It's got the old logo as well and not the new bear logo.

My guess is that by "prototype", they mean "modded".....

Well, the write up says they are Artist Relations guitars, so they may have non-standard offerings, which is why there are EMGs. We'll have to wait and see what EBMM says. They have some other NICE ones.

And, I just realized they are located 10 minutes from where I live. With a blue dawn St Vincent. Crap.

Bad for you man. Yah I find it funny though that EBMM would let an AL out the door without a Albert Lee silkscreened logo. I looked at the other ones as well, but they are all standard offerings.

Nice St Vincent, kind of plain neck for some, I like it, I don't mind plain myself.
