To me they look the same but I have not deassembled them and placed them on each other.

Well, the risk is minimal whole wearing a vest like his and besides I see no powertools. Police and security have ties with Velcro fastening where I come from. Otherwise a bowtie could be an...
I have four different Almuse pickups: AFM61L, FMC4, MS4, and MB4CTS. And I like the MB4CTS most. It feels most versatile with two different resistances and it is used with a push pull potentiometer....
Nice and sophisticated solution! And, yes, I believe it will look more attractive in black.
I myself have chosen the less complex solution and just replaced the height adjusting screws to shorter...
Those of you that have a condenser tumble dryer can use that water to humidify the air. It will be close to distilled water.
I have used a couple of those gadgets that were shaped like a flattened...
From what I know cryogenic treatment means that you chill the steel with for example liquid nitrogen. This is a way to harden steel further than quenching it with water to ambient temperature. When...
Just to be sure, you are all aware that the core wire in mandolin strings is made of steel. It is only the wound part of the strings that can be nickel plated steel, pure nickel, different bronzes,...
Have an FM988 and I didn't like the headstock to begin with but after awhile I have started to like it. But what reduce my appreciation is their open tuners. That's not solid body style to me. The...
If in Europe you can buy the "Pyramid Mandolin 8-string Set with Ball End, Material: Silver-plated steel and Silver-plated wound, 009 - 013 - 022w - 032w - always doublestrings (8 Strings total)". It...
And as the FM988.
Well, the big merit or advantage with that head is that you immediately recognize a 12 string electric Fender guitar or an 8 string electric Fender mandolin.
I like the the...
I remember seeing this before that using a 15" speaker when amplifying mandolin is beneficial. My ignorance stop me from understanding the impact of the 15". I would expect a mandolin with its rather...
Guess someone at Thomann just translated tone bars to German and someone else translated it back to English.
But didn't the old ones have a bridge cover? And with that the new ones could have a bridge with individuall adjustment of intonation. Or would that be a drawback?
And I really don't understand...
I'm not so sure about the FM52SE because the cover looks wider and thinner though it could be difficult to judge from photos. The first two images are of an FM52SE. The third is of an FM988. ...
The pick ups for the FM-988 and FM-984 look the same but I am not shure about the pole distances.7646276463
Thanks Tom, very interesting, so using a heavier string will increase the output some but not much. Or that is how I interpret what you've written. If the E string gives less output than the A string...
I want to understand more about acoustic mechanics or what it can be called. I have not found much information that is usable for me. Can you help me find information regarding string dimension,...
The reserve was not met. And your remarks is there below. But there is really no comment to your statement....
Could someone tell me the distance between the outermost strings at the bridge on a FM-984?
Have one that lacks the bridge. So I need to know to get a replacement.
It is difficult to see if it really is true sonic blue due to the light conditions. I mean look at the head. It is rather bright and the pick up cover is supposed to be black.
I saw this FM-988 in...
