Monday Madness From Bp

[Big Poppa]

Neck looks great like that!

Is that in SLO or desert? The clouds, mountains and sky are perfect.

Thats outside my office in the desert...the same desert they were baggin on earier

 

[jaxadam]

I want more pictures of the desert

 

[OrangeChannel]

Wow Beep! That's sick. I'll have to start calling and harrassing you guys if I end up with the band I've been trying to get into...

 

[Colin]

NorM must have passed out before hitting the keyboard

 

[PugNinjas]

Man, that is one tasty looking morsel

 

[Jim Warnstedt]

Hey BP, Nice axe! It's the BP Custom Shop Limited Edition!

 

[EightmanVT]

That is sharp!! I can't even find one to buy - and I look every single day!!...and there they go just giving you one....

 

[PeteDuBaldo]

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.

Well I just 911'ed Norm and he had this to say:

You see this? It's nice, and you can't have one!

He also said something about going to buy a Strat to play in Guitarmageddon tomorrow

 

[MCBTunes]

wow, that guitar is beautiful

 

[Colin]

NorM?

 

[Luc]

the torture!

I WANT ONE!

oh wait, i can't afford one

 

[GWDavis28]

Hat's off to Scott and Dudley, that is a great looking guitar!!

I use to have an old Ib@nez that was that color, nice.

Thanx for the pictures.

[brentrocks]

that is pretty sweet...i have always liked tobaco burst!

 

[mico]

VEEERY beutiful! Wonder how it sounds compared to the regular Silo.

BTW: What happens to the one-off's and the prototypes? Do they keep them at SLO, or do they sometimes get sold?

 

[koogie2k]

Big Poppa....that is one sweet looking axe! Must be nice coming to work and seeing such a magnificent guitar waiting for your personal inspection......

You guys just keeping getting better and better.....as if you needed to do that in the first place.....simply AWESOME!

 

[Big Poppa]

Most of them go to employees or artists or the archives, some to Ebay for the CLB.

We are still crazy about what we do and so we keep trying different things. This guitar sounds much better than the mahog w maple top that Kbaim and Norm played at the Biff Babys gig, The anniv sounds the best...it is really cool as it is the only guitar I know of that is made up of 3 tonewoods...alder mahog and maple.

 

[doubleR]

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.

Notice the key word "current."

SO there's always hope for you guys.....

 

[TwAn]

'though it's already Tuesday, that's still one great looking guitar!! Keep up the good work!

(and keep throwing these beauties on E-bay for the CLB-foundation... I would love to be able to say I actually bought a guitar for a good cause!)

 

[NorM]

<NorM raises hand to ask a question. Then he just puts it back down and shuts up.> I guess you qualify as an employee.

Is it tobias that does like six woods? Wait that's a bass not a guitar.

I did get to play them and that was a huge thrill. I didn't plug any of them in though. I know Dargin really wanted the mahogany back wood for the anniv silo. I think the absolute tone strip is a beautiful compromise. I like the burst on the back of the neck and the smoothed out way it looks like a neck through. That one is really pretty.

Hey Dargin, its Tuesday, where is that bass porn you were talking about?
