The Official MARUSZCZYK CLUB!

Got to say that I'm, personally, getting tired of dealers and manufacturers (actually MOST businesses) assuming that we all have Facebook accounts.....

I don't have one and won't have one.....My loss or theirs?.....

Sorry for the derail but needed a quick vent.....

For one, you could reach out to Adrian and ask for contact details.

On the other hand you could still go on Facebook and look up a page like Maruszczyk USA for contact details, as most band/company pages are open for public and do not require a Facebook account.

Should have made it clear that I've already been in touch with Adrian via e-mail and already own a Mensinger bass as a result......

What I dislike is the creeping page obscurer that rises up the page on Facebook company pages if you don't have a Facebook account.....

No big deal I suppose......Just irritates me....

Lol I understand, though I don't know what you refer to, as I do have a FB account. Maybe post a screenshot to see what you mean? :)

If you click the "Not Now" button.....The screen obscurer disappears but then reappears if you click anything on the page....

There is also an email address for Sylvain listed on the Marusczyck website...and the guy Donovan from The Fret Spot is a dealer, as is VSN Guitars (both in Canada)
 
Here it is. Decked out with Delano preamp and Haussel pickups. Series, parallel, single coil switch on the dual J. Hipshot Ultralight tuners.

It looks fantastic! Love the stain on the alder. I think it is a nice classy warm look.

First thing I did was get rid of the crappy strings that come on these basses and strung it with a set of DR High Beams, my go to string of choice. Very nice low action and ballsy tone. Very punchy and full in series, much more vintage in single coil.

This thing weighs just 8.5 lbs! Wow.

Easily one of the best values on the market. Fantastic build quality and slays any Fender I've ever laid hands on. Look at my profile page and you'll see I've owned a lot of basses. These things are very, very good.

Cheers!

P.S. The pick guard isn't scratched up. Just haven't taken off the plastic.

Hell yeah, beautiful model!

Good choice on active electronics ;)

Mine is a little bit lighter than yours, absolutely fantastic feeling with such a light bass!

Morning all .....

Question .... I absolutely LOVE this bass that Wojtek is playing here and you can see on the headstock it's obviously a Marusczyk bass .... and I would love to buy one

Here's the link for that screenshot so you can hear the absolutely beautiful "PUNCH" this baby has ... (kind of sounds like my Stingray actually)



Here's what's confusing me .....

This shot of an almost identical looking bass made by Mayones also played by Wojtek

What's up here? Are the two brands copying each other on this axe? Is one supposed to be modeled after the other?

So confused right now :bored:
