Welcome to Day 12 of my annual New Year's New Guitar Days (NYNGD)!
Thanks for the kind words and comments on NYNGD #2022-11!
OK, more steady progress! Let's get right into NYNGD #2022-12!
Today's guitar is a one-off "Connoisseur Cuts" Luke 3 that I bought from the EBMM Vault in Dark Blueberry Quilt. A really beautiful one-off with its alder body with a dark blueberry quilt maple cap, rosewood fretboard with white binding, roasted maple neck, and black hardware. Wow!
Surprisingly this guitar sat on the Vault site for a few weeks before I finally gave in and snarfed it up. (Unlike the Candyman Red and Iceman Blue one-offs that sold in a day last week and I missed out).
She sounds great -- a little brighter I think than most Luke 3's... not sure if that's the wood or the DiMarzio Transition pickups.
Pretty great guitar, right?
I'll be back soon with another NYNGD: New Year's New Guitar Day! We're getting closer! Only 7 left from 2022's run! Thanks for looking everyone!
Past Days:
The new EBMM message board limits the number of characters in a post so I can't put a list of direct links in the post. Click here for an index.
(The back story in case you're new to my NYNGD: For the past couple of years I've done a fun thing that most of you I think enjoyed, and I thought I would do it again this year. Every year, I am a slacker about keeping my Guitar Gallery up to date... So, as a fun holiday thing, let's launch a guitar in the Guitar Gallery each day leading up to New Years Eve! In the past I've received PM's about my collection and whether I play all of these guitars.
The same question came up during my NYNGD posts a few years ago and my answer was pretty detailed and well thought-out, so please check it out here!)
(Also, in case anybody gets any funny ideas -- these guitars are not at my house. They are all in my very secure and alarmed studio facility. I usually only have two guitars floating around the house...)
