this one is a bit sparkled... do you think it's legit?? eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices I want to get it but idk if its real cereal number:E24364
The color was called Autumn Redburst. Discontinued in 2001-2002 time frame. Not sure if that picture on the headstock will come off or not. Right now, it's priced @ $749 which is a good price. If your bidding good luck.

Can I get some opinions up in here???I'm reading a lot lately about guitarists who believe thier basses or guitars sound and play better when the nitrocellulose coating breaks down and comes off. General opinion is that the wood dries out and the tone improves quite drastically (Rory Gallagher was the most well known backer of this theory).
Even though EBs are not nitro coated would it A)make any difference to have one with no exterior coating at all and nice dry wood? Or B)Its simply a case of age being the main ingreident to improving tone etc? or C)The guitars were rubbish anyway, they just sound better without the pooh all over the wood? Any thoughts?

Color help please
I traded for this 2004 HSP Bongo not too long ago. And the seller listed it as Burgandy Cabernet. But I can't seem to find that color listed. And I can't really tell from the other photos on here what color it really is.
Anyone sure about it? This is the truest pic of the color I can find.
Thanks guys.

That one looks like Candy Red to me. I've never heard of Burgandy Cabernet. Seems to be a they're mixing Rolls Burgandy & Cabernet Pearl in their naming.
This thread http://forums.ernieball.com/music-man-guitars/42557-cabernet-pearl.html has pictures of both Rolls Burgandy and Cabernet Pearl in it.

I don't believe it is. Unless a dealer has one new, your best bet is the used market. I know Bass Central has a 4 string version still in stock but I have never seen a 6 string in Egyptian Smoke.
Gorgeous!
If that's the original color you can go to the http://forums.ernieball.com/music-man-basses/1254-music-man-serial-number-database-428.html and using the serial number they can tell you what color it is.
