Which AL?

[ScreaminFloyd]

The look of the Albert Lee MM has grown on me so much that i need some advise on which AL to get. Humbuckers , SSS or P90's Humbuckers with the African Mohagany or SSS or P90's with the Southern Ash. Is there an option for 2 P90's rather than 3 ? Has anyone played all 3 AL's including the BFR ? Please help thanks.

Which EBMM's are in your arsenal now?

Are you looking to depart in a direction tonally from what you have? Or something to supplement what you already have?

 

[ScreaminFloyd]

Luke, Axis SS , JP6BFR , Axis

to have a complete panel of sound regards your rig
i'll buy a SSS or P90
a friend have a bfr sss and said to me that it was the best sss guitar ever played (he had more 20 guitars at home..)

 

[Smellybum]

any one! -just get one!

THe BFR is a tone orgasam - the toneblock compliments the amazing standard in an AL as is. The HH Model is the most dynamic guitar for me - and a stock single SSS is a great guitar, never been lucky enough to get a shot of a MM90 model but never heard a bad word about them either!

Played them all, loved them all.

Sounds like you are a humbucker person...
Do you want a single coil sound?
If so, try the MM90. Still sound strat-like but fatter.
Otherwise try the HH.

I've played SSS with trem,SSS Hardtail, MM90 and a BFR.

Played a HH but not in anger.

I have the HH option covered with my JP6 and EVH. What guitar do I go for first? the 05 BCB AL SSS.
Love it.

Played them all, loved them all.

I've played the MM90 and the HH. I love the MM90's. The HH is my next favorite. I think it comes down to what you are looking for as far as sounds and what not. Only you can pick the one(s) that's right for you.

Good luck, Glenn |B)

Played the SSS and I have the MM90 that I just love

still want to try a HH for the mahogany feel as I have Axis Supert Sport and an EVH covering the HH ground

I'm with both Robs

I demo'd an HH rosewood neck Al the other day, totally blown away with it! simply amazing. good luck, tough decisions!

Get the AL HH and you probably will not touch you Axis guitars for quite some time.

Get the AL HH and you probably will not touch you Axis guitars for quite some time.

Ain't that the truth... or the JP for that matter. I've been going back and forth between the AL and Luke, there's not much you can't do with both of them.

Here's my opinion:

From your question about a 2 MM90 option....I don't like the lack of space between pickups of the MM90 Al. But.....you could buy an MM90 AL and then have Chandler make you a 2 pickup pickguard. I love the MM90's on my ASS.

HH: it's going to replace your ASS!

SSS: I am not an SSS guy, but my Al SSS is just heaven to play.
