Nice all around.  Really like the rotary switching and the number of options it presents.

I've been buying from them for awhile.  Their website has improved 3 fold from what it was a year and a half ago.  As one of the guys said "once you get it down" it's fairly simple.  The free shipping is a great deal especially when you only need a couple of items you're missing.  Caps, resistors, ICs and some jacks are what I mostly buy from them.  I have purchased a few enclosures when I had a coupon but I've never seen them keep a huge number in stock.

Since this is really the only pedal forum I hangout on I would contribute to help also.  Just a bunch of really good people on here and even though I struggle with getting this electronics stuff I feel I can get help even if it's something pretty stupid that I've done.

I also like the ability to purchase not only Bean projects but the host of other boards that come up on here that are just stellar.  There are just a bunch of really smart designers on here and I have to "Tip My Hat" to Brian for being great about the group buys. 

Even though I know I have to curtail my board purchases (Man this is going to be hard) due to the fact that one day my spouse is going to spaz completely out, I am looking forward to seeing these new boards come out.  There is always something interesting that just puts the excitement level up a couple of notches.  Hope everyone has a great holiday season and a happy new year.

The first MF Stupid Deal of the Hour today was for the white one @ $699.

I've never had a chance to play one of those, but they are really nice looking instruments.  Congrats on the new toy!

I'm not hyping this thing but at $699 it is a steal. It plays as well as any of my other higher priced guitars.  Who knows about the neck pup, I'm not a fan, but it might sound right to others.  I have a lot of high frequency hearing loss so it sometimes makes a world of difference.

Can you post a picture of the bottom?  I feel your pain with this.  This has been the norm for me for the last 3 months.  Finally got the Cascadia working thanks to jubal (bonehead mistake on my part that he caught immediately).

Is there a cure you can get at Walgreens?

While it is a nice guitar, I am rather more enamored with the pedal pile in the background  ;D

I suppose I have this sickness in that area also.  If the board developers would stop making these fantastic projects perhaps I could curtail that addiction, 🤔 probably not.

Thanks for the comments.

Im just a sucker for half price guitars I guess Or Jimilee's I have to buy a Guitar even though I have 40 of them powers have leaked through my iPad and rubbed off on me.  Musicians Friend had a Stupid Deal of the Hour on the natural tint on Black Friday for $699.  I resisted then and as always after doing some research later sort of started kicking myself.  Anyway the white one went on sale at Sam Ash for the same price so I ordered one but felt it was going to get canceled because all of the Excel line guitars vanished off their website the next day.  My online rep (Ira) called 2 days later and said it wasn't going to be filled but their was one he found in their Hollywood store, it was an 8 out of 10 and did I want it.  Well I said yes and besides the case having the tolex ripped a little in one area the guitar is almost flawless.  Not sure if any of you have tried these but the reviews are good and this one is a keeper.  My only complaint is with the neck pup and it's a little to dark for me.  I like bright pups because I can always adjust the tone level down.  Besides that the workmanship from Korea is excellent and out of the case it plays extremely well.  It has some gaudy looking tuners but they're Grover's and work well.  MF has the white one for $1550 now.  If you see these go on sale for $700 or below you might want to take a good look at it.  It's a really nice Guitar.
