Hottest... MTD... ever!

Seriously, if this isn't the hottest looking MTDs ever made, it's gotta rank up there! :eek: Not trying to push TGS's product, but methinks this is worth it's own thread to gaze upon. Now, drool with me...

I'm dyin' over here!
 
I'm with you about the covers, they look odd, and I definitely prefer the look of normal width Nordstrand covers with rounded edges and countersunk screws.


That is incredibly sick at any rate
 
I absolutely love the look of a burled buckeye top with a birdseye maple fingerboard.

My only question is how will those pickups sound compared to the normal Barts? Like Kjung said...the original electronics are pretty much integral to the classic sound of MTD basses.
 
Hi guys,

Boy, you guys have good eyes! The screws on this were actually temporary and have since been replaced. The original screws Carey sent us were too short so we used the standard MTD/Bart screws. I wanted to get the photographs up and posted so I didn't wait to swap them out. If I get some time I'll re-photograph it though.

The bass still sounds very MTD-ish but it's a bit more Fendery. The mids are really, really organic and chewy and the top is slightly softer than the Barts. It's a subtly different take on a very MTD color. It actually reminds me a lot of a Fodera.
