Look what was waiting for me when I got to the office!
Dargie and Dudley made me a proto. It is LIGHT! This is the lightest Mahog guitair Ive seen in years. They decided that I needed this. It is beautiful and really sounds great The burst is fantastic!

NoRM's co workers speed dialing 911 because he just passed out.
 
That is sooooooo schweeeeet.

BP you are one lucky son of a ........ (in a nice way :D )

Must make you proud to go to work!

Dave

P.S. You were right that AL did have my name on it........
 
BP that's awesome! Must sound real nice with the Mahog body. And by the way that's basically what I have LOOKS wise. I just love the V Sunburst w/ matching head and rosewood. I think you guys make the BEST looking Sunburst EVER. I was never interested in the color until I saw it on an EBMM :). By the way, what's up with the neck??? Is it maple or mahagony, and is there finish on it???
 
Lovely looking guitar that BP. I'm sure sales would increase if you put that into production.
I have a mahogany guitar finished in the "Gibby SG cherry" finish - it's sweet.

What a great way to start the week.
 
Any chance of this guitar joining the standard line of EBMM guitars??????????????

I Wanna Buy it!!!!! I Wanna Buy it!!!!!!!! I Wanna Buy it!!!!!!!! :eek:
 
I just went and weighed my Caparison, which is the lightest guitar I've ever touched that is mahogany, and it clocked in at 7.0 lbs! 7.0 lbs for a mahogany guitar! Unheard of. Honestly, this guitar feels like a feather. And sounds like one, too.

Then I weighed my JP, which I consider to be a very light guitar, and it clocked in at 7.5 lbs, just to give you guys an idea.

If you are gonna make some 24 fret mahogany silo's, put me down for two!

P.S. Beautiful scenery there in the backgroung parking lot. I don't really get to see that down here in J-ville. Nothing but cars, cars, and more cars, with some cars thrown in every once in a while. And then every once in a while I'll see the occasional car.

The neck on that guitar was lighter than a maple neck....That is a really nice guitar.
 
It's just a one off. The neck is bursted perfected and also looks as if it's a set neck guitar. The finish is tobacco burst. I have one up my sleeve for the bass guys, and i'll try and bring it in tomorrow for some torture tuesday.
 
Damn... that is one sweet guitar.

So does the neck still get the same EBMM treatment or is it poly'd over the burst?

nice job guys!!!
 
here is another one the burst resolves to dark brown...it is a finished neck and we have no current plans to offer this but figured that you knuckleheads could use some monday eye candy.
