Date manufactured

Nice to see some history on the EG series. That's a sharp light blue HS guitar.

I'll add my EG photo to the mix ...

I like that colour

It's strange that every EG owner starts with I owned one and sold it, i wish I didn't/ want to buy another

Mine will never leave me because it’s blue.

It is funny you say that. I got mine last year, and every time I play it I wonder why I didn't get one before.

cheer up, it’s not impossible to move a blue one, and you could always do a fiesta red overspray.

Sergio made me do it!

Mines a Baby Blue, the rarest colour on early Prs’s, purely coz no body wanted to be seen playing one with such a girly colour.

But blue guitars sound better.

Any advice on the EG-4 electronics? I asked someone at the factory once about 12 years after I bought it, and he couldn't comment without actually looking at the wiring. He said there were considerable variations on them, a lot of experimentation at the time, so it's not really documented. Mine had one volume and two global tones! They might be voiced at different frequencies, but to my ears it's really hard to tell. Perhaps it's a separate bass and treble control and I've been using it wrong for 30 years as 2 conventional tone controls!

I'll drop this right here for your enjoyment. EG3 Prototype from 1991. Check out the neck joint. Had Paul sign this last month when he was at CME.

Sorry to necrobump a thread but that EGII prototype has one of the coolest neck joints I've ever seen.

Hadn't heard of the EG series previously but they look like awesome guitars. And someone's REALLY happy today because of this (didn't last more than an hour or two):
