That would be pretty cool honestly. Only time will tell. The purple EVH caused me to take notice of EBMM, wanted one badly.

I had the Music Man ad with Eddie (I endorsed the last guitar I played. I designed this one. Big difference.) ripped from a guitar mag on my wall when I was in high school. Always wanted to play one but growing up in KY, no one nearby had them at the time. :(

Yeah, so it seems. Not much news at all at NAMM, and no word on the website of the new colors on some models. COVID is certainly a major disruption.

Pete Dubaldo mentioned that they are coming at some point, but I'm sure this year is the exception to the norm that's for sure. Chances are they'll drop tid bits here and there. Watch social media (FailBook and IG) things seem to show up there before here these days.

I fail to see how it's a good idea to discontinue pretty much every color on many lines without announcing the new ones. If the dealers don't have some in stock, what do they tell the potential customers? Unless they or EBMM have a plan for that (or the dealers can already order from the upcoming line up), I would guess that the sales have been pretty screwed for at least 2 weeks. My initial guess was that EBMM wanted to do a staggered rollout with new announcements every week. It could have been a good way to keep the buzz going and pierce through the other manufacturer's releases. It could still be the case, but I think there is a missed opportunity to capitalize on the anticipation.

Anyway, I excited to see the JP line since it will be their 20th anniversary. I hope the Majesty 8 strings will be released this year as well. I heard that they made a multiscale prototype, I'd love to see that!

I think it's mostly because COVID restrictions and such have their production cut for awhile. I guess they didn't want people to think they could still get colors that weren't going to be made anymore.

I really am curious to see the new colors, too...but I guess it'll happen when it happens. Some of the guys here may know more, though.

Does that make ignorance a virtue? Lol

Hahahaha!! Well, I guess ignorance can be a blessing, but I am aching to see what's in store. Patience however is definitely a virtue. However, I'm not that much of a virtuous man, so I'm putting my money on being blessed =D

Was going to order a Majesty from a MM dealer that i use. I asked if they had anything new coming, He contacted his rep. at MM and was told there are new Majesty's coming in the next couple months if i wanted to sit tight and wait for the new ones? No word on colors or features but new ones are coming for certain!
