If you were allowed one modification on any current EB guitar, what would it be?

[Spudmurphy]

I like the idea of getting away from the fanboy thread and having a chat about EB guitars.
I know we have had a similar thread in the past, but here are the rules:-
You are only allowed to state one mod to one guitar not two not three mods - no exception!! - don't wanna end up with a frankenstein type of thing.

You could post more than one post but it has to be one mod to one particular guitar / bass.

Who knows EB R & D team might like your idea ha!

I'll start:-
I'd like a F hole chamber in an AL - just like the F3nder Thinline.

I'm thinking a 12 string AL

I'd like to have thar scoop as modification on a JP BFR - so it would be a combination of classical JP's ergonomy combined with the optical mojo of the BFG. Best of both worlds so to say ...

 

[greenwizard]

I'd take a BFR JP with a a widened neck. I have big hands and I started playing the guitar on a wide-neck classical, so I'm more used to the extra space. I don't mean a thicker neck, I love how thin the JP is, I mean wider.
That would be cool.

 

[greenwizard]

Oh and I would modify JP's prototype from score. It would be exactly the same,
the only difference being that it would belong to me!

 

[Spudmurphy]

Cool ideas - sticking to the rules too, huh!

A coffee cup holder on my Silo.

 

[greenwizard]

^^So you can have a cuppa while playing legato...

Larger frets in the Luke, it really would feel better to me...

 

[pantalaimon]

I'd have my own inlays, although I cant imagine how they'd look like...

 

[d-bone]

Same as LUKE 1

Graphic option

I've been close to pulling the trigger on a floyded Axis just to send it off for a checkerboard refin on the top and headstock.

I'd say offering a couple graphic choices would be cool.

 

[jeffrey]

I have a few:

Rosewood Axis with a 7 string option and the JP trem and arm relief.

That's 3 for 1. s

 

[fsmith]

Rosewood fretboard on an AL... in honeyburst. I'd order one today.

 

[Dead-Eye]

Semi-Hollow Axis
and just before I opened the forum I thought it would be nice to have a 7-string "strat", so 7-string AL oder Silo Spec. would be great too.

But I guess these rather qualify as totally new models instead of mods...

I didn't get to play one yet, but I imagine the lack of a piezo switch on the AL would bother me a bit, so that's what I'd like to see

 

[leftyguitarblue]

I have one BIG modification, a left handed JP. (Sorry, not following the rules exactly, but technically it's a mod. ) Sorry Spud.

Tough time filling in the 4 week holiday eh Spud?

Just one? Hmm, I guess it would have to be an oil rubbed body (on the guitar!!!)
