FYI.... ButterCream ROCKS! (pics)

Personally, I could take it or leave it. But I really prefer guitars with bursts.

Of my 7 ebmm's only one is solid. The purple Luke. I like it. But I think a lot of folks don't dig purple guitars. Which is probably why you never see any.

Hey! I have a purple guitar! It happens to be another brand, but the color is "Deep Violet Flat". You know who likes this guitar? The ladies! Especially the younger crowd. Everytime I gig with it, girls comment on the guitar.. they love it.

So.. word to you single fellas out there..

You should see the Albert lee in BC

Now that, sir, would be a sight to see. Again, since the AL has a pickguard I'm sure that Buttercream works well with it.

I'll bet a Morse Y2D with clear pickguard wouldn't look as good in BC.

Jon,

You should post some pics for us!
You get to see everything.

Seems as if the buttercream is the same color of what GUITAR WORLD says is the most expensive guitar in the world, Jimi Hendrix's old strat, which they valued at 5 mil ( ) in the latest issue.

Looks pretty good with a maple fretboard.

Actually I was very torn as to whether I wanted to buy the BC Petrucci or the Y2D Morse. I think I made the right choice in the Morse, but I really do like the looks of the BC finish.

I know it's not the popular opinion but I like the color better without the pickguard. Very classy looking.

I agree Fred,

I once saw a PRS in that colour and the rosewood board looks fantastic against it. By far the best looking PRS I ever saw, had a natural mahogany headstock too and it was LUSH.

I'm looking forward to the call from my dealer letting me know when the ButterCream Luke he's ordered me is in. Got a feeling I'm just gonna love it!

Thanks for the pics

Man, I'm having case envy. My limited edtion Rad Red Pet didn't come with a case like that.

Ditto. Although my JP6 Limited in Envy Green came with a case that looks like you could drop it out of a plane (keep breathing, just a silly exageration of what the case looks like it could handle, I wouldn't really) and the guitar would still be in tune.

Did MM still stamp the neck plate like in 2004, and is that a decal on the back of the body below the neck plate that says: "Limited Edition 2005"?

I like it personally, I might like it better with a pickguard though, looks fairly classy. I'll bet it'll look even better once it starts to get a tad faded.

Now if only EB would start making the trans black axis in a ltd. ed. I'd be a happy camper.
