I’m just a beginner so forgive the sloppy playing but here is a small sound clip.

Sorry in advance for the sloppy playing, but I am just a beginner so go easy on me.
Here is a little sample.

Yes, B-axis Barts with an ash body, ash neck, birdseye board.
I've spent a little bit of time with it. I was literally minutes from heading out to church to record our services for Sunday when it arrived. Georgia goes into "shelter in place" starting tomorrow. So, it is the last, full production "live" service we will do for a while. I basically unboxed it and headed off to church with it. It was a risky move but it paid off.
. Totally digging it so far. The switch allows you to change the MM pickup between series, parallel and single coil. As expected, its super beefy with the MM in series. Aggressive tone, but not over the top. Which is exactly my goal. I will spend some more time with it in my studio over the next few days and get a better overall feel for it.

Well if you have a studio then you can post sound clips! No excuses!
Does that neck have the titanium rods in it? I've seen them incorporated into MTD ash necks with maple boards.Yes, B-axis Barts with an ash body, ash neck, birdseye board.

This one does not..but yes, Mike does it quite often. The Norm Stockton Saratoga, for example, has an ash neck and birdseye board with titanium rods. I've had ash neck birdseye board Saratogas with and without the rods. For my tonal preferences, I actually prefer not having the rods. It does add stiffness and hence more compression. Which if that is what you are looking for, it is a great option.
Love the comfortable MTD form factor. As compared to Fender form factor. Does it sound like a old PBase?
I stand corrected. You are right. Leave it to you to correct me Sean.
I was getting it confused with his early red one with the ash neck
This one sounds more like a 70's P for sure. I have another Saratoga PJ that has a poplar body with maple neck and rosewood board. That one definitely has a more vintage vibe to it.
