Mine would be a Luke body with Morse neck and Floyd Rose in either white or Buttercream. It would be even better if it had a piezo floyd on it. I would either use EMG 85 with two SAVs or Dimarzio Breed and custom wound single coils from BG pickups.

Ooooh. A good question. I like all of the EBMM models that I have played exactly as they are. There are several models I've never played (Morse, Luke, JP7, Silhouette Bass, etc.), so I'd want to play them before I answer!!

Original Luke w/ the floating Floyd Rose and the option for different pickup configurations. I also wouldn't mind seeing an Axis w/ a floating Floyd rose either. Not to original, I know, but that's what I'd want.

Hmmm. So many things to consider. Right now, I'd say a standard JP6 body with a hardtail, Piezo, tone block, and an Axis neck profile. That would be pretty sweet! I'd keep the controls in the same place, but may move the 3-way switch back a bit (toward the bridge). Oh yeah, and I'd use the push-pull from the BFR. That's all :)

no inlays
Mohagany Body
Pacific Blueburst/Quilted Maple
trem/piezo
*Possibly* 3-way toggle with push/pull coil tapping as opposed to the 5-way switch
Clear-coat on the back/sides as opposed to black, or maybe PBB on that too...

OR

Silhouette Special
Maple fretboard/non-matching headstock
no inlays
Mohagany Body
H-S-S
trem
quilted top/trans blue (a bit darker than the usual trans blue though

I've thought long and hard about this (well, 2 minutes and I just had lunch, so it was hard to think).


Start with an Axis. Add a tone block. Chamber the body. I like the current Cherry burst today, so that on a quilt. Back of the body matches the white binding. White headstock. White volume knob labeled "Boost". Ok...here's the fun part. It would have a newly re-designed Floyd. Still drop only. Springs would be progressive (think of car springs....but reversed...hard at first, then softer). And tuning......would take current "Robot Guitar" technology to a new level. It would not only tune, but intonate and raise/lower the bridge to eliminate any buzz and of course.......it would rotate the neck truss rod wheel as necessary.

I think, I'd like 2 - (Hey it's fantasy) -
Firstly there was a fella did some work for Poppa, and he was gifted with a black AL with 2 emg Humbuckers, that guitar looks so amazing I'd love that....

And the 2nd would be a luke with a humbucker at the neck, coil tap and no middle coil...... or maybe a luke 12-string, that'd be so good!

but the black AL first, I wonder where that one ended up - it was an amazing concept, I think the tool put it on eBay the next day..... dork.

HH Luke would be the cats meow in terms of looks and heavy sound. But the neck pickup is hot enough already to get an almost H sound when overdriven.

Pearl Lavender SS 12 string with a 6+6 headstock rather than the long one on the double neck. And ONLY available left handed (I´m not holding my breath!!)

- SM-Y2D body w/clear pickguard,
- De-Purple Burst quilt finish (or perhaps a Red Burst quilt finish, ie. Rolls Burgundy (or purple) blending into Candy Red then into Radiance Red)),
- Standard SM-Y2D purple (or dark red or black) pickups (HSH) except the humbuckers have tapped coils and are controlled via a pull switch,
- Modified SM-Y2D pickup selector switch positions: 5=N, 4=N&B, 3=B, 2=M, 1=M&B,
- EBMM vintage tremolo,
- Silhouette 24-fret birds-eye maple neck with increased thickness (because I have very large hands)
- 24-high profile medium frets,
- Rosewood FB,
- Schaller M6-IND locking tuning machines,
- "Volt" signature on the headstock. lol :D
