Guys,
it's not a secret that I have a soft spot for the AL which is IMHO the greatest singlecoil equipped guitar ever built. Having said that, I was a bit gunshy at first to get one of those rosewood necked HH Alberts...until now. Timing was right, the opportunity was there so I had to jump on this one...and there's not a single thing I don't love about it!
Mint green HH Albert Lee with vintage white pickguard, every bit as much a true AL as the SSS and MM90 versions. In fact I'm (pleasantly!) surprised with how much it retains the AL vibe and sound while taking it to another dimension with a lot more hp, really an awesome addition to the lineup that deserves every word of praise. Pics can't really capture how creamy and great it looks in natural light but I tried my best before the burning midday heat...
If you took a look at the thread's title you may have already guessed that there must be one more to come...
I was lucky enough to snag an orig. '93 pinkburst Albert Lee in quite decent condition given it's age. This one is the lightest guitar I ever held in my hands, even lighter than the Gold Roller. The setup was screwed and it needed/still needs some TLC to buff out a few scratches but once I set it up it played like a dream.
