Anyone have any good pics of an Egyptian Smoke guitar (a JP would be great!)?

I'm considering buying one as a vendor has a 7 string in stock with the specs I want, but cannot find a local dealer here with the color. The pics on the EBMM site and on other sites all completely contradict each other! I'm so confused! Some pictures look grey, some look almost gold! :eek:

The Graphite Pearl pics I've found were just dark grey looking as well. :(

Any pics would be a HUGE help, thanks! :)

Real nice bite and great harmonics!!!! I play mostly heavier stuff and i know it must seem funny to choose a guitar with P-90 type pickups for that kinda style but they smoke!!!!!! They R E A L L Y smoke!!!!! :D

Out of curiosity, what colours do you have on order at the moment? ;)

Very nice, ernie! I can't help but think that an Egyptian Smoke would make a nice companion for a Carbon Blue Pearl. :)

I like that Lava Pearl!
Very nice (just a little too flashy for me)
Intravert. Not extravert! (did I spell that correctly?)

I have never seen the Medallion Gold or Rolls Burgandy color schemes. Will you be posting pics, ernie?

Anything for you CBP! :D

So are CBP your initials and mmjp stand for Music Man John Petrucci? What is 05, 2005?

Ernie,

You're going to have to start charging for this service! :D
You've got a better colour selection (real pics) then the EBMM website!
I'm glad you posted colour pics for me before this trend begins to annoy you. ;)

Hey Foggy,

I'll never get annoyed at fellow EBMM maniacs. We are kindred spirits who found each other thru the greatest guitars ever built. How could I ever say no to my EBMM brothers?

Awesome! I'll be looking forward to it, ernie. :D

As far as my name goes, I created it upon deciding the exact Petrucci Model that I was going to order. I had it narrowed down to about 5 cholors for my first one, and the Carbon Blue Pearl was just to beautiful to pass up. So my name is simply the intitials for Carbon Blue Pearl Music Man John Petrucci, and then 05 for the year that she will be born. It probably sounds a bit gay, but hey, I was in an inspired state. :D

Thanks for posting those links, ernie!
