Lokk at the guitar he uses. it's called sammy!!!

Is it a new model or a custom guitar for him?

Sammy is most probably the Candyman, Luke's hero, Sammy Davis Jr. It's hard to see in that video but it looks like custom graphics of Sammy on the guitar. (And Sammy on the headstock)

And a Toto set list spoiler too! Cool!

Thanks for posting the video Dav!

Did you guys take any decent photos when you built it ?
It's a fantastic looking guitar and I'd love to see some.
Personally I don't like the tone in that video, too nasally.
I much prefer his rack tone.

I love how Luke Changes things around all the time. Although he's still on the Hardwire Pedal kick. The Sammy is a nice Tribute Guitar. It would be good if Dudley could post some better pic's? I'm assuming the Guitar is a L3 ? Anyways I don't care what Luke Plays through. He always sounds great no matter what !
