Another ALOC Membership Request

[travs]

with the HH hardtail and trem coming soon. The Albert may be the most complete weapon of all of the sacred balls? pure genius I say.

 

[robelinda2]

All Albert's are equally THE BEST! I do love the SSS too, one new one will come my way this year.

 

[roburado]

Sheesh. All this talk and no picture. Where's the picture?

 

[Jack FFR1846]

I have an idea of what the AL looks like....

......since you've been throwing those "CLEARANCE" stickers on them!!!

....yah....I noticed. I just happen to be coming down there next Monday.....warn Nick....he always groans when I walk in.

ALOC members, forgive me of my sins. I used to refer to your chosen guitar as ugly, odd, and other unpleasant adjectives. I have changed my ways and seek absolution --- and membership in your ranks.

I got my new AL MM90 hardtail nearly 2 weeks ago and literally played it for the first time this past Sunday night with my band. I am officially a convert. The MM90's rock..... And the neck is fantastic.

So, ALOC members, can I join or will my past transgressions torpedo my chances????

You're in! I too thought the Albert Lee was a ridiculous looking guitar... until I played one.

Still no pics...

In order to process your membership request in a timely manner we need to see photographic proof as soon as possible...

Congratulations mb99zz! I'll congratulate you again after the pictures.

maybe it's a hoax

 

[mb99zz]

No hoax, I swear! I just updated the first post with pics. It's a DDII MM90 hardtail acquired from Pete (per his hint) and I'm loving it. I've been lusting after one ever since I played an MM90 a while back. I'm not a fan of maple boards and was debating whether to jump on a DDII or hold out for the RW AL we've been seeing online. At the end of the day, the MM90's made that decision for me.

 

[Sweat]

Alright then, thats fing nice, good job and conrats on scoring that, sweet neck.

I vote in

 

[threeminutesboy]

now we're talking

same as mine (except I have a DD I) Enjoy it's a killing guitar really

 

[GWDavis28]

It's a DDII MM90 hardtail acquired from Pete (per his hint) and I'm loving it.

That was a smart move, congrats! Is it the one with matching HS and Piezo...?
Those DDII's really are stunning in person!

 

[mb99zz]

Thanks guys! I'm pretty excited about it. Coffeemug - it's just a standard MM90 hardtail -- no Peizo.

So, a side story: I remember reading a thread a while back about what reactions AL owners got from other people when first seeing their AL. I was wondering what my bandmates would say on Sunday. The first to speak up was our bassist - "hey, that's cool man". Then our singer - "yeah, that's a cool looking guitar". Then I got a handful of green jokes.

 

[catdaddy]

It's gorgeous mb99zz! Congratulations again!

 

[Coffeemug]

That's a very nice Albert, great neck! Congrats again.

 

[mbgreene]

Many have questioned the AL in the past...until they try it and obtain enlightenment.

All is forgiven and please accept the official welcome of the CIC

The ring is being forged and the handbook on its way

 

[tornandfrayed]

I love the dargies...what style of music do you play!

 

[mb99zz]

I typically play rock, jazz, alternative (what ever the heck that means anymore), blues, and even a little reggae/ska here and there. About the only thing I don't play is metal or country. My band pretty much plays rock/alternative.
