[Robert]

Endorsed by Marilyn?

Take the darn thing outta the box, man!!

 

[aeolian]

The suspense is unbearable, I can't watch anymore.

 

[luvmyshiner]

You ordered Marilyn??? And they sent her in a box??? Dude, I'm no expert . . . but I'm thinking she has to be a little rough by now.

Oh well, if they sent her by UPS I'm sure she's broken anyway.:rotflmao:

 

[Algonquin]

Something like this??? :bravo:

Oh, man! I wish you guys would use the Fret.net image hosting function rather than Photobucket and similar 3rd party photo hosting sites! A lot of network proxy software blocks these sites, so poor corporate lackeys like me have to wait until we get home to see the gear porn! :reallymad:

[bigoldron]

Spudster, she's a real beauty! How does she compare the SZ?

 

[sumitomo]

Oh my!!!!!!!!!!! SSSSSSSSSSwing Sumi

 

[Bloozcat]

Very nice indeed!

So, with a name like "Luke", is it expected to do supernatural kind of things?

It sure looks like it could....:master:

 

[sunvalleylaw]

You ordered Marilyn??? Dude, I'm no expert . . . but I'm thinking she has to be a little rough by now.

LOL!!! :rotflmao:

 

[Spudman]

Spudster, she's a real beauty! How does she compare the SZ?

No comparison. Totally different feel and sound plus the SZ has no tremolo.

Alder body on the Luke mahogany on the SZ. Active pickups on the Luke passive on the SZ.

The Luke models either Musicman or OLP are guitars that the more you play them the more you say "wow! this neck is amazing."

Jealous, have a good evening. Im going shopping. Thanks.
