These are awesome!

Totally wish I were going to NAMM so I could see them live and in-person.

Thanks for the pics, Dargin. Made my week! :)

I know you said it was available in all 4 colors...you don't happen to have a pic of the JP in the blue, do you?

Those guitars look incredible. Man, JP made a lot of changes. Most surprising is the finished neck. With the push\pull option the JP's are now an all in one complete package. Incredible:D

I'd love to see the push\pull option on all the models.:D

I dont find the JP quilt and Flame tops that impressive.
For the price EB will charge for these limited models, I would expect a flame or quilt that would be AAAA.

Ernie Ball makes a fabulous product and when the Mystic Dream Color and some of the other colors came out it was a step forward in regards to the visual of Ernie Ball guitars.

But there is nothing special about these. They have the standard fade to black paint on the sides that look odd and I would have expected more textured tops.

The Black Quilt is very blasey, and the flames are nothing to be envious of.

Hi everyone,

It is my first trade on this forum even if I come looking here for a month to inform me about the new JP-F1.
I would have liked the blazing color that that used by JP during the Score DVD and the G3 tour. That color was gorgeous. I am speachless when I saw that guitar. Is that could be an optional color???

I agree with you about the flames; but the quilted JP7 in Walnut Burst still looks fantastic to me. Plus you have to see it in person before making the final judgment. I can understand what you are saying though. Something like these tops would look absolutely superb on the BFR's.

I still think EB is doing great job, and they can only get better and add more as time goes on.

Pricing:

Check with your preferred dealer on Thursday for pricing. All BFR's will have "10" tops. We no longer offer the upgrade top option. The pictures are quite compressed to fit onto this forum, so maybe the tops don't "pop" as hard as they do in person. These tops are also stained...

If EB could do some quilts like the 2 pictures you posted, they would be the sickest guitar company in the world.

They manufacture some of the best guitars I have ever played, but I would love to see them blow the walls off of the guitar market with quilts like you posted.

And Dargin thank you for clarifying that the pictures were compressed and did not do the guitars justice. And thanks for letting me state my opinion.

Another cool feature is push/pull that activates all four coils.

I'm not used whit that. What a push/pull doing for the coils?
Is that work for activate the coils of our choice like: only the coil #1 or #2, #3, #4 at the time like a single coil? Or or for other mix like #1 and#2 with #4 or somekind like that? What it takes to put it active or not?

Excuse my bad english :(

Still no pic of the blue JP? :( No big deal, I just need to see them side by side and make a choice! Thanks for the rest of the pics in any case.
