Welcome to the forum dude. My ebmm journey also started with a luke. But a luke ii.

Enjoy the forum and the guitars.

Thanks muchly.

The Luke II would have been quite nice. What colour was yours?

It would have been nice if I had got into these guitars earlier; but I absolutely love the Lukes that I have, even though some amazing Lukes came and went long before I discovered them.

Very nice indeed. There must have been very few built.

I gather that your L3's build code is 919-LQ-DR-00-CS-CR.

Colour code 'LQ' is Bali Blue Burst.
No it is a L4 unfortunately the archive web page is gone, this was a one off vault exclusive, both blue Lukes are from the vault and one off's, the DD I is rare as is the DuBaldo Magliano

This is the pic from the vault. I was interested, too.

I am not sure why I said 'L3', as clearly it is an L4 (and if I meant 'L3', I should have expressed it as 'LIII', not 'L3'). Perhaps it was a tyop. ;-)

Would you mind providing me with the information about your instrument from the serial number database? (You can omit the serial number if you like.)

I found the following advertisement for a Luke III with a colour described as 'Bali Burst':


The serial number database for that guitar does not specify the colour.

Serial #G66178
ManufacturedJanuary 15th, 2013
Build Code919-LQ-DR-00-CS-CR
ModelLuke 3 HH

The finish on your L4 is different, which is described as 'Bali Pearlburst' in the advertisement.

I am not sure if these colours are the same.
