Adrian will not do custom shapes. I had a local customer asking that. He flat out refused.

cheers

Really? Got my catalog out in front of me and I could have sworn there's a guy playing a bass in the shape of a bottle of Jack Daniels?

Beautiful! Would love to own a Sandberg one day.

Get something from Maruszczyk, and do something nice with your change from £1500.

Came in here about to say this, the options with them are insane. I've got a custom speesy on order and it was far, far less than 1500.

Gorgeous.

Just wondered about this, but has anyone put in a full custom from Adrian, so I mean something that is a shape that isn't offered by them.

What was the price point on it?

Love the look of these!

Even at the current rate, they're still great value.

That is true.

I ordered in August, shortly after we voted for economic and societal suicide, and given the already rising cost asked if I could pay in full. It left things a little tight at the time, but it's saved me a bit. On the upside, when we're the outcasts we're going to be, they'll be dearer and rarer.

It's going to be crap.

Going to have to stock up now, gah.

my custom is ready...

full disclosure (i've seen people getting stoned for less on here) : i do work with Adrian for his dealer network. This bass however is not for sale and will not be. This is my own personal one.

Are you Bootsy?

Looks awesome!

Week 7 of my build...

Not long to go I hope.

What's the waiting time for you guys? 12? 15? weeks?

Take your pick:

[url="https://www.public-peace.de/index.php/bass-guitars/maruszczyk/jake/4-string"]https://www.public-p...k/jake/4-string[/url]

Can get a custom for less than a US Fender...

I'm in Town tomorrow after noon, I'll have a look round Cash Converters and stuff.

I was just about to nominate that or the Marshall MG for the worst amplifier I've ever heard!

I'd love to visit Adrian, he seems very warm and very genuine.

But musicians are generally a friendly bunch.

Wish they'd bring back the V basses.

What they've brought out just screams "meh" to me/.

So envious of you guys! Only a few weeks to go! AGHHHHHHHHHHHH!

I did a lot of research before pulling the trigger on this and found no evidence, reliable or otherwise, that Bugera bvv3000 amps are any more likely to catch fire than any other. For every user that complains about Behringer quality there seems to be another that has owned their products for years of reliable service. They offer a three year warranty so any issues should arise if you use it fairly regularly. If mine self destructs outside warranty I will just put it down to experience and treasure the good times we'd shared. I don't think I will ever be happy to spend over a grand on a far east made valve amp. AD200B might tempt me if they ever add auto bias

Let us know how it works out, been thinking about buying one of these as a backup for my Ashdown CTM100, but I need another cab as they only take 4 ohms.

Anyway, good luck with it. It's a nice price.

An entire month's paycheque and this beauty is arriving tomorrow. I can't wait!
[/quote]

So you went for it? Lovely!

That isn't helping.

Looks lovely though!

Word of caution, they're known in the guitar world for their unreliability (Behringer) and they used to set themselves on fire due to a plastic clip in the amplifiers which overheated.

It's a good price and I'd be tempted myself however.

The custom Maruszczyk that I am waiting for. The most indulgent and most expensive. Hope it is good!
[/quote]

Was about to say the same thing, currently however it's all about my Mensinger flying V I'm getting made from Adrian and his building team right now.

For me and others who are counting the weeks down to Maruszczyk Christmas, could you lucky owners tell us how good he is at keeping to his delivery promises?
[/quote]

I had a couple of delays, but that was because of them trying to finish what they had for the previous year and Winter NAMM.

Hopefully this time round will be better.

Can't wait for the sofa shot!

That is certainly unusual.

I like it!

Week 12....
[/quote]

I feel you. Week 5 and I'm already have impatience, God knows what I'll be like after 10 weeks.

[quote name='JamesBass' timestamp='1474815157' post='3140708']
Oh nice one! I might just be edging closer to actually pulling the trigger on an order...
[/quote]

Another one!

Nice to see a smallish business growing.

Never tried a BB Yamaha, but the guy I bought my Steve Harris Precision from is selling one.

I'm tempted for sure. Heard wonderful things about it.

But you know me and my love of the P Bass
