VSA,

Thanks, man. The blue JP BFR is actually for sale right now. The guitar is awesome, but I think that I am the only player on the planet that doesn't like the position of the pickup toggle switch. I hold a pick more like George Lynch than John Petrucci. My fingers keep hitting the switch and changing the pickup in the middle of playing. I gave it 2 weeks, but I can't change my picking habits after 25 years of playing.

Its a 2009 JP6 Ball Family Reserve. I bought it from a collector in Calfornia who never played it. I played it at home for 2 weeks and just couldn't adapt to it. Selling it on eBay now for $2149.
