Albert lee Olive gold? Anyone have any idea if its rare?

[Morseman19]

so i have found a Olive Gold albert lee with matching head stock, 3 single coil emgs and a all maple neck,board n all.

have not seen a single picture of this guitar ever,have been searching most of the day. its weird to me to have not seen another one. i don't know if this was a custom order, i just know that most of the olive gold mm (same color as the LIII) have all rose wood necks for the BFR.

need to know if i need to grab this one Asap.
plays perfect

thanks

apparently it is, it was given away at a battle of the bands as a promotional guitar.

If you like it and you can afford it, you should buy it. Not because it's rare or whatever, but because you like it.

If it's a good price get it - pretty rare guitar.

If you can get the s/n you can post it on the serial nummber sticky, - CS should be able to give you the full low down on it.

Any info on it would help my decision a lot.
They arnt emgs as well. I'm not at my computer but I'll post a pic in a bit.
GF thinks its ugly as hell. Lol. But can't judge a book by its cover. Sounds perfect.
Only thing I would do would swap the plain white guard for a perloid and 12db boost.

this guitar looks stock to me the pups looks not like EMGs but the like the stock seymour duncan. The battery there is for the silent circuit.

This color was a standard color few years ago and its now discontinued except on the LIII

Right, the color was uncommon to see and was discontinued after a year or so. Of course once it was discontinued people wanted to see it again, go figure. It is now available on (only) the LIII

It's a fantastic color. At 1K I'd grab it if I were you. My Olive Gold Silhouette is the most beautiful guitar I've ever seen in person.

It was done the same time as the Olive Gold Morse. Me thinks.
