Picked up what I think is a sweet Luke III yesterday for basically $900. Sunburst with Rosewood neck.
My first EB/MM...I did try out a JP a few years ago but couldn't get on with the neck at the time so I returned it...I had been playing a couple Les Pauls and some PRS models then, but for the last year or so I have been more actively playing some Ibanez Prestige models and after a spell with those necks I guess I was more tolerant of the Luke neck. Kind of like when I jumped from an iPhone 5 to the the 6Plus I returned it thinking it was way too big - after a year with the regular 6 I went to the 6Plus S and it seemed fine!
I'm really digging the Luke and especially the rosewood neck. My band is in the process of recording an ep and I look forward to doing some tracking with the Luke in the studio soon...getting some super tones out of her.
Thinking of maybe adding a Morse model next - not the Y2D but the original one because I'm interested in the sounds it can get but I've never played one - what are the necks on those like compared to the Luke? Those seem a bit harder to track down than the Y2D models and even those aren't seen around my area much. JP's everywhere and some Luke's but rarely a Morse model.
