I had one for a brief period. I bought it used from Guitar Center Hollywood. I thought it was a bit overpriced and the finish was badly damaged, (not EBMM's fault, as it was used) but I bought it anyways.

I liked it. Great playing guitar, a little on that bright side, but that's a pickup change away. Overall a solid guitar for rock. Very utilitarian.

I returned it a few weeks later as I'd managed to get a deal on a beautiful Axis SS for only a hundred bucks more. But had I not gotten the deal on the Axis I would've likely kept it.

I played one before, it's basically just a Silhouette Special with only one humbucker and custom color. Now I love the Silhouette Special, so I think I would like the BM just as much... although I would definitely put in a neck pickup.

Thanks again guys I just found out it arrived in Austin and I can go pick it up tomorrow so I will be able to start a NGD thread of my own, I got an Axis Super Sport a couple of months ago but didn't have the time to post bc we moved to a new house and everything was CRAZY for a bit but tomorrow I promise pics of both guitars Thanks to everybody on this forum this is really a great place

You'll love it, I'm sure. I would love to have one! Another tool in the toolbox.

Great student guitar? It's more than that. I think Mr. Walsh would agree.

That is just awesome!!!! Joe Walsh... Dude. Joe Walsh! For the king of i'll play what I want, how do you find higher praise than that?! The fact that EBMM guitars are consistently in his arsenal speaks volumes.

 

[billpepper82]

You guys are right it is a awesome guitar it looks and sounds great I couldn't be happier and the fact that Walsh plays one is incredible as I have always liked his music thanks again guys
