It's here!!

And it's stunning...

"Candy Red" with matching headstock. The colour is much deeper than on the website, and has a metallic zing to it.

The only concern is that the middle pickup is right where I normally "pick". Am I right in assuming it can't be lowered. Would I have to route the body out? :eek:

Apart from that, I'm pretty much in love.....in fact my fingers hurt!!

Congrats! I have a Candy Red w/ natural headstock. The Luke is an awesome guitar. I do some finger picking occasionally and I just had to adjust where my hand rests. It was an easy adjustment. W/ the pick I've never had a problem. Best of luck!

Man wish I could, it is just a practice makes perfect type of thing, just adjust up or down a touch and get use to it!

Sorry, I thought you meant I would figure out how to lower the pickup....I think I'm going to try to pick inside it, although waching lucious on a couple of DVDs, he seems to pick towards the neck to avoid it. As you say, I'm sure I'll get it. It's feeling more natural already, and WOW is this neck good!!!! Back the practice!!
