AJ....a quick question here in regards to the guitar in the pic above. Is this a BFR Luke or just a standard Luke with that blue finish?

I didn't really want the EMG pickups. What I wanted was a Luke III with the HSS setup but I was hoping the finish was transparent like in the pic above.

Kindly let me know so that I can make sure I order the right axe!

Many thanks!

The guitar on the pic is the Luke with the EMG pickups, but i can't see why the Luke III HSS wouldn't have the same transparent finish, when it's the same PDN run :)

The pic shown there is a normal Luke with the blue finish. You could do a Luke 3 and it'll look similar to that finish. If you go BFR Luke it'll be a figured maple top.

Anyone have any idea when sweetwater will have these? Can I order it to build from them or will I have to wait till they get them in the shop?

Lucas - call them up and ask. Their sales engineers really know their stuff. I'll bet you can order one. I can't imagine them turning down an order :).

Any orders placed now should be done late July. Call them up and get yours on order now. They'll probably do a big order too but the sooner you order the sooner your guitar will be done!

Now there's an idea. A service that calls your disgruntled spouse and explains away your gear purchases. I like it!

I already emailed my rep. HE kinda had no idea what I was talking about. I sent him the flyer. It isnt his fault though; It is people higher than him making those calls. He will get back to me when he knows more info. They have alot of people here wanting to order through sweetwater.

Sweetwater told me they weren't ordering any. They may just be saying that so that they can get the EBMM fans to order before they make their orders. They know these will sell like hot cakes, they don't want their only order to be bought by people who already knew about them. This is purely speculation.

Long time no see guys! Lots has changed, my last EBMM purchase was a Silo Black Sugar I got from Sweat, I love that guitar. I happy to say that yesterday I sent Pete DuBaldo my deposit for a new JP6. I'm really excited about this guitar as now I have my own studio and I'm doing a lot of recording sessions and gigs. It will fit nicely along my JP7 and the Silo!

Yeah haha, it was in absolutely mint condition.

Seriously I can't wait to see my JP6 with the roasted maple neck and fingerboard! The wait is killing me and we are a long way to go haha

Just heard back from my SW rep. Seems like they are getting them, but it will be WITHOUT the maple fret board and a piezo. Now I dunno what to do.

simple... call up Pete Dubaldo at Dubaldo's music and also on this forum who knows the PDN options inside and out.

Then place your order for exactly what you want.

I'm still waiting on my callback from sweetwater...Pete got my business
