- thousand thanks to my crazy brother, my best friend, Gustaaf.. to make this guitar arrived in Indonesia.. (i love that carbon blue LUKE 2 in your room .. please tell me if you get bored.. .. )
- and million thx for both of you (ponch and guustaf) to bring the back plate to be signed by king Lukather himself at the ebmm gathering in texas.. (thx you Mr. Lucious.. )
- thanks to andry(he is not member of our forum) to bring this guitar with him on the plane..

I would order another backplate from EBMM, so you can protect the autograph.

 

[ba2m]

yeah.. that's a good idea..
i planned to take the plate off for a while until i get the new one.. that signature is priceless for me..

@augustyn
thx man, yeah ithe story is like a dream come true for me,i dream this guitar 11 ears ago, i watched a video clip of local band here in television..and just fall in love to that guitar.. (i even don;t know who is lukather and what is musicman at that time ), after i know that guitar was discontinued i used to think that i will never play this guitar..and i've collected some of this guitar pics in internet..and put the pics as the desktop background for my office computer and my laptop ..
so.. yersterday was very exciting for me.. wish me luck for LUKE II.. i hope i can get that guitar next year.. (end of the year.. coz next year's january is already next week from now )..thx!

@quarter
thx man.. i really love the red ..

@rob
Hi Rob, thx for being very kind , very supportive and very helpful to a junior member like me, i have lots of information about ebmm from you and some friends in this forum..

@Brent
Hi Brent, thx,your evh's are also amazing.. i've amazed with your collection even before i joined in this forum.. (i saw you and your girl in you tube) .. great guitars man .. great playing too..
you have to try LUKE sometimes..and feel the difference
yesterday i said to our friend who has LUKE II (ponch) that im amazed with this guitar, and he said "wait till u try LUKE II (he say it with smile!!) " , i heard that LUKE II is a killer..
and i really can't imagine what happened with that mahogany tone block in luke 3.. even this first version of luke is already killing me.. and i'm planning to sell my F*ender and saving for LUKE II(i think it will be Carbon Blue Pearl, i also really love that color..)

@lenny
thx man, those people who helping me are like angels from heaven.. God answer my pray and send those angels
but.. can you imagine there is an angel looks like this

hahaha.. that's gustaaf guys, he use his first name (barry) as his nickname in our forum..


Merry Christmas for all of u and your family..may your christmas dream can come true.. like my dream comes true in this christmas.. thx God..
