HamerHokie Posted September 18, 2006 Posted September 18, 2006 I'm jonesin to try one of these out but it has to be a verrrrrry specific one.For an Elite I want a soundchamber, although this is probably not likely. It's a tradeoff for me - I like 24.75" scales and soundchambers, but neither have both, stock anyway.For either I want either indigo or trans black. Flametop or quilt, but the flame must be flamey and the quilt must be quiltly. If you know what I mean.Used. Used. Not new, used. Not interested in making a special order right now. I'm watching a trans black Elite on Ebay, might pull the trigger. I see a lot of trans black and indigo Elites, relatively speaking, on Ebay for some reason. Never seen a trans black Superpro. The only indigo Superpro I recall seeing is Elduave's.I'm also looking for your standard red Monaco III. I've seen a few for sale here but only in natural or jazzburst, two finishes I don't really like much. But if I find the black/blue Elite or Superpro I'll prolly hold off on the III for a while.
DavidE Posted September 18, 2006 Posted September 18, 2006 My Monaco Elite is chambered and in BCR burst (but there's no burst) and it's not for sale. Killer axe. Gigged it Saturday.
Beergoblin Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 There seems to have been a LOT of trans blacks floating around (as you already mentioned), pretty soon there will be a drought Here's mine for your viewing pleasure..........and to further fuel the gas.
BCR Greg Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 There are 6 BCR Burst Elites out there, the first ever chambered Elites.
stobro Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 Here's a shot of my Indigo Elite. Definitely not chambered. It has the familiar LP heft. Also not for sale- this is more fuel for the GAS.
silentman Posted September 19, 2006 Posted September 19, 2006 There have not been many (if any at all) in the color/combo you want. You may have to pony up an order. Most elites don't have a chamber.
HamerHokie Posted October 6, 2006 Author Posted October 6, 2006 Since chambered Elites are few and far between and there doesn't seem to be any black Superpros, I decided to settle for this one: I think I'll swap the pickup rings for black and the bridge pup for something else.
santellavision Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I was Jones'n for Gregs Trans Black Robin. I would've grabbed it but this Redwood came available and I couldn't resist.
atquinn Posted October 6, 2006 Posted October 6, 2006 I think I'll swap the pickup rings for black...
Beergoblin Posted October 7, 2006 Posted October 7, 2006 I think I'll swap the pickup rings for black... Nice, I'm sure you'll dig it. I just stumbled upon this beauty.....transblack always makes me weak in the knees.
HamerHokie Posted October 7, 2006 Author Posted October 7, 2006 I think I'll swap the pickup rings for black... Hey, this isn't YOUR guitar! I might not, we'll see.
