Reviews:

"Autumn Red Rise is a very unique finish and unde of silver."

"Autumn Red Rise is a very unique finish and unlike anything I've ever seen. It's vibrant and flashy, yet maintains classic appeal at the same time," said Byron Smith, product manager for Ernie Ball, when asked about the new colors. They can be viewed at Ernie Ball/Music Man

Question: Is it even possible to get all your EBMM guitars (including the non-sparkly ones) in one photograph??? :D

Nope, too many (50 or so), I don't have enought guitar stands and there is a big ding risk when you start bunching guitars up for a photo. I once did a pic with my Pet collection, back when it was around 20 or 25, it was very nerve-racking.

Ernie, NorM's the only one that I know that has the RARE Burnt Apple JP, your gonna have to make it worth his while if you want it that bad. Though I think I know NorM's statement back to you and I'm quoting here (at least I think I am) "When you pry ot from my cold dead hands!!!!"
