NGD - Saber HT - Joined the club

[Warmart]

Holy muther of awesome perfection! EBMM and y'all forum peeps need to advertise better! Get the word out!! I just traded an expensive 3-year old PRS Paul's WL 10 straight-up for a new EBMM Saber HT in Snowy White. This particular PRS just didn't fit me and was hanging and rarely played, so it's a 110% win-win in my mind.

OMG, I loved it at first sight, but once I got it home, tweaked the truss wheel (what a godsend btw) and was able to crank it - I was screaming out so many "HELL YEAH's!!!" and "New #1!!'s" that my neighbors were threatening to call the police!

I have a great selection of guitars, a bunch of PRS cores, ESP, Ibanez, etc... but this Sabre just felt like home immediately. I'm blown away and wished I'd had found out sooner. This was the 1st time I actually played one - so it's all on me?! Absolute perfect construction and just beautiful all around. Great trem, tuners, pickups and the boost is VERY handy!

Was a close battle between the Sabre and a couple of Majesties - which will be next when I secure funding. I'd post some pics but with this particular model, they all look like this so no need.

Very happy to have joined the EBMM family, mega impressed and kicking myself a lot for taking so long!

Congrats! Sabre is really great. And with jumbo frets would have been absolutely perfect.

Wow. That's gorgeous! Congrats!

Congrats! That finish is really pretty. The binding around the edges of the body looks cool but do they actually put a flame maple top on there just to paint over it? If so, that aspect kinda triggers my OCD or whatever. haha.

Yeah, the boost is super useful. I love the boost function on my Valentines and really miss that when I pick up a different guitar. Welcome to the club.

Another thing I've noticed is how loud it is dry! Louder than any of my other solid body guitars and close to my two semi's! Another positive of the clearly excellent construction of this Sabre! It's great to grab off the wall for a couple minutes as a break from work. Cheers to EBMM!

So it would seem! But the finish is so cool I don't mind. My guess is the overall flame pattern of the tops they choose are on the lower-end, though.

Wow that is an unreal color and finish! Other photos I’ve seen don’t do it justice. Congrats!
