What exactly is this Stallion I keep hearing/reading about?

[darchirnoj]

What is this guitar?
Is seems mythical or something, the way it's often referred to.

Does it exist? If not, any ideas on a release date?
What is it, exactly?

Thanks,
Jon

[darchirnoj]

ok.
So, it doesn't exist.
I got it.
Is it like a running joke on the boards or something?

Project Code Name Stallion is a prototype guitar that Music Man and JP are working on. From the hints BP has dropped its designs and features will be totally different from anything we're accustomed to right now. So it has caused quite a stir amongst us fanboys.

However due to a new generation of internet keyboard warriors and the nature of trolls to congregate en masse previous times BP has given us sneek peaks, its development has been tightly under wraps.

We do know its production name will be the Majesty!

There ya go.
Awesome, man.
Thanks.

Think of it as a development project with JP that may, or may not, see the light of day, someday.

The stallion is the first guitar that uses a pillow as the body :

(JP with the definitive prototype of the Stallion)

The duck feathers improve the sustain and the resonance and allow to play much faster.

The pickups give a nice quack on the in-between settings. Apparently.

It's a known fact that Dream Theater will do a new version of the Chicken Dance on their new album :

After the Dance of Eternity, the next step is the Chicken Dance. But of course, JP needs the stallion to play such a musical prowess.

It is a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma.
