Description
The next evolution in a process that began 25 years ago with the first "Luke" model guitar, the Luke III BFR (Ball Family Reserve) adds new levels of tone and versatility to an already premium instrument. More than just a stunningly beautiful example of the art of modern luthiery, it's also designed to meet the performing needs of a touring guitarist. A solid alder body with an embedded mahogany tone block is topped with gorgeously flamed maple and loaded with DiMarzio Transition pickups with coil splits and a Music Man preamp with 15dB of available boost with a simple push on the volume pot. A hand-rubbed oil and wax finish graces the fast, smooth, roasted maple neck with rosewood fingerboard for comfortable easy playing. If you've been considering a seriously premium instrument, this one is well worth picking up. You may not be able to put it down.
