I'd trade my pink axis for that lava ASS in a heartbeat.

Right. That's an exclusive run for Willcutt. Those guys do some solid exclusive runs.

They definitely do. Back when Hamer was still around, they were one of the few places that were able to convince Jol Dantzig at Hamer to do special runs. They did a bunch of three mini-hb Explorer type guitars that were incredible.

Interesting...only one hardtail in the lot. Do you not like hardtails? Stunning collection.

I think there are two hardtails, dibart77 just got the December 202 BFR which is a hardtail.

He is a huge trem fan obviously, his collection is fantastic!

Actually, there is only one hardtail, the Dec 2020 ASS Semi-Hollow Buttery Blond. That's the only hardtail electric guitar I own, besides the Silhouette Bass Guitar, two Bongo basses, one other non-EBMM bass, and some acoustics.

My bad for some reason I thought this one, Vintage Burst MM90 Piezo, was a hardtail as well, still all killer!!

What's the 2020 hard tail sound like? Beautiful guitar (aren't they all?) - I was tempted, but as I was looking for what would be my no. 1 guitar, I just couldn't go with one pickup and no trem. But I've wondered what the tone and voicing was on that Buttery Blond.

Er.... I told everyone I would record a video of me playing it. Didn't do it yet. Super busy. Maybe this weekend. In the meantime you can check out my post here where I describe it.

Also interesting the neck on the Buttery Blonde does not appear to have the typical oil/wax finish...but a gloss clear coat.

All EBMM guitars with a bound neck will have a finished neck, not an oiled neck.

That was TEN YEARS AGO already????? That scares me.
