Question BFR guitars 2022

[AtypicalPaul]

Anyone know when the 2022 bfr guitars will drop?

If they are following the similar time frame from last year, March would be a guess.

Cool, that's what I'm thinking. I am in market for new guitar. Maybe I should wait until March see what they put out. Does anything get "leaked" talked about as to what they are working on or just like surprise!

Nice man. They use to do leaks, teases and sneak peaks, but that was a very long time ago. Keep an eye peeled on this web page:

Ball Family Reserve

www.music-man.com

There are usually posts here on the forum as well when people see they've dropped.

What exactly are you looking for?

Good luck, Glenn |B)

I'm looking for an ebmm with roasted neck,fingerboard and humbuckers in the mix. I like natural wood grain looks or quilted top.
I really like the axis with quilted top but there are some older bfrs I love but can't get now. The fall 21 JP15 7-STRING SUPLEX is gorgeous but I like 6 string guitars.

Well, that describes a number of models that are already available - the Axis, Axis SS, some Sabre models, some LIII models, just off the top of my head. They all feel pretty different as well.

Anything in particular you're looking for? That you're hoping for in the next BFR drop?

 

[AtypicalPaul]

Nothing specific per se just interested to see what they make as they are nicer and more unique than standard models.
Right now I like the axis the best. Love how the cutlass plays but not the sound. A Hss cutlass may have a lower end and little less "twangy/ snappy" but I've not been able to find one. Not a fan of how the Sabre cut look.

There's a pretty sweet Axis SS in the For Sale thread right now.

Looks like no HSS for BFRs anymore

Why do you say that? Love Hss or HHS.
Not a fan of sss or ss

Why would you say that? That's just one offering, one never knows what they are going to have.

I hope so. Its just that the current BFR only comes with HH and if you look at the market looks like HH are in general are more present in stores.

There are lot that love HH's over HSS, however, when you look at say Reverb, there are a lot of HSS Lukes available.

I think the man himself plays HSS nowadays so there is a hope!

I believe the plays both, depending on what he needs for the tune at the time, or how he's feeling. Keep your eyes peeled.

Off topic: Watched Toto show last night on YouTube. He pretty much played luscious green hss and grapes of wrath entire show. Riffier songs on the second one.

It's March so close to the new brf line up!
