I am thinking about buying a JP. I already know I'm getting one eventually, but graduation is coming up, and that means lots of money from relatives:D. I also received a big scholarship to high school, which has made a lot of people in my family proud of me, so...you get the picture. But anyway, that money, combined with all the money I have now, combined with other money I might make during the summer, and the sale on Bass Central...I may just have enough for a JP6:).

So I was looking at colors, and so far, Graphite Pearl has been my favorite. Lately I've also been digging Sapphire Black, and am starting to like Egyptian Smoke...just something that strikes me about that color, don't really know how to explain it, but it just looks like an Ernie Ball, you know? Probably not, but whatever haha.

I have seen all these colors in person on Bongos at Guitar Center, but not on a JP. I just like Graphite Pearl, it is such a cool color. Don't like Sapphire Black as much, but on a JP, I can just imagine it looking delicious, I'm usually like darker colors. But some pictures of Sapphire Black JPs look awesome, but some don't look as awesome. Same for the Graphite Pearl. Sometimes it looks silver, which I absolutely love, but some look more blackish, you probably know what I mean. And then Egyptian Smoke, well, all I can say is "me likey :)"

*out of breath* So to sum it up, how do the colors actually look on a JP in person, and what would you recommend? Also, pics would be nice...Fogman, please!;)

I actually like all three of them... but if I had to choose, I'd have to go with Graphite Pearl. :cool:

Do a search. There's at least a couple thread from not too long ago that should have a number of these pics.
 
you might as well add lava pearl as the 4th option. that color on a jp is special.
its a winner no matter who gets picked.
 
Egyptian Smoke FTW.

I was debating that and Graphite Pearl and I'm really happy with my decision.
 
Hands down Egyptian Smoke is the way to go. You cant really tell in photos but it has like gold, green and red flake in it, amazing in light and person.
 
I have ordered an egyptian smoke jp6 fully loaded....so.....:D

I'm waiting....:(
 
I'm gonna chime in here and tell you to go with the Egyptian Smoke. It is the most under rated/understood finish that EBMM offers. There are hints of greys and greens and yellows in the finish. It's one of my favorites.
