Reflections of the BFR JP F-1 Development

[lpcoco]

I am here since late december 2006 and what I see here is a company passionated by what they do and who is sharing that passion with peaples from nubies to veterant.

Since I saw John Petrucci's prototype on the DVD "Score", I contacted Kevin in some occasion since September 06 ' and afterward I am registered on the forum to know more about it. And since I came here, I became addicted to this forum. I come here several time a day. As soon as I have some free minutes. I saw some guitar that I never heard about and learnt a lot of thing on them. I'm not already a member of the EBMM family because I am not possess an EBMM yet but I cannot imagine that my next guitar cannot be an EBMM.

You make me live incredible moment in the last month with that BFR. And thank's for sharing all the process of the building of those model. I cannot be able to wait for new information each day.

Long live to Bp and all the team behind EBMM.

All the best.

Welcome to the next level.
I am really looking forward to reading what history writes in the future about (this) the present.
It's all part of this wonderful modern age in which we live.

Hey! I did my part by not offering any opinions or feelings.

Just you keep mashing the GAS BP and I'll hang on and enjoy the ride.

There you go again just blowing the doors off my expectations YOU GUYS FREAKING ROCK!

Can't wait to see that 5 String Sterling. I have been waiting for one of those since you announced it las year BP.

Watch out roblinda2, this might be the year your collection looks small compared to mine. Well not really but its wishful thinking.

Very nice pieces lucky Albert....I have a question when these BFR AL'S get released in summer are they going to be available in the same colors as the current BFR'S?

Thanks BP (and all the EBMM team) for all, I'm very proud to play your (mines... ) guitars

WOWWWWWWWWWW! BFR Albert is coming, YIPPEE! How good do those tops look?!?!?! So that means July they are being shown at NAMM, that is magnificent, a dream come true. Just today i told my dealer that i wasnt going to order a BFR Luke, and that i was holding out for a BFR AL, maybe later in the year if i pray my ass off. Can just sit back and save my money now!

I'm just so happy this is happening, i look forward to all the details in the coming months!!!!

I wonder sometimes if we do take for granted the amount of things that we are "let in on" around here. It just doesn't seem to happen with many if any other companies let alone guitar companies. So, perhaps we don't have much input in the actual development, but you couldn't please everyone one here anyway right? But it's the way we get to see and are told "this is what you guys can expect!"

It keeps us all dreaming and in love with our instruments. I do love other guitars. I do love my Jp6. But, I actually adore the principles and ethics that Ernie Ball/Musicman work alongside.

I almost get the feeling that if EBMM could give guitars away for free they would. Meaning, that it's the care and attention in their products that is what counts. And the artists and customers (who feel very lucky to play and use such wonderful products) are loved by the company. It just so happens that they need to make a profit to keep the dreams alive. And we're all dreamers here right? I like the fact that EBMM make some of mine come true.

Who honestley can say they don't feel like that 10 year old kid that is anxiously waiting to see if they get the trainset they asked for on christmas day when we see, play, buy or even just think about some or maybe even all of these wonderful instruments?

And while EBMM makes these guitars, and while my favey artists keep making the music I love, and as long as I can enthuse about it all to the people I love and feel like the child I once was is still alive somewhere, EBMM will have a loyal customer in me.


PEACE OUT brothers and sisters!

If it's not, then I don't want any pics!

(actually, either way I don't want pics!)

OUr problem is production not ideas...In history there hasnt been a comapny that made #1 quality across their line in real big numbers. WE are always aware of the need to SMARTLY expand but are more concious of the fact that we have to uphold our values first and foremost.

SOme would say "Stop making new stuff when you cant make the stuff you already have" They have a good point but what drives me is the feeling that we are making forward progress in the evolution of the basses and guitars that we make and that is the juice, baby!
