Welcome to Day 3 of my annual New Year's New Guitar Days (NYNGD)!

Alright, we're rolling now! Thanks for the kind words and comments on Monday's #2021-2!

You know what? Let's keep the blue thing going!

Today's NYNGD is an Axis in the stunning Diablo Blue finish from Pete Diablo-er-DuBaldo at DuBaldo Music. This is another awesome dealer exclusive. On the Axis, Diablo Blue manifests as a gorgeous trans blue top with a great light pearl blue back, and gets rounded out with an ebony fretboard on a roasted maple neck.

On top of being another awesome EBMM, Pete and his namesake shop are great to deal with -- I mean, who else includes a Diablo Blue yo-yo with your guitar?!? Seriously, Pete is all class and it's a pleasure buying such a great guitar from a fellow Knucklehead. I'd strongly urge you to check out the Diablo Blue offering at DuBaldo Music. It's available on virtually every EBMM model. And tell Pete I sent ya!

I'll be back soon with another NYNGD: New Year's New Guitar Day! Thanks for looking everyone!

Past Days:
The new EBMM message board limits the number of characters in a post so I can't put a list of direct links in the post. Click here for an index.

(The back story in case you're new to my NYNGD: For the past couple of years I've done a fun thing that most of you I think enjoyed, and I thought I would do it again this year. Every year, I am a slacker about keeping my Guitar Gallery up to date... So, as a fun holiday thing, let's launch a guitar in the Guitar Gallery each day leading up to New Years Eve! In the past I've received PM's about my collection and whether I play all of these guitars. :) The same question came up during my NYNGD posts a few years ago and my answer was pretty detailed and well thought-out, so please check it out here!)

(Also, in case anybody gets any funny ideas -- these guitars are not at my house. They are all in my very secure and alarmed studio facility. I usually only have two guitars floating around the house...)

I like how this year is starting off - blue, blue, and more blue! Totally agree about Pete - I have bought a number of guitars from Pete. Great customer service!

Jeff -- I'm starting to wonder if anyone has ever seen you and the Blueman Group or Eifel 65 in the same room at the same time - I'm suspicious...

Pete's Diablo Blue is kick-ass and could even make a pencil look like magic. The ebony boards are divine as well (have one on a Luke!). I hope someone talks Pete into a blue StingRay RS some day (hint hint, nudge nudge 🙃).

DANG! That is one monster top! And they play soooo well. Such a great top on that one! They all had monster tops but that one is special. My second favorite Diablo blue axis top. I love how it almost looks like water.

Hey guys, sorry for the delay on NYNGD 2021-4... A little buried getting back up to speed with the day job post-holiday break. Gimme a couple days. Next three are photographed, but now the time consuming part! ;)

Hint... the next one is not 🥶 blue. (Although there are 2.5 blue guitars remaining in the 2021 haul).

Any guesses on what color and model the next one is? I GUARANTEE you can't guess. :LOL:
