Completed My EBMM Guitar Photo Album!

[MPM]

Very nice collection!

 

[Slingy]

Wait, Tobacco Burst finish is offered on regular and BFR Axis models, since the Rosewood neck has a BFR logo too, you sure there's a tone block in there? Either way just killer, love the photos.

This is why I have a pic of the BFR COA for the guitar in my album:

I guess I need to get a sticker that says "Tone Block Inside" and stick it on the guitar. I just hope that Intel doesn't sue me...

Oh, my God, that is huge. congrats, very very nice collections you got
are you a professional musician since you own so many guitars?
or is just an addiction to have as many as possible ?

best regards,

Paul

Thanks Paul, I'm a professional basement musician (only in my house)
I don't consider the amount of guitars that I own and play as a lot of guitars. As long as you can afford them and have room for them, there's no such thing as too many guitars...Please don't tell my wife that I had said that

hahahaha, great answer Slav, that was very funny, I am laughing for almost 2 minutes after reading your answer
it is true, if you can afford you buy them lucky you
they look all fabulous and I am sure they play the same.
i like very much those with maple neck and maple fretboard. a friend of mine from Hungary has a Carvin with maple neck, fretboard and is just great
here is a link [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bAQgfz2G1RU"]YouTube - Edda Művek és Jani J. Szentkirályi - The Pump - ZP Budapest[/ame] but ironically here is with the other Carvin....but the other guitarist plays LUke (sorry for of topic)

Very nice collection. Love the trans blue and gold Axis guitars.

Slav

Yeah but I have the COA too. And I'm 100% sure I do not have the tone block as it would have cost much more money that I could not afford. That is why I ask because you say they sound the same.

 

[Slav123]

OK, BFR update. After Slingy's post I started to doubt that I had a full BFR so, I called EBMM CS.

It's NOT a full BFR, it's part of a limited run of ASS' with BFR RW necks. I was slightly misinformed by my local GC. I was told by CS that my guitar was actually more rare then the full BFR due to the small # of guitars produced with a BFR RW neck and the fact that this is no longer an option. The full BFR guitars can still be ordered but you can no longer get a BFR RW neck on any guitar. COA's were included with these limited run guitars since they used BFR RW necks. There is also a $1K price difference too (and I thought that I got a sick deal on the guitar).

That guitar is a 100% BFR. Remember BRF stands for Ball Family Reserve. They made that limited RW Neck neck run and that made it a BFR BP said once that BFR does not equal tone block. It is what ever they want it to be. IE the 25th is no BFR yet it has a tone block in it. And, I hear the 25th and ASS BFR sound fairly different.

So my original question returns how diff is you RW necked ASS (which has a maple top) from you all RW ASS (whish has both the RW neck and Top)?

Very nice collection. Love the ASS w/RW neck.

You make a great point Otto, Thanks.

In reference to the two guitars sounding different, it's not a huge difference and I really had to pay close attention to it but the ASS with the BFR RW neck and maple quilt top sounded a bit brighter and more trebley. Although again, it wasn't a huge difference (to me anyway) and the vintage trem especially its route in/through the body probably makes a bigger sound difference than the thin maple top...

Slav

Thanks

I forgot to mention that the guitar does say " Custom Made " on the neck plate.

These RW neck models are probably even more collectible than the regular BFR models imo. I really love mine and it's uniqueness makes it a good investment.
