Discontinued colors and pickguards?

[kissmyaxe]

ohh no not egyptian smoke...I was planning on switching my rosewood neck on one of those down the line when I had the extra $ , I think it would look soooooo sweet. I could still maybe do it knowing Firemist is discontinued too, would probably not lose any money even selling it with a nonoriginal neck

Which pickguards are going away? I might need to call Brandt and add to my order this week.

 

[roburado]

If you order it on Wednesday you know for sure there won't be any issues!

(yes, you can order it on Thursday before EB closes)

That's the way I ordered my Dargie--on the second to last day to make sure there wouldn't be issues.

With all the BFR stuff going on, I can see how certain colours would not pull their weight.
There's just too much to choose from.
I'm really surprised to see Olive Gold & Cabernet Pearl on the list.
I love those colours. I just can't put an order in at the moment. Oh well. Maybe used?

Are there going to be new colours to replace them???

That was my question too. I O W, will I ever be able to get a pink Bongo or Silo Special or Reflex

All we are saying, is give pink a chance. John Lennon

 

[buckethead777]

Desert Gold was canned as well, wasn't it?

 

[NorM]

NOT GRAPHITE PEARL! THAT WAS GONNA BE MY NEXT SILO! Oh well, you guys always come out with amazing colors, so I'm sure they will get replaced with something else totally loveable that I'll order it in.

Yes GraPhearl is cool

Sterling Silver is awesome! Just a thought ...

I never really thought about it that way.

I guess that is why you are the man.

Way cool call.

 

[Stratty316]

I don't know about you all... but I am really excited to see what colors are coming out next! Hopefully some cool bursts or translucent options for the Silo. And what about a BFR Silo Spec... I know BP said they will get to it (later is better for some of us- like me) but I can't wait for NAMM. EBMM never seems to let us down!

 

[spkirby]

You're right stratty, the silo / silo spec are crying out for more burst colours...

 

[bonez]

Egyptian Smoke wow i thought that was the best colour

 

[GWDavis28]

Such a shame, there were some very nice colors in the cut from my point of view.

I was hoping to get something at some point in Ice Blue.

Oh well, I'll have to wait and see what the new offerings are and take it from there.

RIP COLOR!

EBMM Customer service, which pickguards are going away?

 

[Big Poppa]

Please understand there will never be 27 standard colors again. WE are adding a few but this just got out of control.... Thirteen pickguards were too many especially when over 90% were two colors.

1) Orange Swirl
2) Gold Swirl
3) Blue Swirl
4) Moonstone
5) Blue Pearloid
6) Python
7)Abalone

Guys please get over it...n obody bought enough for it to be financially feasible to continue...WE have yet to discontinue a hot seller. Knee me in the groin if I do.

Anybody notice that Olive Green is discontinued? Its green. Unless it is a Dargie it doesnt sell.

 

[5Stringer]

So if I put in an order for a MM90 AL in Ice Blue or Egyptian Smoke with a really hip guard by Thursday I'd be good to go?!

Yes!

There may still be dealer NOS out there when you are ready. Right now we are not replacing them .. the idea is to sort of streamline things.

Yes .... it actually was canned at the 2008 Summer NAMM show. Orange Firemist sort of loosely replaced both it and Lava Pearl, and now it's going away too ....

Folks can still get most of these at pickguard heaven, if I'm not mistaken.
