    Ding ding ding!

    Many thanks in anticipation.
    Actually JP requested that we not produce the color as he thinks it is too stodgy. WE decided to simplify and offer the same four colors for both the Lukes and Jp F-1. Also on the heels of the sil20th we didnt want to produce a ltd or bfr that too closely resemble the 20th's

    Keep in mind that the BFR models will change quite often....

    Can't wait to see some BFR Sterling love or some Albert Lee love! I really appreciate you guys showing us these before everyone else - it's this kind of thing and the personal attention that really makes this place special. In return, I'll try and commit to helping towards the purchase of a new pair of shoes for BP this year

    I love this place.

    (and yes, I have been drinking)
    Azzy doll, we need that lump Trev to get on the bandwagon!

    Just hoping BP or someone else in the know could tell us a bit about how the F-1 ended up with a finished neck. It's an interesting change considering the player.

    Also, I have a feeling you folks will be doing alot of Bahama Blueburst this year. Good luck at NAMM.

    I thought that it was already answered... Mahogony necks have to have some sort of finish on them... I know I can't think of a guitar that has ever had an unfinished Mahogony neck anyway.

    It won't feel any different than the Ibanez JPM did once the satin was worn smooth really. It doesn't seem all that shocking to me I guess.

    Gosh, I just can't wait to hear one... When JP brings out the proto on Score, you can litterally hear the differnece... but now that it has a mahog neck... I really wonder how it will sound.

    if they ever hit our shores, they might be so limited they'll be a CLB auction. i guess i'm getting too far ahead of myself, but i can dream of the ultimate AL!

    I know I know I'm working on it! He believes that there are better things he can spend our money on at the moment rather such a frivolous item as a guitar, but I'm going to convince him otherwise. Well, I'll actually put down the deposit behind his back so he then has no choice, but shhhhhh you didn't hear me say that

    Dave he DID want to walk out with it, but he wants his first AL to be made for him, and to be exactly what he wants, which is fair enough. That cherryburst wasn't far off tho!

    Now you all know my plan, wait for me to put it into action in the next few months mwah ha ha

    Sure it's a nice guitar, but through that rig? I'd question that. With that amount of gain (and i do like JP's sound) I think it would be hard to hear the subtle differences in tone between the regular JP and his "sitrucci". Doesn't sound much different to me. However, I do think the F-1's will be different sounding to regular JP's. Will the F-1's always be part of the BFR range? IS the BFR thing going to be permanent?
    Carlsberg don't make guitars. But if they did they would probably...........not be as good as a musicman!!

    What does "stodgy" mean? Is it a cross between "stupid" and "dodgy"?
