Tiger Eye Majesty

[expez]

Will there be two versions of these?

The Blog post from NAMM speaks of a limited run Majesty in Tiger Eye.

But then the Majesty 2019 reveal makes it seem like the Tiger Eye will appear as a regular production run, and not have limited availability at all.

The first blog post also says April/May for US/International release. I just contacted two local shops (Norway) to hear if they could order this in for me. They told me November and "Late 2019" and the prices they quoted me differed by 20%! They presumably both buy from the same distributor, so this is super confusing.

Were they perhaps talking about a BFR model and a production run later this year?

The Tiger Eye is a BFR Limited Run Majesty of 300 pieces (6 and 7 string combined). It is not a regular circulation model. European price will be something like 6000+ euros.

The reveal video simply advertises the model.

Hope that helps!! =)

USA price is $5000, so it's quite alright. The European dealers won't be making a huge profit. In any case, it is what it is. You wanna make an omelette, you gotta break some eggs.

Then it's just my best luck that the Majesty isn't my cup of tea

But I sure wish the happy buyers to enjoy it!

Not too loud. It's a blasphemy here.

Your taste is your taste my friend, nobody has any say on that!!

For what it's worth, I don't like any EBMM model other than the JP line (excluding the JP6 and the JP BFR) =D

It's mostly due to specs that its price climbs all the way up there. All of the other Majesty BFRs are way more limited (100 pieces instead of 300) but range at 3.8K at the most.

I'm sure they will be happy with it, I'm just concerned it will be restricted to the collector's market and not really in the player's den. Which is ok for what it is. . . I"ll just 'slum' it with my Artisan - lol.

Yes, the full-body maple top combined with the flamed maple down the middle of the neck and the flamed headstock plate (on both front and back), along with a fully-buffed finish add plenty of labor hours in addition to the cost of the raw materials.
