Anyone pick up a 2019 Majesty yet? :)

[grantgochnauer]

I mean they have been on sale for 5 days now right I've seen a couple of reviews on YouTube so far and am eager to hear everyone's opinion/review.

I'm currently contemplating the Blue Honu one to replace my 1996 Parker Fly Deluxe (prerefined).

Hi Grant, welcome aboard! The Blue Honu is very impressive in person, nice choice for a color! The first 2019 Majesty we have had come through is a Dark Roast, and it's awesome - I'm very tempted to keep it even though I'm a big fan of blue guitars. We've got a Tiger Eye arriving for inventory next Friday, with a Stealth shortly behind, and then more of the new stuff after those arrive.

While I don't have any of the recent Monarchy series here to compare it to, I do have an Artisan and my BFR gold sparkle. If the Dark Roast hasn't sold by next week I'll try and do a quick comparison video.

Wow, that’s gorgeous! I had a hard time deciding on a color and ended up ordering the Enchanted Forest. It’s supposed to arrive next week.

Absolutely gorgeous! I'm so close to pulling the trigger on the Blue Honu to complement my blue Parker Fly: but it's still $3500!

I pulled the trigger on a 7 string Enchanted Forest from Sweetwater. Probably be at least a week or 2 they said, frankly I was surprised it would be anywhere near that quick. This will be my first EBMM instrument, although I have logged a good number of hours on stingray bass guitars over the years, I have never actually owned one. I am very excited!

I’m glad I got this finish. It’s amazing! The guitar itself is an absolute joy to play and hear. I bonded with it for immediately. Ok, back to playing some more...

Tremendous!

Thanks Pete! I just wish I had your photography skills...
This is by far my favorite JP! On the bass notes, it sounds like my other JPs, but on the high notes, it's a bit sweeter and I don't have to trim off a bit of treble. Clean, dirty, it just sings. I didn't think that I'd be able to hear the pickup tweaks but I do.
The body is so comfortable and light yet is sustains and has that woody sound that I love.
EBMM, JP... Thanks for designing and making this guitar! Ok, enough gushing, back to more playing...

Congratulations, very pretty!! This finish would be a great addition to the Monarchy line. The Dark Roast as well. Too bad they discontinued it.

Thanks Johnny! I'm so impressed with the Majesty overall that I'm seriously considering selling a few guitars to fund a Tiger Eye.

Sounds like a plan!! As long as you don't regret selling the guitars. You could also go for a payment plan maybe? And retain the guitars.

I rarely regret selling guitars, as long as I'm moving up and forward and adapting to my ever-changing tastes. I l see from your list that you have one on the way. Cheers!

Go for it then, it's bound to be one of the most impressive looks on a Majesty so far =D

Jesse.Daly - when did you order yours?
I ordered my Enchanted Forest on April 4th, but nothing yet.

Enchanted Forest and Kinetic Blue look the best to me. Goodness that’s a hard choice especially since I love basswood body guitars.
