I noticed this on the SC website, I'm in Leeds, we have two branches and I've never seen a EBMM guitar in either.

Blindlemon, is there any chance of a demo in Leeds in the future?

Dude, they're clearing out SUB1's at less than used prices right now but you'll probably need to cal up.

As a former employee (some 14 years ago) - ask for Martin Hughes in the Glasgow store, he'll see you right.

Just checked the website, great price, all out of stock at the moment - probably a good thing, I've only just finished paying for my Luke.

The 'it was a bargain' line is wearing a bit thin with Mrs O!

Is it a full EBMM demo in Glasgow or just the Subs?

If there's a sniff of the BFR's then a trip to Glasgow would be very attractive!

Thanks for the info guys, much appreciated.

The lure of seeing this wonderful pair of BFR's may just prove too powerful to resist a trip to Glasgow...

I was there very briefly (Mrs Starsky was on a shopping run).

Got there around 11am and there was a tasty collection of EBMMs on display - BFR JP6, an AL, a few Axi, a Morse and some Subs along with a Luke (not the BFR unfortunately).

The BFR JP6 looked very nice, I had a feel of the finished neck which although very different to the regular JP was silky smooth.

Nobody around at that point, I guess they were getting everything ready, but I popped back in an hour or so later and the guys were busy with prospective new customers.

I didn't hang around with there being no BFR Luke, but great to see the interest and exposure for EBMM up here.

just after 11 oclock I was in collecting one of my musicmans from JImmy Egypt and met fellow forumite DLloyd outside the front of the shop.couldn't wait though

hey Starsky was your Bongo in there yesterday?.Paul,one of the bass sales guys was walking up the stairs with a lava pearl Bongo just like yours

I'd have loved a go but was in a rush and anyway,if it was yours I doubt he'd have let me
