cost more than leaving it blank?

 

[Axilla]

Wow jonyq, that's a pretty nice SUB1 you got there!
I've never seen a white one before...
Welcome to the forum by the way !

Thanks you

I got lucky on this one.

The story goes like this... I gave up on trying to get a Ibanez RG (the middle of the range one) to work for me as a stable rock guitar. I sold it. A couple of days later, a SUB advertisement came up for something like US$200. I snapped it up.
I'm sure we all know the SUB looks like some un-versatile shredder axe on the mainpage. The only question I asked the seller was whether he had ordered it with the optional features. Which he did! That was all I needed to know. In 2 hours I was down at his house and was blown away again when it was White.

Hopefully more balls to come

I'm wondering the same too. I'd love to get some elbow grease and get it finished the same way as the more expensive Ebmm's are.

 

[parker_bb]

I'm just starting to learn about the EBMM lineup but my guess would be that the not-so-pretty cuts were used for the SUB-1 necks. It's still maple, just not as pretty. Just a guess...

I understand - I'm in Texas and one of my favorite BBQ joints is a place called Rudy's. They have a chopped bbq meat which consists of "sweepings" (crumbs from brisket, ribs and even turkey) and mixed with their homegrown sause [sic]. It's awesome and beats the hell out of throwing all that chopped goodness away.

Lol at 64 haha this isnt a food forum. its all balls here

 

[SteveF]

SUBs are great guitars. Compare one with a decent setup to anything in its price range and it comes out looking very very good. I have one that's seen tons of gigs and always plays and sounds fine, stock.

I love that white one...someday I want to find a white one.

Cosmetically, the only bummer was the pickguard. Diamond plate or matte black...didn't seem very "classy" or "classic" to me. If they'd been able to go forward with the series and offer a few other options...I think it would have swept the floor with a lot of fenders, sub-1000 Gibsons, and PRS SE offerings.

Man i really am digging that white one. if any one has a hard tail SUB 1 can they plz post a pic id love 2 see one
