Do a Google search for Carbon Fiber guitars. I don't want to add other manufacturer names out of respect for BP on his forum, but you can find some info fairly easily. I've played a number of them and the acoustics in particular have a very wide tonal range and a lot of power and projection. It's also essentially impervious to humidity and other environmental changes, so very good for touring.

I've been rotating the photo and everything else. I must need a wider shot of it. ;)

I've drawn a picture of what I believe the neck heel looks like. The pic BP provided is the back of the guitar. You have to look closely, because when I first saw the photo it looks like it's the side of the guitar body, however, BP did a good job on lighting and cropping, essentially just dangling a carrot in front of a dirt mule (drooling)..

Here's the drawing. Obviously, I don't know what the rest of the body looks like, just illustrating the neck heel BP confirmed earlier in this thread.

Thats funny, I was doing the same thing last night to see if I traced the pic and followed the line of the horn (also adding the fact that one pic showed the cutaway very near the 23rd, 24th fret) and my pic looks like yours....lol

SGish type horns, maybe?

I really hadn't put much thought into the horns, just wanted to illustrate the neck heel. The horns I have in the post are just there to put it all into perspective. Would love to see what anyone else may have done to truly speculate. See what you are doing to us Sterling!!!! :eek:

I did the pic to really try to guess the horns as this is the biggest secret to me (IE body shape).....I would be happy with a shadow box sillhouette of the guitar just to see the shape....lol

Everything else is great but the shape to me is the cats meoww......damn not the cat again:(

A question for you Big Poppa. (maybe it has already asked....)

During the development of the first JP, there was some video footage. It was very interesting to see the process.
Will we be enough lucky to see the same kind for the development of the Majesty? :eek:

I hope they have a promo video for the Majesty kinda like how they did one for the JPX where JP just sits and talks about what it took to development the guitar and why it is the way it is. The only thing I felt the promo video lacked was him actually plugging in and playing it so we could hear the differences between the other guitars. It'd be awesome for them to do a video of him playing every guitar from the JP6 to the Majesty just to get a tonal comparison from guitar to guitar! I could die a happy man after that.

+1 if you'd like the same thing!

Guys..we are working...its really hard to afford someone to be filming at all times....think of it as a concert where people actually arent holding a phone...I know it would be great to show but its hard to budget for constant video

I know my Dargie and JP6 are completely different sounding guitars! Similar feeling, ebony certainly has a different to rosewood. I'm sure all the different models sound completely unique to one another for someone who is playing them daily.

Be sure that we understand what you said. It's just that, I'm sure, the development of the Majesty has certainly been very intense, powerfull, exciting, and to us, little guitar players and EBMM fans, having the felling to be a part of this journey would be so amazing.

Note for the next guitar developement : Hiring me for video footage, even free!
(just prepare a little bed in the factory, I have simple needs)

I'll happily do a well produced comparison video to demonstrate the different models and throw it up on our business youtube page as well as my personal one. If you guys have any ideas you'd like to suggest to include in that video just let me know! PM me here or email at [email protected]
