Thanks for reading the review guys! And I'm glad to hear it's working out well for you kbeaumont!
-
PS I searched to see if I could find a better weight estimate for you and FWIW I found a listing for a used one on Reverb that is showing its weight as 6 pounds 7 ounces - a bit less than I estimated, but definitely light,m like I remember... hope that helps!
-
I no longer have the review unit here so I'm unable to check it, but I recall it being fairly lightweight - I'd estimate it to run somewhere around 8 pounds or so... sorry I can't be more specific, but as basses go, it's both compact and fairly lightweight.

Thanks for the comments and for checking the review out guys!

I'm getting an error when I try the link on their site ( https://www.mogees.co.uk/mogees-plugin ) too - I'd recommend trying to contact them via the Support email... or via their address (snail mail), which you can find on this page:

Their email address is support@mogees.co.uk

You're right Olli! I must have looked for those half a dozen times and couldn't find them - and Mackie didn't correct me on that when they fact-checked the review. Thank you for mentioning it - I've edited the review.

Thanks for checking it out Joe, and for your kind words.

Unfortunately I was also unable to find any link to their previously promised PC version - all of the testing I did for this review was on iOS / Mac.
Sorry I can't be of more help. I'd recommend that you inquire directly with the Mogees folks at their Facebook page or website:

You could, but unless you're using an amp sim / speaker simulator pedal along with the electric guitar, I wouldn't really recommend it.
The typical electric guitar amp has a much narrower bandwidth (~70Hz - ~6kHz) and will sound much different than an amp like this one, which is designed to reproduce the wider frequency range required for good acoustic amplification. So while doing so won't hurt anything, you probably won't like the hi-fi sound you get if you try to use an electric guitar with this amp - unless you compensate by using some pedals to process the sound before it hits the Acoustic SFX's input.

No, it can't - you can only pair it with one device at a time over Bluetooth.

Thanks for checking the review out Mikeo.
No, unlike the previous American Vintage series they definitely didn't tint the neck on the new ones. And yes, the very nice case that the American Original series models come with was made by G&G.

Cool! I think you'll like it. I've been having a lot of fun with it. Please let us know what you think once you get a chance to spend some time with it.

No, this piano does not have a one finger chord function - sorry.

Hey, thanks for checking the review out WWW. It really is the most flexible Muff yet IMHO - I think you'll really like it! Stop into the Effects forum and let us know what you think of it once you've had a chance to play with it for a while!

There's good and bad news, I'm afraid, on the adapter. Yes, it appears to be the universal type, with the detachable plug, but unfortunately, it only comes with the single plug attached to it (USA style) and doesn't include any other plug styles for other countries.
-
Yes, I played the two guitars side by side acoustically, and they both sound like thinline hollow bodied guitars (which they both are), although the standard Casino sounds a bit bigger and louder acoustically - almost certainly due to its larger body.
Plugged in, most people would be hard-pressed to tell the two apart based on the way they sound.
-
Thanks for checking the review out! It's a hollowbody, so it's going to have a tendency to feed back at high volume levels, and the closer you get to the amp the worse that's going to be. But as I said in the review:
The ES-275 Figured is great for jazz, but it's a more versatile-sounding guitar than you might think - while most people aren't going to view this as a rock guitar, it does better than I expected it would at medium gain tones, and resisted feedback better than I initially assumed it would.
In other words, while I suspect most purchasers will use the ES-275 for jazz, it's capable of being used for other styles too, and it's a bit more feedback resistant than I suspected it would be... but I wouldn't expect to be able to play it at thrash metal stage volumes and not have it feed back.

Thanks for checking it out Jorhay!

Thanks for reading the review Delmont.
I didn't have any issues with the pickup selector on the review unit. It seems to be working fine, so maybe that's just a one-off issue.
As far as the pickups, I think Fender put some pretty good ones into the Mustang 90. The only other guitar I have here at the moment with P90s in it is a Casino, which is a hollowbody, so it's not really a fair comparison, but I don't think you'd hear a huge difference if you swapped the stock pickups out for something else.
I do think the Mustang 90 would be a natural for the Blues. Give one a try and see what you think - and if you do, please stop back in and let us know what your thoughts are!

I wish they made a larger version that worked with something like an iPad mini - phone screens are smaller than I like to work with when shooting and editing video.
-
Thanks for the excellent tip Matt - please post the link to the support article or email a link to it to me when it's ready so I can post it here for others to benefit from!

For recording, I'd recommend putting it last in the chain; similar to how you'd run an amp. Alternatively, you can run it early or even first in the chain - this might be a better option if you're using it more as a overdrive or distortion pedal as opposed to an amp simulator.
-
Good point / suggestion about the leather strap. Leather or suede straps tend to "grip" your clothing better and therefore slide less readily than a nylon strap, which helps keep the bass where you positioned it.
I'm glad you're enjoying your Squier Jaguar Special SS bass, and thanks for your comments.

Thanks for checking out the review guitarville. Fender changed their pricing policy a while back and they no longer have "MSRP" and MAP or "street" prices - it's all just one price now, which for this model, depends on which finish you opt for. It's $1,899.99 "street" for the alder-bodied Aztec Gold and 2-color Sunburst models, and $1,949.99 "street" for the ash-bodied White Blonde model.
