Idk what you're thinking but you're picking pretty darn well right there you sound good and the guitar looks awesome...But the kids are just adorable good stuff brother.. Aloha

Very smooth playing, great tone. Yes, the AL MM90 is just so versatile.
Ha, looks like fun for everyone!

Thank you RJ/mtrejo.....my kids are always in and out whenever I play. Wasn't long after that they started tossing pillows at their dad. Actually that would have been a more entertaining video come to think about it...LOL!

Great sounding guitar! Your playing is killer, despite the hecklers

 

[ozzyrules]

Sounds great, killer picking. My kids are the biggest inhibitor of my music advancement. I get the same treatment every time I try to practice.

 

[Spudmurphy]

I never fail to enjoy your playing.

Glad you decided to keep it.

Thanks Spud.....I'm still thinking about the roasted but this one sounds and plays really well!

Thanks I really appreciate it......BUT


I took the guitar back and got a roasted Black Sugar AL SSS instead. It was a hard decision because the MM90 played and felt so good. It is always difficult to buy a guitar without playing it first, but in this case I made the right choice. I originally bought the rosewood AL at GC in Pensacola and had the chance to try it out first. I ordered the Roasted from Music123 Wednesday. I was really struggling with returning the MM90 but the Roasted kept calling my name I guess. It arrived yesterday and almost immediately I knew I made the right choice.

I absolutely love the shape of EBMM necks but I am one of the few apparently that prefer a gloss finish. So when I first saw the roasted "Black Sugar" models awhile back I wished I could own one. Fast forward to a couple of weeks ago when I went into GC. I played a rosewood AL and really liked it.....so I bought it. Shortly after however I saw the "roasted" AL at Music123. Someone had apparently returned it and was priced a few hundred less than the rosewood model I had just bought. I took the chance and returned the MM90 and ordered the roasted.

The guitar is perfect. The neck is like nothing I've owned before. I really like the slick feel of the ebony fingerboard, and the guitar looks as if no one ever played it. I will certainly miss the rosewood MM90 no doubt......but the roasted has something a little magical going on. Being a hard tail it is lighter than the rosewood trem so the overall feel is slightly more comfortable for me. Tone wise they both are stellar and certainly a toss up. Wish I could keep them both, but since I cannot, I am completely satisfied with the "Black Sugar"!

Pics to follow!

Thanks for posting this. Love your playing! I need to practice more.

How bout a vid of the new one

 

[musikarero]

Will try to get a video of the roasted AL soon! Thanks again for watching!

Hey, great video! I hadn't realized that it was your channel I had been watching of you playing your older AL's. If you don't mind or if you have the time I'd love to hear the MM90 Rosewood with a little "dirt", it's hard to find any sound clips of this guitar with overdrive or distortion but I would love to hear how it breaks up. Thanks, keep up the great playing!

I returned the Rosewood AL and will have to avoid the local shop until it sells for fear I'll buy it back and find myself in marriage counseling. I now have a "Black Sugar" AL model. My setup has changed too since those earlier videos you mentioned. I don't have a dirt pedal other than a Pork Loin which is pretty low gain. I appreciate you watching and hope to post a video of the roasted AL this weekend.
