I would assume that a maple top on a Luke would add an edge it doesn't have as an all alder axe...not everyone may like this....

That is just cruel! I haven't received my Luke yet and now I have to start justifying my next purchase to my girlfriend... I hope Luke likes that proto

Potentially yes you're right. But have faith
The tone blocks BP mentioned in his post are (i'm assuming) the mahogany tone block used in the 20th anniversary silos. This should offset any edge brought on by the maple top and hopefull add some extra punch. Only those who've tried out a 20th silo can really say tho. Sadly I'm not a member of that club.
This Luke is gonna rip!

Plus there is no point in developing a new guitar that sounds exactly like the old one... I'm sure that if Luke and BP like it, it will be an awesome instrument

I would think that Luke would Love a Maple/Mahogany Combo.
Back in the day, 1985-1992(?) He used VA Guitars that were
Maple Top /Mahogany Middle /Maple Back with an Ebony Fret Board on a Maple Neck.
His other main guitar, the VA "Robot", was a Mahogany Body/Maple Neck/Ebony Fretboard
I really hope a Maple Mahogany Luke sees the light of day!!!!

Me, too.
I prefer the sound of the Robot to that of the Luke, but I recognize that a lot of that could be because of his amp and/or effects.
