Can you guys give me your take on the differences between the reflex and the Luke iii? I've got the reflex now, but just wondering how different the Luke iii is comparably? You know, neck size and shape, which one feels the longest physically, etc...

LIII neck has a similar overall feel with a slight "v" contour. LIII is slightly larger than Luke 2 so I'd say that the Reflex and the LIII are similar in size but not weight. Reflex is slightly taller by maybe .75" or so.
LIII has Transition Humbuckers and single coils if you get the HSS config. Reflex has the Axis pickups.
LIII has an active onboard preamp with boost, Reflex has passive circuit with Series/Parallel switching.
LIII and Reflex have the newer style input jack vs. a plate
LIII has a standard neck joint carve similar to the Axis and Albert Lee. Reflex has a slightly different neck joint carve but still easily accessible like the standard.
Reflex has a mahogany tone block and a chambered body made of basswood with a maple top
LIII has an alder body
That's about all I can think of. See the attached image to see the physical differences.

Well, folks! I can honestly say that after almost 7 years of searching, I have found my perfect fitting guitar and guitar company! EBMM is my home! My Reflex 25th anniversary is just too much to even begin! Not just loving it, but melding is more like it! Wow!
