i was wondering why it seems like compared to other EBMM instruments, I just don't see Albert Lees for sale. None of the big web EBMM dealers seems to have this model ever on offer. On Reverb I often see people selling used BFRs and standard ones, but if I just wanted a basic HH model, there aren't many. The only one I see loads of is unsold BFRs in Cherry Punch (which I like but I want a trem and prefer the pickguard look, so that one's not really gonna do it for me). Also lots of the Ghost In the Shell BFRs.
When my finances pan out I'd really like to get an Emerald City HH AL but they're only factory direct and I've only ever seen one on Reverb after it had already sold. Never saw a pic of one in the wild aside from the Reverb pics and the EBMM press photos.
I know it has to be one of the most beloved models of EBMM instruments and one of the coolest and most original, aesthetically. It just seems like production and/or distribution of this model is a lot lower for some reason and I don't believe it could just be a lower demand.
