    I LOVE the sound of my MK unplugged, and the volume's not bad when I want it. (Acoustic means want it louder, play it harder, 'cuz there is no volume knob!) The plugged-in tone's pretty good too, but a little crackly.


    I'd love to try it with a sound-hole mic setup!

     

    I compared a Martin with a MK unplugged... Made the MK so tiny... But here, the Martin is more then twice the price of a Micheal Kelly...

     

    Anyways, do way it goes for me money wise, I guess I'll go with an Ibanez, at least for a few years...

    When I got mine, I was able to play 4 strait out of the box. 3 were great and one needed a bit of tweaking. I was impressed with the Kwality Kontrol (at least in that batch). You can get this setup (including case off of ebay for around $220 new sometimes:

    Nice and cheap...

     

    Yeah but I'll buy one in a store... I'm just the find of person who wants to try before buying... and I'm willing to spend a bit more then that... At the limit, if my budget allow me to get a better instrument but no case, I'll just carry it in it's box for a few months...

  3. I'm getting one as soon as I sell my MIM P-bass...

     

    I was impressed by the value of the latest Ibanez models... I tried the cheapest (AEB8E) and I thought it was sounding better then some other I tried in the same store... Then I saw the price tag and wondered why it was so cheap !

     

    Micheal Kelly basses look great and sound/feel good too...
