Nice.. more EB in Canada! Sweet.

Not to bring up the dreaded topic again, but I just noticed how similar the curves and shape of the body on the AL are to the P****y Wolf**** guitar.
 
I saw that on TheGearForum and I was very tempted, but negative cash flow denied it to me!!!!

Awesome looking AL, get those pictures on the Picture Post sticky.

Later, Glenn |B)

Hit google or wikipedia and search for "all your base are belong to us". You'll see.
 
Paraphrasing Wikipedia:

The text "All your base are belong to us!" is taken from the poorly-translated opening found in the English version of the Japanese video game Zero Wing, originally produced by Toaplan in 1989. The infamous quotations were taken from the European localization of the Sega Mega Drive port released in 1992. Zero Wing was never released in North America, and therefore never came to the Sega Genesis, the North American Mega Drive. The phrase is also often used as a battle cry on many competitive video games, particularly ones played over the Internet.

I was a huge gaming fanatic and deep in the industry in the late '80s and early '90s, and actually owned a copy of the megadrive Zero Wing for a while (actually, I had dev, boot and review copies of just about every game released between 1987 and 2003 for any and all systems, including the Neo Geo - I literally had closets full of the things on cart and disk)... Anyway, the phrase was frequently heard around the original DOOM arenas and was auto-generated as a kill cry by a lot of the guys playing that and Air Warrior and Warbirds when it was first released (I was beta testing that one back then)... It ratcheted up into popular parlance thanks to the I'net, but I fondly remember it as a geek call from a time before the W3 was populated by everybody, their Grandmother and their dog...
 
Congrats! That's a wondeful specimen. I was extremekly tempted by it when it first went up for sale, and if it had a trem, it'd be mine! :)
 
Thanks for the support guys.After an 8 month journey of up and downs my jonesin for an Albert Lee has ended.The great thing is this guitar sounds and plays as good as it looks. :D

Spudmurphy hang in there.
 
Yah those are after market. The guy that use to own that posted it in the Picture Post sticky once. I love the Tele knobs on them, they look really cool. I have Tele knobs on mine too.
