Last I heard, the prototypes were unfinished and nowhere near production. Looks like they must be pretty close now, I think they're being officially unveiled at NAMM '08 but I could be wrong.

Still got too many strings though

Myung has had it for a couple of months I think. EB made it for him but there is no endorsing or contract from either side. It will go into production next year I reckon...

There is a very long thread about it here, but tells you everything:

That thread's a bit old - try [url="http://www.ernieball.com/forums/music-man-basses/25761-welcome-family-john-myung.html"]this one[/url]. JM has officially taken a (toilet) seat on the EBMM roster.
