My first MusicMan - Albert Lee HH in a truly stunning white that my pictures don't do justice to. It has a lovely hint of cream in it.

Purchased from Stu - forum Member here - a top guy to deal with.

I have to say, this is hands down the best guitar i've ever played. Only thing i've changed is to put Schaller strap locks on, and put some White and Silver reflector knobs on in place of the standard. I though they really set off nice against the chrome covers.

Sorry, i don't know how to get the pics to show the right way up. They are the right way up on my PC but when i attach they change

Having played this guitar and fallen in love, i'm guessing this is a club that you never leave once you're in :)
Even one of my cats (Mia) loves it, and she's always been about the Strat! LOL

Oh, and is should say, another forum member here put me on to the knobs idea, so thanks to him for that

You're right. Since I purchased my first AL, I've sold all my other guitars, have no regret and no desire to play anything else.

I'd trade my fantastic Luke III in a second if someone came up with a cool AL! ( MM90 or "unusual")

Nice ride! Love that color. I got my first EBMM Albert Lee three weeks ago and ride that horse hard every day! It became my number one within an hour. Enjoy your new baby!

I am beyond pleased with this guitar - I can't walk past it without picking it up, even if it's just to strum a few chords unplugged. It is hands down the nicest guitar I've played and owned. Make me want an SSS version now!

Congrats Chris!! Great to see you're really enjoying that guitar. It really plays and sounds fantastic. All of the tones on that baby are awesome.

Also, I really love the tone of the M-Steels on that guitar. Great strings.

And great call on those silver-topped knobs. That looks stellar!!!! Seriously!

Enjoy!! :)

I pickup up my strat daily just to chill, play, study.

But when I'm feeling good, the Albert Lee comes out.

Welcome to the club. 😄

Thanks everyone :)
Do i get a pin badge as part of the ALOC? if they don;t exist, they should!
my second ball arrived unexpectedly this week - 2 months early - so another NGD thread soon once pics are ready. Naturally a group shot will involve the Albert.
There is an official "first casualty" of the ALOC membership. my Cabronita is being sold as Al covers all its bases and now it doesn't get a look in.
