M-Series MB Red Alert
Our best-selling range, the M-Series, has been updated for 2024 and now includes our MB outline shape and a wider range of colour options. M-series represents a partnership of EU manufacturing together with our UK-made pickups to create a very high-spec instrument at a competitive price.
Incorporating new tweaks and improvements, the new M-Series MB-1 key features include a traditional neck plate, rosewood fingerboard, Gotoh 3 Series hardware including H.A.P. (Height Adjustable Post) machine heads, and the same improved custom Sustainiac system recently added to our New Era range, which increases performance and reduces cross-talk of the Sustainiac whilst in use.
Core specification is still at a fully professional level with a solid 2-piece alder body, and our highly regarded in-house MB PF-1 bridge humbucker. A medium/high output model based around an Alnico V magnet, it delivers all the drive and gain one could wish for, yet still delivers clean tones that work whether isolated at the bridge or combined with the ultra-clean tones of the neck Sustainiac pickup when not being used in sustain mode. If it's sustain you require, then the Stealth Pro Sustainaic system can deliver all the sustain you need. Its unique circuitry keeps the note ringing in one of three modes (Fundamental, Harmonic or Mix) for as long as you can hold it down. A whole new tonal palette awaits the player.
All final set-up and inspection is carried out here in our UK workshops and we’ve added our very own MGW Hiscox case to provide years of reliable transport duties.
M-Series truly represents a pro-spec instrument at a competitive mid-range price point.
