Off Topic 2015 Vintage Tobacco Burst PDN: Who ordered what?

[dave1812]

So the Door to Order an Instrument from the Latest PDN Offering is closing soon
What did you Guys order?

I couldn't decide Between a BFR JP Koa and a Bongo 5HH
I went for the Bongo since I wanted one for some Time now, and I love the more Natural Finish on it
The JP Koa was just too expensive for me right now, even though I would have Loved to get one with the Unfinished Flamed Maple Neck

Couldn't pull the trigger due to my recent purchase and my ownership of another tobacco burst. Can't wait to see what others have ordered.

Nothing this time. My wallet is empty

I also didn't order anything because stainless frets weren't part of the package. Otherwise a Y2D Floyd would have been on its way...

SS frets should really be standard on these packages.

How is this post off-topic?

 

[Eric O'Reilly]

Agreed

Or at least an option.

I clicked the wrong Prefix, and can't change it afterwards...

Wait a Sec. Did this Package not include SS Frets ?!?

 

[dave1812]

Damn, i just re-read the Ad. I thought all Models had Stainless Steel like the last PDNs

 

[DrewH]

I know that not all people want SS frets but you are paying a premium for these packages and thus should come with all of the premium upgrades.

I got creative with my order this time around, looking forward to seeing what September brings!

Hmmm. I'm scared to even guess......

Slightly off-topic but was this "Vintage Tobacco Burst" the same finish as the old "Tobacco Burst" finish that existed on the BFRs a few years back?

From another thread:

Hey A.J.,

What's the difference between this Tobacco Burst finish and the normal EBMM Tobacco Burst finish that's offered on most models? What am I missing? Just the alder body and tinted neck, or is something different about the finish?

Hey Jeff,

Differences:
-Middle color is different, we use a vintage tint, compared to trans gold on the standard tobacco burst
-Burst is black for this run instead of dark brown on standard tobacco. It is also thin/tighter/closer to the edge
-All models with binding will have bursted backs, such as Axis


Note: necks are figured maple

From another thread:

Yep, saw that! Actually I posted my question before dibart but I guess the CS was watching that thread more closely Thanks for pointing it out!

 

[MesaBeno]

Really hope someone managed to get one of these:

I ordered nothing. Couldn't pull the trigger on a PDN without SS Frets, and I don't need another Axis with a Rosewood board! If I could get the SS and the tinted neck...
