Steve Lukather Yellow MM?

[kimonostereo]

Would R&D not usually value market preferences?
Didn't the same preferences kindle interest in the first place?
I'll shut up now, as requested.

Some companies do, but listening to the crowd doesn't necessarily make a great product that a large amount of people will buy.

Sure everyone would want a guitar from EBMM custom made just for them, with a different nut width or neck profile, or arm contour in just the right sparkly finish. Unlimited choices don't equal cost effective guitars or more sales.

BP runs a tight ship. If he felt it was feasible, and economically sound to release more options, i'm sure he would.

Big Papa didn't mean anything bad by it. It was just a tounge & Cheek comment. Really where else would a company listen and then out of right field throw it in the pipline and make a high quality artist intrument?
I like BP and he is pretty good Bass player too. The waiting though is pure torture.

this thread is getting crazy, first you want to get the exact guitar that Luke has. Now you want to change it? I wonder if all the ones making these comments will actually be purchasing one?

I dunno, It's got 8000 views though. You never know what sells unless you make it eh?

It's gonna be absolutely hilarious when BP announces that it comes in Lefty only!

personally its that color I really love and want on a luke , dont care if its exactly like his real one , but whatever BP decides is fine with me as long as its that color. and hopefully its not too expensive cause I reall would love to have one

Ha! I would flip the nut and play it upside down! I just can't stop thinking about this colour. I'm hooked !

Screaming did you ever think this thread would go as long as it has, its got a mind of its own now

I know, I think maybe Chewie should find out where all the traffic is coming from to see if the 8k clicks are legit. I don't use facebook and only follow on Twitter. So it is kind of surprising. With that though if the Colour falls through I'm going to find a can of Krylon !!

nice screaming , if thats what it takes

Lots of those clicks are from those of us checking to see if you finally spelled "Big Poppa" correctly... heh heh heh

On a serious note I'd love to see one of these in the flesh, thanks for pushing for it Screamin!

 

[ScreaminFloyd]

It's the spell checks fault And the "A" Key thats next to the "O" key.







Ha Ha made you look

 

[Chako]

Big Jazzer..We love input...really do but in this instance this guitar will be a exact recreation of the guitar Steve Lukather plays in the rosewood and true gold. I offered it and now no good deed goes unpunished as one particular forumite keeps asking for it to be the SCreaming FLoyd model...I wont name name though! Now he is asking Chewie in IT to research some things for him.. Chewie is busy.

 

[mr.b]

am i correct to say the announcement will be placed in this thread? i don't want to miss it. (and i'm not being impatient either)

Makes sense now, as I thought you were irked with the odd suggestions coming out here.
Our witterings here make it a homely place to hang.
FWIW, when we were developing a chanting mob outside your office, I said I would snap up a Luke with a Floyd, but can respect you wishing to keep an artist model just as the artist plays.

Is this the official annoucement? Last week you said next week which ends today BTW
and "Ily" is probably going crazy by now from the Tic Toc Tic Tok sound After the Rosewood True Gold Luke model is done. We can talk about the ScreaminFloyd model if you insist !

cant we just leave BP alone let him do his thing so he can make the announcement , and then we will be closer to having a tru gold Luke
