Hello Nico,
Have you ever considered supplying wider pedals ( in a DIY kit ) for MUSSER M55s and M48s ?
Hello Nico,
In addition to the van der Plas Gel Pad (wonderful product) what other suggestions (changes) would you make for improving the MUSSER M55 ?
Today on this sunny Sunday I'm gonna have our machines work on a new project. If it works out well, it might help a huge number of vibists.
The main reason for this new DIY frame is a cheap solution for those who aready own a vibe for gigging, or for thosethat own a crappy beaten up frame and need something fancy without having to invest heavily.
It is not as transportable as the gigVibe and/or M55, cause the main issue here is costs reduction. For those who need something more transportable, we're gonna offer something in the relative near future.
Hello Nico,
Even though you are not the manufacturer of these products I was wondering whether you could ( given your expertise )comment on the major differences between the MUSSER M58 Piper Vibe and the M55 .
Thank you.
When I started building my very first vibe some 15 (or was it more?) years ago, I made a smallwidth pedal for it.
With that pedal I got quite some problems:
- the damperbar was pulled down unevenly
- eventho it was only a 3 octaves with narrow bars, I didn't feel comfortable always having my right leg on the same spot.
To solve the first issue, I connected a Y-shaped pulling-rod, but then discovered that I had to place 2 springs ISO 1 (there has to be a spring as close as possible to any point where the damperbar is connected to a pulling device).
