Ibanez MTM1

[AlexMac85]

The song is gematria (the killing name) also I dunno much about the guitar other than Mick pretty much plays everything bar a few songs drop b. Does this come factory tuned to drop b as well?

[metalhed0294]

WHAT SONG!?

[aznboyhottie93]

lol i made this exact same vid... same guitar and everything except with the mtm case xD nice vid

[brux559]

trust me dude, that probably going to become the guitar you use most... i have 3 guitars and only use one of them, but nothing i have can compare to the mick t sig

[Richard19706]

how much do those run for?

[demented737]

it normally does

[LinkinMarc7]

EMG's? WTF?

i think the mtm1 has normaly Seymour Duncan Blackout pu's?!

[jalmetalman]

@LinkinMarc7, Yep, the new ones come with Blackouts.... This is one of the older models that came with EMGs before Mick went with Seymour Duncan :)

[juniormick13]

@jalmetalman what do u think is better mine has EMGS :)

[jalmetalman]

@juniormick13 I don't know, mine also had EMG's... :)

[JimRoot11380]

@LinkinMarc7 in 2005, the mtm1 have emg 81/60

[jcallseven]

i thought they came with ebony on the fret boards ?

[faggotball]

@jcallseven rosewood, mick thinks it sounds better

[jcallseven]

i saw a video where mick talks about ebony like on his production models its a kinda waste then if you are paying all that money for rosewood for a little more you could have got an esp horizon

[nikostsakas]

There's something i didn't get (excuse me if the question seems ridiculous but i don't know much about guitar building, just the basics) In the ibanez catalog it says that the factory tuning is Drop B (C#-G#-E-B-F#-C-B) this is mick thompson's usual tuning but if i want to, can i tune it to standard E? or are C# standard and Drop B the "normal" tunings and it shouldn't go higher (for some technical reasons i don't understand?).

[jalmetalman]

You can tune it to whatever you want :)

[nikostsakas]

thanks.

[guitarsandbacon]

is there any real difference in the mtm1 and the mtm2 like tone wise quality

[jalmetalman]

@guitarsandbacon There is a lot of difference in tone but thats mainly because the MTM1 has active pickups in it where as the MTM2 does not :)

[MetalNIVEK96]

@jalmetalman did you know the mtm2 has active pickups too?

[jalmetalman]

@MetalNIVEK96 Yes, but only the newer versions... :)

[nookiecorp]

@guitarsandbacon

of course not the same pickups ans other things

[faggotball]

did you sell the mtm2?

[jalmetalman]

@faggotball Nope I still have the MTM2...

[faggotball]

@jalmetalman nice, you see the new seymour duncan mick thomson signatures?

[jalmetalman]

Yep...

[XzaccYXguitarXplayer]

mick thompsons signature aint it?

[jalmetalman]

Yep :)
