I have had the immense pleasure of actually playing a few MCS guitars at Neal's home when I visited the MCS shop in January. They are easily the best constructed, best set up and easiest playing isntruments I've played in the 20 years I've been playing!
I am having a custom Arachnid Ultra bass being constructed right now! In fact it is Arachnid Ultra #1!
I own 3 classic early/mid-80s handmade USA B.C. Rich instruments (1983 Warlock guitar, 2 1985 Warlock basses), that were constructed when Neal was there, along with Sal, who is the main luthier at MCS now. These instruments are awesome! So my bass is being made "by the same hands" that made my Warlocks!
