dhalif: does the bridge unit on ur JP model allow u to pull up? like JP's. oh n how's the whole guitar?

 

[Rossie]

Ripper: Black Sparkle.

bin4christ: The bridge on the OLP JP slightly floats. Can't do big bends, but it's ok for some light vibratos and flutter.

 

[bin4christ]

NOS MMs spotted at Swee Lee Sims

I remembered telling u guys in the earlier post that I spotted some EBMM Axis Sports, here they are, as of yesterday (I am not promoting for Swee Lee, please..) :lol: :

[/URL][/img]

The one at the right is a Trans Blue, while the other one is a Trans Amber. Both are listed at $2,500, before discount. I think should cost around $2k after the usual 20% discount. From what I can see, these are NOS, bros interested can try asking for better price. For those who think of getting best deal, you can try waiting for the mid-year sale, if there is any.. :lol:

 

[Rossie]

Ripper, did you try them? Last time I tried them, they buzzed like hell. And I remember they were going for S$700 at last year's sales.

 

[Ripper]

No I did not try them. The buzz, if any, can be fixed easily.
By the way, U did mention that they were gone at $700 in the earlier post, didnt you? Can you follow me down to Swee Lee again next Sat? Help me ask for $700. I sure grab that Trans Amber.

 

[Rossie]

I did say it was during the sales.

 

[Ripper]

But I tot you say they were all sold out already - at $700. No joke! You can refer back to page 4 of this thread :lol: Hey please leh, help me go down remind the Swee Lee staffs? They will sure honour their sales price. :lol:

 

[Rossie]

The first day I went there, there were 3 EBMM Axis, the second day, they were not there. What should I think?

And the I remember it was S$700 because I thought that that were damn cheap, and was quite surprises that I still saw them hanging there as I was there quite late in the first day of sales; then the second day when I went there again, is wasn't hanging there anymore. Of course I assumed that they had sold them.

The funny bit

"Sorry if this has already been discussed, but I just DVR'd a Dream Theater concert that's been playing on VH1?, and all I can say is that Myung is f***ing great! The show was from 2006 so he's still playing his other 6'er, but he still sounded amazing. Jeez, I can only imagine how he's sounding with the Bongo and other EB axes. Oh yeah, who's the guy playing the Petrucci guitar? He's not bad."

 

[zac89]

[Rossie]

It was meant to be a lame joke...

 

[leecs]

Honestly, the new Musicman basses look like freaking robots. I prefer the older versions.
