Artisan Majesty Teaser.....

wow, that's a beauty!!!
but this one has not been made to be rocked on stages, this should have its place in a glas case with decent lightning in the living-room.

It is great eye candy for sure!
 
Guess I'm gonna be the odd man out on this one. It took a few days to gather my thoughts after the teaser, but here we go.

Before I start, I am a big fan of the Majesty. 6 string Polar Noir is sitting downstairs as I type this.

JP said on the official reveal video that they were going for a "race car" look. I really felt that vibe as I looked at the guitar.

The artisan look seems to contradict this aesthetic paradigm. I don't dislike it, but I don't like it either.

Its funny how polarizing the Majesty is. On another forum, people who really hated the "shovel" seem to really love this artisan version. The "shovel" never bothered me personally. It seems to me, the "shovel" is still there, but instead of a faux carbon fiber, it's now showing up as a wood grain.

I hope this artisan version is a success. It is enjoyable to see innovation get rewarded.

For myself, BP is still gonna get more money out of me. My Majesty needs a 7-string sibling. I'm hoping that Royal Purple they did for the Arlington show becomes an option. Otherwise, it's going to be an Arctic Dream.
 
anger and negativity are the unforntuate byproduct of the internet. Im not here near as much....I give information and honest perspective from a life in the business and its not worth it. The amount of venom when we showed this had everybody shook...even JP....everyone but me. Im used to the effects of significant change...I can tell you that the Majesty is very close to the most successful product introduction in our history.

I cant focus on the haters....All we are doing is giving the world another choice...why the venom we didnt take a guitar away to introduce this....we added another selection...if it works for you thanks and it was worth it...if it doesnt work for you why the anger? Are you up-set when a new cereal hits the shelf? Beer? Should we never do anything new?
 
I really want to see the other colors. If they're as good as this first teaser then it looks like I'll be getting a majesty!
 
:eek: I haven't seen any haters in this thread regarding the Artisan Majesty yet. In fact, I think this is the most successful teaser EBMM has ever pulled off

This. It seems that people react more strongly to EBMM than any other guitar manufacturer and I really can't understand why. I guess they are just locked into a traditional guitar design mentality and can't handle it when something challenges their expectations of what an electric guitar can, and ultimately should, do.
 
BP, we are 7 pages into this thread. PLEASE show us some more. Also, will this Artisan line be available to see at NAMM?
