Awesome. I love that it's got the binding, yet also has the arm contour/isn't a slab top. I'm personally *VERY* happy to see that.

Edit: The color is gorgeous. And check out that bevelling on the headstock and lower horn. Very nice touch.

Thanks for the update!

We are called Fanbois in other forums because many do not understand our overzealous admiration and protectiveness for our MusicMan basses and our quasi fanatical loyalty to the brand and the people behind them. But if other folks can see this thread and get to know the forum in general better, they will understand why we have this pack like behavior and why we defend EBMM tooth and nail everywhere.

Setting aside for now the innovation aspect, this blow by blow account of product development doesn't happen among other US makers. On one hand, no one shares the evolution of a new product because there is NO innovation. BP and co in their wisdom don't just regurgitate different versions of the Stingray or the Sterling even though it might be financially safer. OTOH, some makers are too far detached from their user base that this sort of interaction is alien to them. Again, BP and co understand the importance (and risks) of having a forum for the fans to discuss products.

Revisiting innovation, once again, EBMM justifies our loyalty with these new, exciting developments and our privileged, outside looking in view of the process. This is the second new, ground up model from EBMM in this decade. No other maker comes close. Not Ffender, Ric nor Lakland.

Although, I hope that one day BP will allow us to beta test these prior to release ;)

I am done pontificating.
