Special thanks to the forum member that made this ALL happen...

Mr. HP, #6. Unplayed condition with all the bells and whistles - functional LED's, Tach, side pipes, etc. I didn't realize how GREAT this guitar would sound. Someone pass me the router because I have a few Jacksons that need the 4 humbucker treatment...

One thing I've just noticed is the sheath that covers the windings on the pickups is wrapped around all of them together. Giving it the appearance of being one pickup. Spinal Tap indeed. BP, who is credited with designing it?

Those things crack me up.

Can't say I'd ever plunk down money to own one though.


I'd love to have one of those Mr. Horsepower guitars! I just could never bring myself to spend that kind of money on one, though. :(

If anyone sees one for the price of a normal AL, let me know! ;) (I won't hold my breath)

Congrats Brett. I had the priviledge of playing DaveB's at the Open House. That is such a fun guitar to play. Of course, I tried to get DaveB to let me "borrow" it for a while.....but, for some unknown reason, he wouldn't let me.....:rolleyes:

Yes, I believe 25 were made. If I am also correct, #1 was Casey Lee Ball's and was stolen.....so, if you see #1, get in touch with EBMM because it is literally a "Hot Item".......I still have my eyes out for it. :cool:

Whilst it obviously has some "visual appeal" underneath all the flames and chrome its a f****** great guitar :D

Koogs - you come over here man and I'll let you play it again :)

If you say you want one really bad and you hang around the forum for a year or two generating an additional 2000 or so posts saying "someday" and catch him on the forum after he's had a lot to drink then maybe he'll be really generous and offer to rent it to you until you're able to get one!!!! :D :rolleyes: ;) :p
