A few pics from NAMM 2018

[PeteDuBaldo]

I'll keep updating the first few posts today and tomorrow, but for now here's a few shots of some new stuff on the floor at the EBMM booth!

(there are more photos on our site in the NAMM 2018 gallery, and on some of the product pages for the new instruments)

Roasted and figured maple necks on StingRay guitars

Same for the Cutlass!

New color on the L3 (flame or quilt, choices of HH or HSS) - this model has now replaced the L2 which is no longer offered.

Another new color on the L3, Buttermilk, again choice of HH or HSS

New JP15 color

New colors and tremolo option on Valentine guitars

New colors and some HH models on St Vincent guitars

The JP lineup has been changed slightly.

JP6 models now only come loaded (matching headstock, piezo, JP shield inlays) and now have matte black hardware!
Colors are Mystic Dream, Pearl Redburst, Firemist Purple, Firemist Gold, and Stealth Black



JPX, JP12, JP13, JP16 are discontinued, JPXI still available (black onyx) as well as JP15 (teal, sahara, and now trans black, all choice of flame or quilt)

Majesty/artisan/monarchy series are pretty close to last year's offerings

I wasn't fast enough to grab a photo of the insanely light StingRay in Burnt Apple because Tony Levin snatched it up.

New colors on the revamped StingRay/SR5 are: Jet Black, Burnt Apple, Charcoal Sparkle, Cruz Teal, Chopper Blue, Charging Green, HD Yellow, Ivory White, Aqua Sparkle

Hey Pete, is the St.Vincent HH in Blue Dawn available with the ebony fingerboard?

 

[beej]

Thanks Pete!

 

[mistercharlie]

That “sonic blue” st Vincent is fantastic. It just needs a mint-green plate...

 

[ErnieJohn]

I was really enjoying this thread until you said the Luke II is no longer available!

 

[Dr.Strangenote]

hmm, buttermilk.. will we see that on the JP, like in 2005?

 

[Bryan]

They don't have the L3 in Firemist Purple?

Thanks for sharing these pics! The 2018 Lineup looks awesome.

 

[Pott]

None of the new amazing colors available on the AL HH. No Blue Dawn, no Sparkle, no Firemist Purple.
JPs only being loaded is disappointing too for those not fan of the shields.

That new JP15 looks insanely good.

I was really enjoying this thread until you said the Luke II is no longer available!

The Luke II hasn't been available for years last I checked. The Luke and Luke III still are.

Anyway.. BLUE DAWN.

 

[MesaBeno]

Guess we're waiting minimum another year for a possible JP8 or Jason Richardson model...

 

[xjbebop]

Thanks Pete... awesomeness!!!

 

[Gundar]

Absolutely stunning! Thank you.

Nice Pete, love that vintage burst AL, would be even better in a hardtail

 

[Sweat]

The Luke II hasn't been available for years last I checked. The Luke and Luke III still are.

Anyway.. BLUE DAWN.

Thats not true they were available until the end of 2017. You just did not see many new ones for sale unless you ordered one from a dealer. I bought one in mid 2016 new from Sam Ash. I have it listed in the for sale thread, love a Luke II but I have a very special 2017 NAMM piece coming soon that I need to pay for

JP6 models now only come loaded (matching headstock, piezo, JP shield inlays) and now have matte black hardware!
Colors are Mystic Dream, Pearl Redburst, Firemist Purple, Firemist Gold, and Stealth Black

thanks Pete

But I didn't see EBMM said the new JP6's were gonna be avail in Firemist Gold... are you sure on this one?
