Help! Music Man Luke III guitars in Beijing,China

[petrucci1]

Hi Guys,

I live in India and we dont get my MM guitars here. I bought a Steve Morse model in US last year when i visited there.
Right now, I am really wanting to buy a MM Luke III. I will be travelling to Beijing,CHina next week and was wondering which music shops to look up for MM guitars.
Would love to try a Luke III in China before asking one of my friends to pick it up for me in US.

All help will be really appreciated.

Thanks

I guess that's kinda far from Beijing, seeing as that store is located in Hong Kong. Oh well, better something than nothing. After all, Tom Lee is a large music store. I'm sure if the OP would like to visit Hong Kong, there should be plenty of choices for him/her...

thanks for your quick response guys. Tom Lee is a bit far away. I have taken down the list of all MM dealers in China and will definitely try to call them up once i am there. I was wondering whats this Beijing Guitar Center? Does Guitar Center actually have an outlet there? I might just get a MM there!

I sincerely hope you get your hands on one. I got mine Tuesday and let me tell you, it is stunning! Either color is nice but I went for the Olive Gold, SSH config. Sounds AMAZING. The passive pickups make a world of difference. Neck, smooth as silk. Volume boost on the treble control is killer. If anyone is on the fence, definitely do it.

Good luck. Keep us informed on what you find!

Hi Mtrejo,

i really do hope man. i had bought a Morse model but wasnt happy with the set up. Bought it in Guitar Center in NYC and the guys there did a really bad job. I really hope my next MM experience is better.I am definitely looking at the SSH config.i just want to ensure i get to play one before I take a plunge. And that wont happen sitting in India

Btw, I meant HSS, not SSH (Dr. Kev)

My action was terribly high when I got mine a but simple adjustment fixed that right off the bat.

Anyway, great guitar!
