Luke III by Rob Chappers

Here is an interesting review of Luke III by Rob Chappers. Sounds like he is really impressed by the guitar sound and build quality

Music Man Steve Lukather Luke III - YouTube:

Ha! Hilarious! Music Man = Gateway drugs, 'cause if you like one you're cursed to always play a Music Man!

We'll forgive the little factual errors 'cause these guys have SO much fun and know some great gear when they see it! And damn if that LIII doesn't scream!

Choice quote (among many) - "Wow! It's making my hands go faster than they normally go!"

 

[Vovka]

Totally agree! It was funny. To tell you the truth I always have a feeling that my fingers are faster with a MusicMan in my hands!

 

[fogman]

Awesome!

They get it.

I love Chappers. Just a cool guy.

 

[fogman]

I've never tried the v-neck shape, but I want that guitar!

 

[yellowv03]

Now I really want a Luke III. Damn you Chappers.

Half-decent review from a comparison standpoint, when they actually stopped talking bollocks and got on with it. They didn't know the Luke II was a Luke II, so they get severely marked down for that. Despite how frustrating/annoying these guys were, their review has gone some way to swaying my opinion on the LIII. Now my interest has been piqued once again.

Well I need a LukeIII now. Jeez, diverted again. I do notice that I break speed limits with my EBMM too.

Had a chance to try an HH LukeIII at a GC in Nashville a few weeks ago & was really impressed. Had to resist the urge to bring it back home to MA. The "spank" on the tone control is awesome, truly like having a nice transparent clean boost built in. The olive gold color is beautiful in person too.

Well this vid ignited the GAS and it looks like I may have one coming my way. That thing just looks and soubds fantastic.

Nice review! And I agree with Foggy - they got it. I wouldn't be surprised to see Chappers using one in future reviews of other gear.

Has given my GAS a little boost...once again :s

Love the new passive pup tones in comparison to the EMG pups...

They do sound good, for a change but I'll always prefer the EMG's.

20 minutes of mostly talking nonsense is unnecessary. I know they're having fun and all, but that's not a proper way to do a demo IMO. When they do play it's good of course. Anyway, I DO want one!!!

Why so serious?

Thats how they do all of the reviews at Anderton's. It is a nice change of pace compared to most reviews, I think.
