How the devil did you get that roasted Maple neck on that Solar Burst BFR? I want one. Looked at the BFR spec page and couldn't see Roasted Maple necks as an option on there!!!

Ha! Let's just say the dealer and I had to beg, borrow, and steal! It is a truly sweet combination.

The chrome hardware were also changed post-production.

I will be having some strong words with my dealer!!

Seriously though, I wish Roasted Maple was a standard option, with that Solar Burst finish it just looks stunning.

Two thumbs WAY, WAY up to ebmm for doing the roasted fretboard for you. All the begging, borrowing, and stealing were well worth it. It looks stunning with those frets dots, too.

I was just in the right place at the right time. Sometimes you are the windshield; sometimes you are the bug.

Although it would seem if there is enough demand, they could add the roasted neck to the option list and make a few more shekels in the process.

Thank you all for the positive comments.

Awesome, one of the best looking guitars I have ever seen, hell of a dealer to help create a frankenass:D

Congrats, if it had chrome pups covers would even take it more over the top.

So the neck was replaced post production?

If someone can get me this instrument, I don't ask questions. I just pay my money and say thank you. :)

Once again, a tremendous thank you to the men and women at EBMM in San Luis Obispo for making such a fine guitar. It is truly appreciated.
