AL numero Dos is here!!!

Well pleasant suprise when I got home my latest addition was on the porch a day earlier than expected!

Now the story just bear with me please, I had been looking at this and talking to Pete about it but wasnt 100% sold on the color but it did have a peizo which was mandatory for my next EBMM, thought about maybe ordering something in a different color but then the fingbeagle family had few rough weeks, especially my wife Cindy, which made the decision to take the trans orange easy.

She does not have much family still living and first her last uncle passed away, then a few days later we found ourselves in the ICU with her mother, she passed away just 2 days later, so a rough week, now both of her parents and her brother are gone.

So to get to the point, I bought this to honor her mother and father, her mothers favorite color was orange and her Dads name was Al. Sentimental yes I am plus I now have another great AL to go along with the BFR

Almost forgot to thank Pete and Nick for working with me and all the great people at EBMM for these great guitars!!
So pics please!




And a perfect pair

Welcome to the fold - owning 2 AL's, one with SSS the other with MM90's and a Piezo.

Now Fing - get to try the piezo through an acoustic amp - 'cos a regular one won't do it justice.

Nice one! (or should I say two?)

Keith,

Very sorry to hear about the deaths in your family. Thoughts got out to you and your wife.

That's a nice tribute guitar you've got there. Looks great.

Spud I have become an AL man, this thing is awesome, love the tones from it and I bought a nice acoustic amp, not an AER out of my league but a Genz-Benz sounds nice. Hopefully my probation is up and my ring sent
