If EBMM offered you a custom job...

[Slingy]

I'd take more variations of the Luke. HH hardtail, SSS with a smaller radius, etc.

[marduke]

JP BFR with the DD2 finish and arm contour, all RW neck.. mmmmm

 

[whitestrat]

Does that mean You have been offered something like this, Lionel? Oh, that's gonna cost a lot of watches !

Go for it!!! It has to be some sort of a silo then - if it was someone else, it would be harder to guess...

Well, if BP actually offered this to me, I think money wouldn't be something I'm consider a problem...I'd beg, steal or borrow just to get a custom job! I'd jump at the chance for sure... But alas... BP isn't motivated completely by money, you know?

Heheheheh...

I'm actually waiting for him to jump into this thread scolding me like he always does when I bring up the idea of custom jobs... Hahahahha...

 

[petruccirocks02]

If EB offered custom jobs, I'd have a JP BFR 6 & 7 both in the original Dargie finish (not the new one) with a JP shield at the first fret, BFR inlay at the 12th and Martini glasses at all the other marked frets. Also an ebony board.

I wasn't asking what you'd have made... I was asking if you'd pay a lot for it... I don't think anyone's asked that before...

That IS a different question.

I would expect for a truly custom instrument the price could get rather steep. It really all depends on what the options are. I would expect something in the $5K US range for something like this and I *might* pay that if I weren't so happy with the production model instruments which aren't nearly that much.

For a "custom" (one-off) production model guitar, I could see the price being a bit higher than a production guitar but not as high as a built-for-me custom. I'm thinking something in the same price range as a BFR (unless it's a custom BFR).

 

[HighGain510]

I'd take a one-off of some kind if they'd let me build it using current or previously available options. And here's what it'd be:

JP7 with solid mahogany body, solid painted in DD2, all rosewood neck, JP inlays, headstock painted to match, piezo, and the switching of the 25th.

I would buy that in a heartbeat, same specs! Really wish you could get the JP models in mahogany, man that would be tasty!

 

[MrMusashi]

hehe.. if they offered me a custom job id start by sweeping the floors and working my way up from there

MrM

ps: if it was them doing something for me id have a 4 hss stingray with unlined ebony fretboard, a 200$ piece of flamed maple for neck, a body covered with real gold and then a nice nitrofinish on top, no pickguard and rear mounted electronics... pfeww im starting to get picky

 

[spychocyco]

Actually, I did think of one. Most of the "custom" is cosmetic, but for an Axis in the Gold Roller color with black hardware and fleur-de-lis fret markers, I'd probably go deeply into debt.

 

[Stratty316]

Carved top Axis with Floyd (Non Floating)
Quilt Maple top in any BFR color currently offered or Emerald Green
Coil Tap abilities (Similar to Jimmy Page Les Paul)
Bass Wood with Mahogany Tone block (Like BFR) or Solid Mahogany body
BFR Rosewood neck

Wonder what BP has stashed away in that "vault"... bet I could find a nice new Ax in there to satisfy my G.A.S!... 'till the next time it strikes, that is.

 

[Coffeemug]

I'd love to see a BFR JP with the arm scoop AND a quilted maple top. I guess that could be done in the same manner PRS do their lower cutaways.

 

[dwells]

I'd take more variations of the Luke. HH hardtail, SSS with a smaller radius, etc.

yeah more Luke variations would be cool i would own probably another 4 Lukes if i could have humbuckers in the neck and maybe some passives too thats it !!! other wise the luke is perfect

 

[Tim O'Sullivan]

I would indeed order a custom one off. And it would be green!
