I have a BFR JP6. Ok, well firstly...i think my top/finish looks godly in person! Any lighter-darker and it would have been ruined. But, i think the ruby burst is PERFECT!

The tone is amazing, perfect for leads...really creamy and organic. Piezo is also brilliant! My only problem is the d-sonic is just a bit too muddy for my likeing. When i use the BFR i have to adjust my amps EQ accordingly.

But, besides me not liking the bridge pickup...i LOVE the guitar!

I didnt spend $4000 on the guitar, but can you honestly put a price on the creativeness that a good guitar will inspire.
