Firefly LPs Coming Soon

[MikeR]

Supposedly available in October on Amazon. Will cost slightly more than the previous 335 and Thinline models, supposedly due to upgraded parts, pickups and the flame tops. Probably around $160. here's the first run of colors. There will be more in the future.

I was one of the members that got one when they first showed up here. Couldn’t have been happier with it. Somebody is selling them on eBay for $225 plus $63 shipping. Glad I got mine $139 with free shipping.

That purple/blue is pretty ugly. But look who's talking.

I actually kinda like the purple/blue

But then -- what do I know

Peace

Surprisingly the green/yellow burst is the one that appeals to me .
I was strong on not getting their 335 so I think I am safe from the LP temptation? (Still gasing for another 335, the Epiphone I have has a few issues at the moment).

I'd like the purple, OR the Blue - but not together. Looks like they couldn't decide!

No pink ones dang it!

How do they play and compare to an Epi. LP?

No way to know as this will be the first release. Here's an evaluation of the prototype by the Facebook group admin, who tests all the new stuff:

hahahahha, and that's the one I actually liked

 

[sdbrit68]

for that price, for something useable, why not, you can always upgrade the electronics

Yeah, me too. That and the one immediately below it. I think it's commonly referred to as honeyburst.
But what do I know, I'm colorblind.
Maybe I'll have to build a pinkburst...

Looks more like a Cherry burst to me!

Thanks for the video, very informative.

Have they talked about the weight? I have an Agile 3010 and it’s a good approximation of an LP but it is really heavy.

Yes, the guy that did the video above said his was 9 lbs, 3 oz. A little more than a weight-relieved Gibson LP.

 

[ervjohns]

Thanks Mike, not sure if it’s that much lighter than what I have now,

 

[steve o]

Oh boy. I thought that the purple/blue was great due to its uniqueness. Haven’t seen one like that before

 

[sdbrit68]

so whats the deal with these things showing up only at certain times, then you cant get them ?

 

[Jalapeno]

I like the colors of the purple and blue one but I think they did a dis-service to it by not using the painting pattern of the two above it. They goofed the transition in my opinion. Had they brought the blue up to the neck pickup, like the green and yellow one, I'd like it better.
