Pearl Purple?

[MN246]

Does anyone know why this color was discontinued. Also, is there any chance it could possibly come back. This would be my first choice for a new JP, but it's looking like it will have to be sapphire black instead.

Best guess -the color was discontinued due to lackluster sales. Typically when a color is retired, it doesn't come out of retirement. We lucked out when Blue Dawn returned as an LE instrument.

both the pearl purple an blue dawn are better than most the colors that are currently avalible, just my opinion

But they've got some new stuff up their sleeves. I cannot wait to see the new offerings.

Is that Bongo in the new blue that you speak of? If so, do you have any information on a release date, because my new JP may just have to wait for that color. That is absolutely beautiful.

I believe it'll be available in 2008.
and that's the new pickguard too.

That blue is sweet

Desert Gold is to Lava Pearl what the new blue is to Blue Pearl.

IMO.

The new blue is indeed loverly. I wasn't so taken with the pickguard (which will also be an option for 08, IIRC).

Let's not forget the silver!


Incidentally, my wife wants me to own a purple bass, which would obligate me to purchase one should a purple EBMM become available.

Ben - has she picked out your purple shirt to go with it!?

 

[Karl Hungus]

Purple would be a cool colour to have a JP in, but man I'd love a Emerald Green JP. That would be the tops.

If I ever get endorsed by EBMM, the Karl Hungus signiature model will come in a very nice Pearl Emerald Greenburst.

I have no issues with that.
