well looks like they're filling a gap in the market now that strymon are exclusively making eurorack gear

GAK have the only one outside the US. LANK Not sure I could pull it off tbh. i want to hate the leopard print everyt...

Looks like a Jag with a Jazz Bass body, likely inspired by the custom guitars of John Squire from the Stone Roses (which were Jag bodies with Strat horns and trem), which may be what you're remembering as we definitely had some threads about 'em in the past. http://i.pinimg.com/originals/82/26/8c/8...

did work experience at maton a few months back and they've actually stopped production of all electrics which sucks because their 60s stuff was super post-modern and cool.. tho they haven't made these since the 60s soooooooo http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7469/16032760558_0d876ddb46_b.jpg And I bet i...

damn this is cool, i hope they release it

sonic blue would be super cool too

looking great so far! would be interested in a copy of the finished plans if you're ok with sharing

wonder if this one will turn out to be a stolen sonic youth guitar too

this is such a cool build, absolutely awesome! would love to see it done!

i think maton wind their pickups to something ridiculous like 40k then tap them at one point for split and tap them a bit harder for both coils which ends up with them sounding full in both modes

i mean i'm not that interested in billy since he was on alex jones but this could be vaguely cool

congrats!!!!! looks great!!

I don't really get the blowback with these! I actually really like them and if they end up as still being $100 in Australia money (hahahahahahahahaha) I'll probably buy one. Maybe on the used market when they're like $50.

But really, the cartoony colours really speak to me.

So tonight I wired up the guitar. I fucked up somewhere. I made sure to follow the above series/parallel diagram, going slowly, double checking to make sure I followed the diagram exactly. When I finished, I strung the guitar up and plugged it in. No sound! Well, there is a faint "click" ...

i feel like eastwood guitars look great from a distance but once you get up close they're all kinda horrible

Behringer have also bought the patent for some oberheim synths and have successfully cloned the chips, very exciting if they manage to get it in a reasonable $$ bracket

This is how my mustang is wired. It basically uses the two swtiches to get the popular 4 way switch mod common to telecasters.

damn this looks nice but do you lose the out of phase option?

I think it really depends on your playing style; one of the biggest differences between light and heavy strings is how sharp they go on the initial attack, especially if you really dig in.
