Can someone let me know which EBMM models have been manufactured in Black Sugar finish please ?

Also did the JP have a varnished neck rather than oiled ?

Thanks

Since your need seems quite urgent, I'll chime in :D;)

As far as I know nearly all models where available in the black Sugar/roasted maple edition. What was actually produced depends on what was ordered by customers.
I have an AL HH that I love.

All guitars in this package have a finished neck instead of the usual gunstock oil/wax finish. Has quite a different feel to it.

Thank you for info, that explains very clearly.

It really is an Albert in Black Sugar I want hopefully with 3 single coil PUPs and a tremolo, if a piezzo as well a real treasure for me. Someone somewhere will have one I am sure

The black sugar/roasted birdseye maple necks were a limited run in 2010 with an order window of 1 month. Off the top of my head, I don't recall any models that were excluded from the builds but you may want to check with EBMM customer service on that. The necks all had a high gloss finish and came out awesome! I have a Bongo 4 H that was 1 of 3 or 4 made and I absolutely love it.

My black sugar roasted Axis is one of my favorite guitars. That was a legendary special run.

My Axis SS and 25th Anniversary are my favourite guitars by far so an Axix SS Black Sugar would be fabulous to add. I thought it was only Albert Lee Models !!

My wife got me mine for Christmas, love it, so glad she got it for me.

I really love the roasted neck with the Ebony fret board.
