Glen stopped by the office on Friday and he brought the Albert Lee with the 2 humbuckers and rosewood neck. This had a mahogany body, all rosewood neck, trem, 2 covered humbuckers. Finished in red. Fingerboard inlays were larger than the standard Music Man.

This guitar made me sick. The combination of the rosewood neck and mahogany body is a winner. Every single note was fat and very even response across the board.

When they hit the streets they will be a winner. Anyone that understands what makes a great guitar cannot deny the fatness and perfect rock tone this guitar will produce.

I begged Glen to let me keep this guitar for a few weeks, to ahem, test it. I called him after he left and begged again.

A real winner here and I will own one. Its that good!

Sterling, if you need a field tester. I am your man. Please. I got to have this guitar.

yes I reread that you said the red one... now the correct pic is there - what a freaking nice Al - and it's easy to understand anyone wanting one badly. I'd want the white hardtail tough.....

yeah thats the one. every single note was just dripping fat. like a fat burger just dripping in greasy fatness. totally versatile. the 5 way switch positions 2 and 4 give a great realistic single coil sounds.

Did you guys notice that it says "BP" in the inlay of the Big Poppa Al? Pat - did you get a chance to play the triple hummer Al? Would you like it over the twin hummer version?
