The only EBMMs I can't really get on with looks-wise are Trans Gold Axises. That color's never really been my thing.

EBMM guitars in general, when seen next to other guitars on the wall, are works of art. They're all beautiful in their own ways. I love the graceful, sleek lines of my Gunsmoke Pearl Silo Spec and the bold, authoritative look of my Axis SS in Black Cherry Burst.

The futuristic angles of the Albert Lee, the fluid sweeps of the JP models, they're all great.

My favorite color is the trans green they did for the EVH and limited edition Axis in 2000. Island boy has one in the for sale thread and I'll post a pic of mine when I get home. I also love the honeyburst color on the Evh and anything in dark cherryburst.

My Cabernet Pearl Axis Super Sport is my favorite...ok sure I just got it and the honeymoon just started, but it's one of the most beautiful guitars I've ever seen in person..I can't stop looking at it. My other Super Sport with it's sexy quilted top is a very close 2nd...it gets better looking at the years go by.

Pretty much anything in Pacific Blueburst. Period.

There are some nice tops combined with Tobacco Burst, especially BFR Petruccis before the color was discontinued.

I like alot, too many to mention. Every couple of days someone blows me away with a NGD thread.

Two guitars come to mind. 1 is Coffeemug’s Honey Burst AL & 2 is my old Honey Burst ASS that got away.

The 25th is just right in so many ways. Though I think overall it has to be the EVH based on it flooring me from the first time I saw it and played it.

One thing I'd love to see is a Morse/Y2D hybrid - a Y2D Morse with the 4 pickups as on the standard Morse. In Trans-White/Mary Kay White with Roasted Maple...yummy.

David... super sweet. What is that? Honey Burst?

Slav... yours just suck. :p:rolleyes:

Indeed honeyburst according to EBMM record but very dark compared to some others

This guitar got a story.

Someone in the US won it at a battle of band contest. I know it's a shame to sell something you have won but this guy decided to do so.

he sold it on Ebay brand new but I was to slow to decide and another guy got it. Luckily he was French, I purchase from him 2 weeks after he got it cause he decided to go for another brand

Thats a cool story, how fortunate for you that it ended up that way. Its looks nothing like the Honey Burst I posted. My old guitar looks like Cherry Burst.
