...around the middle of the paragraph.

Pretty bass, though (minus the white PU cover on the black PG)!

"There was nothing wrong with the original frets other than the factory doesn't do a great job on frets, and plastic nuts are lame."

The guy's a freaken drop-kick (AKA dickhead)

"The sounds you can produce from this Musicman is incredible."

"Sounds" is plural. Should be "are" not "is". It's OK to talk like a pirate every now and again.

All in favor, make a pirate noise.

All opposed, make a horsey noise.

[Psycho Ward]

Hello sailor, new in town? *wink, wink*

 

[SteveB]

I was going to say "Arrghh!", but then I read this:

Hello sailor, new in town? *wink, wink*

and I wanted to say "Uggh!" instead, but that would indicate approval, so now I'm stuck saying..

"Neigh" by which I really intend to say "Nay!"

 

[shamus63]

[Disquieter]

a mike lull refret?

that's like a 200 dollar job, and a 15 dollar value and he didn't need it in the first place..


I'll bet a thousand dollars they guy was trying to make it a fretless and screwed up so he had mike lull "fix" it...


does EB press their frets by hand (with a machine of course) or is it all automated?


thanks
joel D.

 

[shamus63]

There was a guy on the Factory Tour that takes care of that with a press...but not automated.

That's the beauty of EBMM axes...the manufacturing process is about 90% hands-on; very little left to machining.

 

[bovinehost]

Wasn't there an automated machine that was under development?

But until that's perfected, all the frets are installed by fairies and elves in a darkened, smoky chamber filled with photos of Dudley, just like always.

 

[Beth]

thats right Jackie!

That was the ATM by the snack bar, Jack.
