Videos Of Rockbeach Mantis With Manlius Pickups...

Video links to WNY Guitar Show demos 4-18-10. It still amazes me how that small body Mantis (the first 5 videos) can sound almost like a baritone... Manlius Modern Vintage pickups in that one and the CB-1 on the last video has GFS Vintage 59s in it. Players at my booth respected other booths by keeping the volume down. Too bad some shredders at other booths couldn't do the same... Sorry about the "special effect" on the 3rd one... I forgot about the rotation not working for video like it does on stills... :D I also discovered that using the zoom while shooting video (it's a Kodak Z915 still camera in video mode) causes it to search for focus pretty nastily.

By the way, did any of you notice that the guy in the first two clips is playing it seated without even using a strap? The guitar placement is perfect due to the lower bout cutout and the placement and depth of the waistline... :D
