So I have a couple of questions. One might affect when I order, the other is just a curiosity thing.

First for the potential delay causing question.... colors. There haven't been any color changes on the chart for a couple of years now, so I'm wondering if there is a possibility that new colors are on the horizon (I so want the mystic dream purple shade only color I can't even stand myself. lol) that I should wait to check out. I had Desert Gold, and the only color I can think of that MIGHT cause me to wait would be that kind of purple since I love DG so much.

My other question is about the pickup. I had the original JP7 pickup. That is now in some thief's hands and I don't have any access to it, but am I feeling a sense of sentimental nostalgia for my old pickup for nothing?

I've always preferred the Steve Special in my Ibanez to the revamped version, but I still liked how it was still relatively close overall when I switched guitars.

I can't believe my second Music Man purchase isn't a six string to go along with my 7, but a replacement for a stolen instrument. Add to that how long insurance took to decide anything, and now there is no way I can get one made in time for an upcoming gig that I really need it for. I'd sure like to skin whoever broke in to our house that's for sure.

Anyway, thanks for the advice, thoughts, and education in advance folks... :)

Graphite Pearl looks SWEET, as well as PRB. I'm kicking myself for not getting MD though to be honest.

I think the DSonic does the 7 quite well. It gives you a nice across the string balance.

I'm guessing the overwhelming lack of response on question one means that there are no new colors potentially on the horizon... lol

I don't know why I'm concerned about the pickup thing.. I"m sure it's fine...

Hey bro, maybe you should wait until the 2008 LE comes around ;)

I'm sure the crew will have something sweet for us :D

The only problem with that is... I need a 7 string pretty badly for our setlist. Why can't we already be established so people would be rushing to my aide to loan me guitars, or even endorsed and find one in the mail tomorrow? LOL

I would be more than slightly interested to have a hint in my PM box of what the 08 LE will be, or maybe a future forum special a la Dargie Delight... *cough* LOL

I miss it a lot... definitely one of the more unique colors. People asked me about it all the time..."What is that?!" LOL I'd love to have DG and Lava Pearl. I saw those two colors side by side at a Guitar Center once, and they are born to compliment each other on Petrucci's in my possession. LOL :)
