NGD! I think i've found the one!

Post by JJLipton »

I've always thought the fender mustang was the most comfortable guitar to play. Small body, thin neck, light weight. However the sound is also very thin, which doesn't suit me at all. I played a few metal style guitars until i finally tried out a musicman JP6.

Small body, thin neck, light weight, heavy sound. The bridge is not locking, although the lack of a string tree and locking tuners keep the guitar in excellent tune. The pup selector is also in a very convenient location. I suggest everyone try this out!

Forgive the shred, just having fun here.

Said it many times, Musicman's are the best playing guitars. They're made to play, not the best looking, not my sound, but DAMN they play so well.

Nice, that's pretty cool. The PUP selector below the strings looks like it would be a problem for me when strumming. How come there are 2?

Yeah the switch might be problematic for people with big hands. The 2nd switch on the upper horn turns on the piezo pup system. You also have the option of blending the signals together. The middle position on the lower pup switch actually activates the center coils on both magnetic pickups to give a single coil esque sound.
