Albert Lee Question !

[tommydude]

I am not familiar with this line, so please excuse me.

Was this comination ever made:

Color = Vintage White
Neck = Roasted Birdseye Maple
Pickups = Single/Single/Single

I really thought this would look cool, with a White Pearloid Pickgaurd.

Any thoughts?

Is this a Special Order?

I would buy that in a heartbeat- that's my wishlist guitar right now.

But I don't believe roasted necks were ever offered on the AL, other than the LE package with the Black Sugar finish (and probably a handful of one-offs).

Oh yeah.

 

[jzeijen]

Oh my...

Put a trem on it and send it over here. Love the roasted necks!

 

[tommydude]

Browndog!!! You are the BEST!!

Actually seeing the mock-up, is simply amazing!! Man, I really want one now!!!
Very Classy.

I would sell my Buddy Guy St@t immediately.

Pearloid Dot inlays..........oh yeah.

Haven't seen too many roasted necks plus the fretboard other than maybe an axis so this would be very exciting to see. On an AL…pshhh…total win!

Now the question is, old school finished or new school unfinished. I'm loving the unfinished.

Love the look.....REALLY love the look. Mtrejo my vote would be old school finish!

So, for the Roasted Necks, was that only a short-run option?

Not offered for Albert Lee models?

 

[beej]

That's right, so far there have just been limited runs, except for the LIII where it's now stock. Who knows what'll happen in the future.

 

[meanMRmustard]

My dear lord I think thats my favorite mock up yet!

 

[beej]

My #1 is currently my aged white AL SSS with a worn-in neck ... a roated neck would put it over the top.

 

[browndog]

Build it and I would buy one.
