New Nolly Signature with Manson Guitar Works

[profwoot]

Yeah they do.

Ibanez did it as well (With the Apex at least) and I think KXK did it as well.

Seems like any company that doesn't want to do Gibson's weird tilt-back fretboard would have to recess it, no?

 

[odibrom]

I imagine it can. I'm guessing it'll have the "normal" row be the standard 3-way, then the 2nd row will be 3 way with the coils split.

Go check heir website, they have schematics for their switches...

It's probably been said before, but when he was in Periphery, Nolly was the best guitarist in the band. And he didn't even play guitar. Monster player.

I actually dig the model.

Also the Freeway switch is going to be for parallel and series switching.

Good god that looks cheap to me! Really not a fan of the body shape with the satin black.

Nolly is a monster guitarist and just makes everything look easy AF.

I dont mind the aesthetic and guitar looks cool and all, be keen to see actual specs on a few things including scale/neck thickness etc ... but for the cost (in AUD its like a 4k+ guitar) it does look very plain (echoing above comments).

I dig the body outline. It reminds me a bit of my favorite shape, from Parker, but dialed back a little. I prefer the Parker, but do like the Manson.

IMO the worst parts of a vanquish plus the worst parts of a ViK (that aren't the luthier)

The luthiers are by far the worst parts of each of those though.

TOM bridges are epic. The best bridge for riffs IMO.

Anyone else remember when this forum absolutely HATED TOM bridges? Pepperidge farm remembers (I've liked them on guitars I've had so I guess to say I don't really care about a fixed bridge)

Yeah, I hate them. Don't you forget!

For real. Now everyone wants Les Paul Customs that aren't Les Paul Customs.

does Kiesel still recess their TOMs. That used to be a Carvin thing

Yes and no. Yes they do still recess them, but the only models that still carry the TOM bridge are all "Carvin-era" models (SCB6, Ultra V, V220, CT6, CS3, CS6, SH6, SH550, FG1). Every other model launched since just has the Hipshot fixed as the only fixed bridge option.

It also reminds me of Padalka a bit

Nice guitar. Looks good enough that it won’t offend anybody, but it’s not niche enough for people to love/hate it. If the quality is good, it’s priced similar to an ESP M-II or some other TOM bridge bolt on 24 fret guitar. With the Nolly endorsement, I’m sure it will sell quickly.

 

[Spicypickles]

Looks pretty dope to me.

I’m sure on a guitar this expensive it won’t be an issue, but I’ve always found recessed TOMs to lack string pressure and can slip off the saddles if pummeled hard enough.

Looks like there's more than a hint of Waghorn Sauria in there to me

I don't...

 

[Pietjepieter]

Hum, I kinda like it but also kinda middle of the road.
Nothing special, but damn I think the seven string will be around 4000 euro, (3000 pound = 3600 euro then hallo tax) I really think it is way to expensive.
I mean it looks ok, ok hardware, but nothing is really standing out to justify that amount of money in my opinion.
