Looking at the JP BFR page, and the cherry burst looks like the updated model- no BFR inlay, but no CrunchLab! Does this mean that the BFRs are getting the new pickups?

Would be awesome to get some insight into this!

Interesting Question, the Pic of the Ruby Burst BFR is also not equipped with the BFR Inlay and the Crunchlab.

hmmm, interesting. I thought that only the JP13 was set to receive the new pickup because of the preamp only. But, either way, that's cool. If John wants them in the BFR's, well then. That's that! Anyone around to confirm if the new pickups will be on all 2013 models?

Those were just funky photos. Only the JP13, at this time, gets the new pickups.

I spend at least 3% of all my time looking at music man guitars online. I spend at least 10% of my total time playing them. Haha. I notice every detail too!

Also, why are the Switches on the Cherry Burst pic, set differently than the Switches on the Ruby Burst ? :D
I believe the Volumeknob isn't turned all the Way on the Cherry Burst :D
just kiddin'
But there's something else I'm kinda interested in. How are those Pics taken? Is the white Background photoshopped, or is there a real photostudio at the factory?

Someone posted pics of the photobooth back in '07-08 or so, it was pretty neat (Andy Olson?). Neutral/white background with supersized suction cups for holding the instrument.
