It looks a little different than the one you posted pictures of a few weeks ago. This one has the binding. I guess they must be getting close to production. Oh yeah!!!! :D

Wait until NorM sees this...

I agree.. the body got rounded at the binding. I think it looks much better this way. NorM's head will surely explode when he sees it!

Also, Musician's Friend has updated their 'availabilty' to July 1st for this baby. Word up!

Is it the stage lighting, or is that a maple fingerboard in the 2nd photo? (The one with the violinist)

Looks like lighting based on the variance in the color tone of the fretboard and the differential between the fretboard and the underneath portion of the neck.

If you check in this picture, it looks like the 3 way toggle is no longer there too. That would mean all pickup selections would be made off a 5 way switch.

The three way toggle you are refering to is actually a two way. There is a space for it but it's gone. AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRG! that was my favorite switch.

Gotta Love colored stage lights. The guitars are Natural in the middle fading to ever darker Purple.

Jon...you're a funny dude.

The pics look awesome. I am holding onto my EBMM $$$ though until I get a review. NorM will be the decided factor most likely, but, from the looks of it, AWESOME! :cool:

Ooooh... Aaaahhhh.


Well... I would think that a rocket scientist could really have his head explode in an exemplary manner. Well done, NorM! I'll get the squeegee. :D

Was it an O-ring?
