Anyone? I've read comparisons of the 2x10 and 1x15 but nothing on stacked pairs of both.

How do the stacked 2x10s compare sound wise to the 2x15?

My '58 CS Precision has the pick-up with the raised A pole piece, and the pickup is adjusted exactly as the picture. So, I will re-iterate that the set up is correct for that pickup.

I ordered a Team Built in July 2021 and was told 14 months. In April, I checked in with the dealer, and the CS told him it was now 18 months (supply chain, COVID, etc.). As the build was supposed to start in October, I checked in earlier this month and was told that the build had not started and...

I can't help you with a name, and it is frustrating to have your build keep moving out. On the Mesa Subway thread, the same thing is happening to orders for cabinets. I ordered a CS Precision at the end of July 2021. My dealer was given a 14 month lead time. I checked at 8 months (end of March)...

What's the lead time these days?

Where was the FCS dealer throughout all this? What was the dealer's reaction to the issues you were having and what support did the dealer give you?

How does the in ear system on the pedalboard work in regards to hearing the rest of the band in your ears? Are you getting a feed from the board?

Awesome! How did you find it?

Anyone with a rosewood board, passive VP4 (no J) that you may be interested in selling, please PM me.

It comes down to the specifications that you want. As already mentioned, masterbuilt carries a price premium. Also, the amount of relic treatment has a price impact (e.g., a heavy relic is more expensive than a journeyman relic). Other options will have price impacts. When I went through this...

As you can see, it is dependent on the dealer. For my order, it was 30% (fully refundable if something comes up and the order has not been started).

Joe, the stacked knob on the far left is vol/vol? What about the original blend knob (second from the left) ... what function does that now have? I assume that the remaining two are still the eq knobs (bass, mid, treble).

That was a fair and reasonable request. I would not be happy. I placed an order a couple weeks ago for a bass. I will have to email my dealer with some of the warranty stories that I have been reading and ask what's up.

Did you buy the bass new from a FCS dealer? I ask because the FCS Custom Care promise on their website states "Fender Musical Instruments Corporation guarantees that your Custom Shop instrument will be expertly crafted according to your specifications and will arrive free of defects. If not...
