I've got a black one and I'm in love with it. I think the problem is that guitar players...as a general rule...are dumb.

No, but really, it's not a cheap guitar and if we're not exactly dumb, we're not exactly rich...at least most of us. Cheap? Would that be more accurate? Many guitar players can only afford one $2k guitar. So why would they take a chance on a guitar that they've never touched or seen anyone play?

Take my word for it, it's a sweet sounding axe, full of mojo. Feels very different from any other EBMM offering.

So my tuppence worth here...

The Armada is the secret weapon, - It''s a bit like the Valentine without the artist - when I played a Valentine it was amazing, but I didn't think it would be and that's the bit that blew me away.

When I got my Armada I bought it purely on looks, I'd watched the videos, watched Blues Saraceno play it, watch the pics posted here, but never touched one.

When the box opened in my living room it was like 3000 times better than I every hoped for, it's hard to describe, but it looks better in the flesh.

Tonally it's such a dynamic guitar, I cannot understand why these aren't a best seller, the "pizza" on the top I hear from others is a think that people either love or hate, but I love it, mine looks like a 50's Caddy, and the one that EBMM built for Rob Chapman with the all plain top does look nice - I think it works well with and without.

Anyway - enough of my rambling.... If you haven't tried one do it now !! sounds like time is running out to get them!!!!

Traded my quilt top Armada a few months ago... I’m dumb... it was a fantastic guitar and I wish I had it back. I thought it was beautiful... I never had anything but compliments on it... just dumb...

we need more EBMM's in more stores.

I looked recently for stores that carried EBMM & SBMM. Two stores somewhat near me supposedly sold them, but when I went to those stores, they said they no longer sold them. I didn't push for their reasons. It's a shame.
