    how about a video Arzi, doesn't have to be a high quality recording.

    Good news it's playing well.

    After watching this build diary you got me keen to build a customised MMB-4 and I'd definitely put the 2nd humbucker in.

    I'm also keen to hear how you think the positioning of the neck pup is and the difference in sound from the bridge pup. The pickguard allows a fair bit of movement for the neck pup

    I'll try to come up with something in the following weeks. I'll be wiser next week when I get to try this one with the band and my gear. So far I've only tested it with a small speaker -amp combo.

    crikey Arzi the first thing I do when a build is finished is crank it on the biggest amp you have !

    The speedbump I have at the moment is that I'm 400km away from my 1x15 and 2x10 tower. All I could find was this test speaker that I almost blew... Tested the previous builds with the same one and the difference was clear.

    Can't wait to testdrive it with proper gear...

    ok Arzi that's a big speed bump that's a fair distance.

    Sure you will make up for it when you plug it into a beefy amp

    hi

    Trussrod cover got finished yesterday. Decided to keep it simple.

    Since the name of this piece is "Medic Man" and the bass with the drums creates the heartbeat of every song - I thought it would be fitting to put an ekg heartbeat diagram on the cover.

    Thank you so much guys.

    Took it out with the band yesterday and really had fun playing. Used 12 o'clock settings on the amp just shaped the sound from the bass for three hours while playing. All I have to say is I don't have run to the amp so much anymore which is really nice.
