I've had this beauty for almost a week. What an amazing instrument. Beefier neck is perfect for me. My favorite color of all EBMMs that I've had. Oozes class imho. Mahogany with the custom pups is perfect tone-wise. This guitar has it all for me in mass quantities :). I'm so happy to have my very own brand new BFR Stingray. BP - if you happen to read this, THANKS for this run - it is unreal! Pics:

To quote the late Steve Irwin, "she's a beauuuuuty!"
That neck looks totally hot!
What amp(s) do you play it through?
 
Oh man... this is killing me. I want one of these so bad.

What does the wood/neck/pickup combination sound like? Growly, clean, vintage?

I have a little Vox VT20+ in my man cave that I play it through along with a Zoom G3X. I play through headphones a lot to keep the peace around here :). The great part is I get great sound using a direct setting on the Zoom - perfect amp cabinet sounds into my headphones.

Thanks! Correct. I had one of the GC AL's in that color. Loved the color then and even more now. The AL had a perloid pick guard which looked really nice with the Trans Walnut. Maybe I'll get one made for this guitar. We'll see.

Believe it or not it's all of the above! I can get nice growl, very nice clean and a nice vintage sound as well. They were going for vintage sounds with this and that's where it shines the most. But, this thing can do it all including cleans even though it doesn't have a split coil feature. I hope that helps.

One of these is probably next on my list. I'm GASSING so hard for these beauties. I used to be only an Axis guy, but now I have three other models and may get a Stingray before long! HAHA

Outstanding! Can NEVER go wrong with an EBMM no matter what it is!
