"Deliver MGS 1-15 July 1 - September 30, 2012
Deliver MGS 16-31 October 1 - December 31, 2012"

NO WAY !!! They're bringing out a MGS ??????

I guess nobody here has expected this ....

Now that that's settled, the next two big questions will be "What is the scale length?" and "What is the string spacing at the bridge?".

Hi, May I know how's the MGS sounds like? The price is very attractive...

What's the price?

 

[Joelc73]

What's the price?

Same here... Did I miss something above?

 

[nostatic]

I don't believe price has been announced. Should be at 5 pm today

Btw the line to get badges printed at the show is ridiculous. namm fail.

 

[Lennard III.]

I think it'll be a 33' with 17.5mm on the bridge

It was nuts last year as well. The line kept going around like 4 corners and 4 long walls, but it did move fast. NAMM WS 2011 I was a good 200 yards from (my bad for getting there around 10:30am) the printing station, but it only took 25 minutes to get through.

Six hours to go. I hope it will 33' and 17.5 mm.

 

[fivestringdan]

Not sure why it would differ from Matt's spec but you never know.

sorry you won't be there this year . . .

 

[metalstorm]

MY guess is 19mm on the MGS.

Jason,

I'm wondering with the additional 31 MGS coming into the delivery schedule in 2012 what will happen to the delivery schedules of the vast amounts of customs already on order?

Will they be pushed back and if so what will be the impact?

 

[fivestringdan]

I always thought Matt used the old standard bridge.

Matt has 16.5 ?

I hope not - because my production date is in october this year

 

[fivestringdan]

I doubt the production schedule for the MGS was implemented this week..lol

True, but if capacity is finite in the shop something has to give won't you say?

Could be more crafmen have been hired but I doubt it.

Cheers.

With the introduction of the first two standard models, production has never slowed (it's even gotten faster). I'm not sure how they did it but it seemed to work. Building these basses in small batches must be very time-efficient.

Also, I'm pretty sure Matt uses 19mm spacing, but I may be wrong. I would guess that that's the spec for the standard, since it's based on his signature model, but of course it can always be adjusted. Love those Fodera bridges!

Jason, thanks for the updates and keep up the great work!!
