Blueburst is quite tasty now if my wallet could afford it

This is something I might be interested in... Rebea is a fantastic player and a very good person to boot...
He posted a youtube not too long ago announcing that he was leaving Chapman guitars for something different...

So...who all got Gamechanger vibes from this? Interesting how Duncan's execution is totally different since they're selling this as an add-on vs. a full up guitar, like Music Man did.

Yeah- I saw that a few weeks ago. It's not quite as flexible, but certainly a cool piece of gear. I'll have to play with one at some point.

Definitely piqued mine! Now I just need a project guitar to put it in

For me personally, I have an old style Silent Circuit in both guitars right now and I'm not sure it's compatible with that kind of switching system. Interesting though, for sure.
It's 12 years since Music Man did the Gamechanger. 12 years! Just goes to show how far ahead of its time it was. Technology (and people) have moved forward since then. The Duncan thingy will be easy to install, wireless in use, and doesn't come with the price tag of a top of the line guitar attached. I don't know if it'll be a huge seller for them but as long as the app remains useable and bug free it will do well.
This is exactly what I‘m gonna do too.
I don‘t like the new colors.
No purple, I‘m out, so I do a search for another Firemist Purple or BFR LIII.

I'm really digging the satin look on the anniversary guitar! Pics courtesy of Curt Mah.

damn that red is absolutely beautiful. Are the bridge single coils stacked by any chance?

I think I read in one of these NAMM threads that they're not stacked like the old DiMarzios...true single coil.

Re: L4 single coils, to date Music Man have never done noiseless single coils of their own design, preferring their own silent circuit with traditional design single coils. If they had, it would be a big deal and would have been made explicitly clear as part of their NAMM release. So I fully expect the L4 to have traditional design HT single coils.
