So, what's the one EBMM you wish you bought, but you didn't or couldn't (because you didn't have the money, your wife would have divorced you, etc.)? Which one do you wish you had, but you couldn't have?

I suppose it could be a particular model in a particular configuration that's not available anymore like an EVH hardtail or Axis hardtail. It could be a guitar in a discontinued color. It could be a Benji. Whatever.

For me, 20th Silo with matching headstock and piezo. Either trem or hardtail. Quilt.

I had an opportunity to buy a Case queen EVH four days after i bought my 20th Silo... i had the money but didn't want to drop that much cash in that short amount of time. now looking back i could kick myself in the pants...

I regret not spending the extra $ for the piezo on both of mine. I know I'm going to love it on a future model.

Great question. Glacier Blue or Gremlin Green sparkle JP. The sparkles, especially such rare ones, went more or less unnoticed here in Germany.

Trying (and maybe buying) a Koa BFR JP7 one day would be fine, too, I think.

a Luke in luke blue colour, with matching headstock. it had been sold,when I called the shop.
nonetheless, I think when you sell a guitar, and you later regret it, that can be more depressing.

There is a couple:

Dargie Delight II JP6 - When I first saw one of these, I went insane over the looks. They were beautiful, and I could've gotten one, but I figure they were in BFR territory, so I happily bought my Mystic Dream JP6. I then found out the Dargie's were about the same cost....d'oh! I love my Mystic Dream, but the Dargie's are just stunners.

Albert Lee H-H/Trem - Exactly like the one Fing' posted in his NGD thread, Surf Green, Pearloid PG, 2 covered HB's, and a trem. I've loved the look of the H-H AL's since seeing Blues Saraceno playing one, and then when they came out with this one, I was pretty happy. Granted, I have a custom one spec'd out that I'd love to get even over the H-H version, but the H-H is pretty sweet.

(For those that wonder what my custom AL would look like....It would be this: )

*Swamp Ash AL body
*Birdseye maple neck with asymetrical neck profile, (kind of a cross between my JP6, an Axis, and my Samick Blues Saraceno model), a nice dark rosewood fretboard with 22 stainless steel frets and pearl dot inlays
*Chrome hardware
*MusicMan tremolo and Schaller locking tuners
*White pearloid pickguard
*H-S-S pickup configuration, with one volume control, one tone, and a 5 way switch
*Loaded with custom wound DiMarzio's to my specs, the neck and middle pickups being very glassy and smooth, yet still taking mid/high gain tones well when I need those, and the (nickel covered) bridge humbucker being a lower output pickup that has a lot of definition and clarity, really reacts to your volume control, cleans up well, is coil tappable, and really has that old school snarl when you hit it with some gain.
*solid colour Surf Green finish

My next one!

Having trouble deciding between a Morse and Morse Y2D, but I am definitely awaiting an announcement on the availability of Roasted Maple. Chambered or Solid? Trans Black or other color?

Hey, u talkin to me? NY
A Trans-Green Quilt Top ASS with birdseye maple neck/board, vintage trem, MH and OHSC-G&G:(. I was outbid by $20 the last minute when the auction ended at 2AM EST (I had to go to bed and I didn't think that I was going to be outbid). Man I really wanted that guitar.

Thanks for bumming me out this morning...

Slav:(

Hey King,
A dealer in my area still has a few Dargie II JP6's if there's any interest.
