So, after fighting a bit with a brand-new LK100D which I never was able to feel quite right (I don't use trems much so I generally deck floaters and add springs) I ended up returning it. Special thanks to Brian for trying to get me all fixed up.
So a few days later I found THIS for sale from a good local one-man-dealer guy, and I had to do it. It must have been fate:
I LOVE THIS THING. Took her home, slapped on some .10s, added some springs, decked the trem, tweaked the saddles a bit...PERFECT. There is not a mark on her. Apparently its previous owner was a LP fanatic who wanted something a bit more modern-sounding - guess this didn't fit the bill. He apparently never even played the thing. The 9V had a 2015 expiration date so not sure how long this baby sat - but she's going to see some action now.
This is the exact model & color that endeared me to EBMM a few years ago, and that I always regretted not pulling the trigger on at the time. I think she's particularly pretty - some really nice alder, a gorgeous neck, and a perfect burst. I don't have to tell you how she feels and sounds. So now my BFR has a kissin' cousin.
