In case you're interested in a Bernie and where hoping for some new colours (and you missed the thread in the dealer section) here's some limited edition new colours including:

Sapphire (the holy fricking grail just when I'm at my most broke! :( )
Gold metallic
Black Cherry

And...

Spalted!

Check out wildwiremusic.co.uk

They've also got the sunburst and black one. They're also doing some limited colour ZM's

Sweet!
 
Goldtop Bernie anyone?

Hoping Wildwire puts some pics of the sapphire Bernie up. Looking at other sapphire SE's they seem to look either more royal blue or teal. Still unlikely I'll have the cash before they sell out but if it looks more royal blue anyway then I'd skip it anyway. Emerald green would have been a cool colour too.
 
According to sound Affects there's just 12 of these Goldtops in the UK. I presume that's going to be the same for the other colours but there's quite a few places selling the spalted ones. Get them while you can!

Wonder if you guys in the US will get some limited edition ones?
 
Look... I'm a staunch believer that more gold always equals better but, what aren't these just gold tops? It would be so much more Bangin'!

Oh Yeah, fer sure! There are a few SE's that I'm just biding my time on until they're mine, and this, or more likely a Soapbar 245 in gold is among them, but I feel as though the Korean SE factory is presently on the "razor's edge" of their mass-produced abilities.

Some of the stuff is so good that I think with a little push they could flat-out own under $1000 market. A GT Bernie with a black, cherry, or natural back could stop Epiphone sales... add a Bigsby to the Soapbar 245 like they did for that LTD semi-hollow run and they'd have a guitar that could sway the most jaded cork-sniffer on value.

I truly believe PRS and World Music are holding back a bit on purpose.
 
Holy F*ck that man can play. Thank you, you made my day there.
 
I didn't know anything about Bernie Marsden, but now, thanks to that video, I am surfing youtube for more. That guy has a style that I really love. Thank you!
 
Some more vids that really show off how good the Bernie (And Bernie) is...




First vid I remember seeing on the Bernie. Superb tone and playing by Bernie M!


Bernie just nails it in this vid alongside Joe Bonamassa:


Why aren't these embedding? Edit: sorted cheers Corey!

Mike, you need to remove the "s" from the URL, and make sure you use the insert video link too.
Also remove the m for mobile, and and also add in www where the m was.

Wildwire Music has uploaded some pics to their Facebook page. Sapphire blue Bernie and ZM as well as the black cherry Bernie which looks sweet. The Sapphire looks nice but....

Was not expecting the black pups, surrounds and knobs... I'd possibly swap them out and put covers on the pups. What do you guys think of the black on blue? Always thought it looks good on red coloured guitars or white for the contrast. I'd possibly go with white parts rather than cream.
