Are we allowed to speculate? (LE Related)

[Bass Control]

EBMM has annually spoiled us for the past several years with exciting new offerings in the way of limited edition instruments or runs. Heres a brief recap of the past few years.

2006 - Black and Gold
2007 - Blue Dawn, Dargie Delight I
2008 - Sequoia Gold, Rosewood Necks
2009 - Dargie Delight II
2010 - Roasted Maple

So, what is up for this year? Was the True Gold Luke this years LE? Did we miss it with the 19mm Stingray 5 (not trying to reopen that can of worms)? Will we see a DD3? Will future LEs come in the form of Premier Dealer Network instruments?

I'm curious because my wallet is itching and I haven't seen anything since the Roasteds that have peaked my interest.

I've been wondering the same thing but was afraid to ask.

Who knows what treats lie in store for us from the mad geniuses at Music Man?

My guess is The Wise And Powerful Dargin!

 

[rutgart]

Maybe they'll hold off till the 50th Ann' of EB (surely you've noticed the count down on the EB site!?)

 

[Lynottfan]

Wild speculation (and request) An all white Ray ala homage to Larry Graham (not likely I know, maybe stick to my normal bleat for a graphite neck, my Ray is getting lonely!!)


Good times.

2010 wasnt a designated yearly le it was a BFR..We dont have any plans for a le this year again...sorry up to our bottoms

 

[MadMatt]

Ahw man, that just devastated my secret hopes of a big al with a quilted maple deck, roasted neck, ebony FB and black stealth HW! upps... And i almost forgot... TRIPLE HUMBUCKERS (Mwhahahahahah)

 

[Bass Control]

I was counting BFRs (assuming BFR is kinda the new LE) with the timeline.

Even so, still excited to see what might come of the future (even if we don't get one this year). Thanks for the input BP!

 

[Aussie Mark]

I was hoping the 2011 LE would be an SR5 with 19mm spacing, just for kicks.

 

[Big Poppa]

hahahahahah

 

[bovinehost]

How fun would THAT be?

 

[DTG]

I would buy one in a new York....... Ah no can't bring myself to say it

 

[Movielife]

A 19mm SR5? Wow, these would sell by the bucket load. Hundreds will flock and buy one 'in a New York minute'.



Oh hang on...

With the EBMM crue so busy this year - 2012 will be awesome. Start saving.

With the EBMM crue so busy this year - 20XX will be awesome. Start saving.

This statement is always true.

 

[projectapollo]

I need a Big Al with rosewood neck and trans finish.

 

[projectapollo]

Don't forget to add the 25th BFR run of 25 basses to the list. Was that 2009?

 

[MK Bass Weed]

I'd love to see the entire BASS line in an natural finish, like the original, how cool would that poster look, starting with a classic Ray all the way to the game changer, (Bongo too)!

 

[adouglas]

I think BP should borrow a page from the hoary old Detroit playbook and issue Limited Editions that are nothing more than a stock product with a cheesy decal package. Look! Bold New Graphics!

Like the "Indy 500 Official Pace Cars" that GM would bring out every year. Anyone here old enough to remember the "Olympic Edition" Fords in 1976?

We could have a "National Debt" edition with a digit at every fret position from 1 to 12... oh, wait, that's not enough.....

Maybe a vote can be taken on who has the most unique bass on the forum and that can be designated as the LE of the year. (Very limited - as in 1)

I'm not sure what kind of award goes with the title but I'm thinking that the honor itself would be enough!
