yeah the one I tried earlier today was super solid for the price
Better fretwork and general setup than most of the ibbys and x series jacksons I tried. Plus it came with duncan pickups, not OEM shit.
Sounds like the one I grabbed. Duncan JB/59 set. Curious how it sounds in maple. :lol:
Do you remember if the Floyd bridge floated? Checking pictures and while it's not recessed, it does seem to slightly float. I can probably set it up and fix it to be dive-only, but I for sure want the fucker solid for when I install a D-tuna. :lol:

The one I played was not floating, it was dive only. It did actually come with a d-tuna though. You'd have to route it out to get it floating.

Yeah that's what I thought. They don't have the routing, but I've seen some where the bridge is slightly raised from the body.

Don't want the floating, though. :lol:

I am starting to think it is going to be a 5150 III 50W. I have been thinking about it for awhile, but keep going other directions. I was playing one today after I went to the store to get some other stuff. I ended up getting nothing and jamming that amp for like an hour. It just sounds and feels right. I typically only like 100W+, but this amp seems more reasonable for my needs, and seems to have the low end depth to not sound small.

I'm prob just going to do some from scratch headless builds, but Sully is coming out with a 27" scale Elita that very much has my attention.

No evertune this time? :lol:
No Evertune :lol:

Its still a cool bridge, I love mine for what it does, and the engineering behind it is fucking awesome. It just has some flaws that I hadn’t considered and they bothered me more than i thought they would.

I did it. Pulled the trigger on all the warmoth parts.

For the bridge i ordered an ABM Modern. Plan on throwing in Eintwistle pickups. Waiting on Schaller to give me a price for the tuners. Tele Deluxe Bari on the way :D

Well I liked the Origin 20 I got for my dad so much I decided to get an Origin 50 for me :lol:

I really like the 3 position power switch. The difference (at least on the 20w) between 0.5w and 3w, and 3w to 20w, isn’t so much a volume increase as much as it adds lows and mids to the sound that fills the room. It does of course get louder, but the highs seem almost uneffected, which makes the increased loudness seem less drastic.

It’s hard to explain sound with words: It’s like the height of the sound stays the same, but the length and width fill in 3 dimensionally... like volume :lol:
