EBMM has now officially entered the realm of boutique.

Not as long as the team is still using real wood, rather than purplethrobbervein, squashedturdwood or those other exotic "timbers" used by "boutique" manufacturers.

Have to differ with you there (at least based on that definition), when you are dealing with mahogany and figured maple go there isn't that much difference between that and what a lot of boutique builders do. Mahogany can be just as pricey and is becoming increasingly hard to find in good quantities cheap.

Egad, they're a bunch of mad geniuses out there in SLOtown!

True. My point was that mahogany and maple are both "real" wood, unlike some of the driftwood and infected timbers some companies use

[Road Pop]

[Kirby]

If you make that in a single H, sign me up. Please tell me how to order and I will be on the phone to Corner Music in Nashville!

 

[strummer]

Oh, what a beauty!
I too am really most impressed with the old bridges, that is really special!

 

[Bill]

*Runs quickly to see how much old musical crap he can sell to fund this bass*

 

[delberthot]

I may be alone, either that or others are scared to admit they don't know either but - what does BFR mean?

I tried doing a search but it is too short to use the search function

Cheers
