GC AL MM90 Rosewood Neck

[assMan]

Hi all,

Does anyone have experience with the (not sure what year) Guitar Center AL MM90 with Rosewood Neck/ash body? I have one on order (probably should have asked this before I ordered) and would appreciate some feedback from users.

Thanks!

Oh boy assMan, you just bought yourself a oneway ticket to paradise. The Albert Lee is such a killer guitar! The MM90's sound incredible on it. Tone of these MM90's is very versatile, nice bite to them, yet can be somewhat chimey as well. The neck, you will die for. Beautiful, feels silky smooth. You will really enjoy this guitar.

What color and when does it arrive? Congrats on a lovely score!

I've got the HH Al and the MM90 Al both all rosewood neck. I call them the twins and they're the best two guitars I own. The MM90 is a strat killer which is great because I hate strats but love the single coil tones. Congrats and post pictures!

The rosewood MM90 is my 2nd favorite guitar.

Would like to see more AL MM 90! Please show it when you get it, rosewood necks are great!

I love my AL MM90's, super guitar and just the balls.

What's the deal with the GC AL you have on deposit, is it in of the limited color runs? Like the Turquouse Blue?

Hoo boy.. before these posts I was waiting patiently (you know, only checking the UPS tracker 40x per day) for the delivery guy. Now I'm getting antsy to get this thing in my hands! The only colors I could find for the MM90/ash/r'wd config were in gold and black. These are trem only. I also don't know the production year and couldn't get a serial# from GC. Not aware of any other colors, but then again I can only go by what GC has told me. Mine is in black and, if I can believe the good folks at GC, the last one in either color left in their inventory nationwide (until the next order, that is).

I'd be interested to know if they do come in other colors, as I think that r'wd neck contrasted with the lighter, more vintage-y colors is just the bees knees... will post some pics when the train reaches the station.

In the meantime, anyone else out there playing these things?

Best,
assMan

I scored my it had been hanging around GC for 3 years, started out in Hollywood, ended up in Phoenix and I had it shipped to Natick Mass. It's a 2001, White Sparkle, but it's a maple neck, not a rosewood neck. Again, one of my favorites.

Congrats, lets see it when you get it.

If I remember correctly the GC exclusive AL MM90 with rosewood neck is available in black and gold (can't remember the specific color's name), I recall having seen a few white ones too but could be wrong...I happen to have one that was made during the BFR Rosewood neck run, it's my favourite guitar. You're in for a lot of fun!

You guys are making it real hard to be patient but I sure appreciate the responses.

Hey AJ.. what's your favorite guitar??
