FS: Musicman Albert Lee
Jack A. Zucker
back prior to my spinal surgery because of it's light weight. Now that I'm
partially recovered I'm going to get rid of it because I don't really need
it. It's a sunburst with birdseye maple neck, 3 duncan aps-2 single coil
pickups, hard-tail, no dummy coil (yeah-baby).
It's got a couple chips in the finish but is a really great guitar
otherwise. It's like a combination of a great maple neck tele and maple neck
strat. Blows away any of the fenders or G&L guitars in terms of tone and
playability. It's not as fat sounding as a tele, however. Probably due to
the lighter weight body.
Anyway, I'll get pictures up later but I'm looking to get $650+shipping
which is less than I paid for it.

I'd also consider trades for cool amp heads or guitars or cabinets or
recording gear.

and it would be tough to part with it. I'm sure the Albert Lee is the same
high quality, but I just can't hang with that wacky shape! ;-) Now, give me
a Vee, explorer, Mockingbird, Bich.... those I can handle.

I owned a first year Albert Lee and really liked it.. At that time my
main guitar was a Musicman EVH guitar and I felt the Albert would be
pretty close neck wise and give me the single coil thing. In the end I
missed a whammy bar on it. The guitar was almost too light too.. I
liked the shape of the body. It hung good on a strap.
Outt..

The shape's quite sensible when you see it in the flesh/wood. Like something
Leo would do now if he hadn't already done the tele.

What did you think of those Duncan APS-2's....

It's funny - They're great in this particular guitar but I thought they were
awful in the two Hamer Daytonas I used to own. I suspect that they are not
the stock APS pickups that Duncan normally sells. The bridge has a plate on
the bottom so right off, that one isn't a stock pickup...
The flat pole pieces work great. I have flat pole pickup on my Tokai Strat
that work great. They're just so much nicer than the staggered poles IMO.
I wouldn't recommend the Duncan APS pickups for general replacements. If
you're looking for some great pickups, contact Bruce Morgan
(edi...@juno.com). He sold a set of Alnico 5, flat pole pickups for $40.
That's for the set of 3. They are as good as any strat pickups I've ever
used including Fralins and other boutique pickups...
