My New Mullen G2!!!

Post by Jason Dunkle »

Hey Guys,

I just wanted to share some pics of my new Mullen G2. I will have it next week. It's beautiful!! The 4th pedal lowers 5 & 10 a 1/2 tone. I can't wait to play it!! Merry Christmas!

Jason

Congratulations, Jason.

That pearly blue on black is beautiful. What is the pickup? I bet you're going to love your new Mullen.

The pickup is a Bill Lawrence 705. I have a 710 in my Show Pro and love it!

Pretty. Mullen[s] are great guitars. G2's even better.

So did you move the B to Bb's to the 4th pedal or did you mean you are lowering 5 & 10 a whole tone ala the so-called "Franklin" pedal?

Nice guitar. Congratulations. :)

I meant that pedal 4 lowers 5 & 10 from B to Bb. I know a lot of people use that change on a vertical, but my friend and teacher, Travis Toy, uses it with the A pedal to get split tuning. I originally was getting a 5th pedal to get the "Franklin" pedal, but I decided to not get it.

Jason, that's an awesome looking guitar, contrats.

Regarding pedal 4 lowering the B notes to Bb. If your A pedal is the left most pedal (sitting in the playing position) and Pedal 4 is the right most pedal, then you wouldn't be able to combine them to get the Split note (C). You would need to use both feet to depress both pedals at the same time. Sorry if I'm missing something. Normally you use a lever for the half step drop, where you can combine a pedal and a lever.

Jason's new Mullen !

Post by Charlie McVay »

Jason, nice guitar and I can't wait to see it and hear it. I might even want to play it, since i never seen a Mullen in person ! Jason plays a Day setup, so lowering 5+10 a half tone on the 4th pedal will work out perfect with the split tuning.
