And here it is. What a beauty, what a player. Something weird happened with the recording, but I'll sort that out later. I'm just stoked to show this gem off

Aren't the frets on the tumescent different than the others?

Nice collection! How would you describe the differences of the necks on the different models?I own four Luke’s.
A Luke 1, two Luke 2’s and an LIII.
They are all my main gigging guitars, well when such a thing as gigs used to happen!
Thanks!Nice collection! How would you describe the differences of the necks on the different models?
Damn, that's super cool that they kinda went back to the more pronounced V of the first model. That's my all time favourite neck. Are both Luke 2s fatter and softer than your 1 and 3? I assume your 1 has had a refret?Thanks!
Re: the neck profiles, the Luke 1 and LIII are very similar actually. Super slim and fast. The low profile frets on the LIII make it even slimmer feeling, although it actually isn't. They are both great for lead playing/soloing.
The Luke 2's, although still with v shaped necks, are a bit beefier, definitely a bit softer v, with more shoulder. For me, these are better for rhythm playing for extended periods, causing less fatigue. Good all-rounders, I'd say.
Yes both Luke 2s have slightly fatter necks.Damn, that's super cool that they kinda went back to the more pronounced V of the first model. That's my all time favourite neck. Are both Luke 2s fatter and softer than your 1 and 3? I assume your 1 has had a refret?
Cool, thanks man!Yes both Luke 2s have slightly fatter necks.
id say the red PDN is the most chunky. And yes, my Luke 1 has had a refret once, but with the same size fretwire, so it’s basically as it should be.
No worries, oh, and an unrelated question, have you made any further progress with the tri stereo chorus settings?Cool, thanks man!
The tri? Well, I use the new tri chorus type in the III (which wasn't there in the II) for my own preset that I actually use. I run it in mono though, so it's tweaked for my liking. For the upcoming Luke preset, I won't be using the tri, but the dual stereo one (dailed in to sound like the TC 1210).No worries, oh, and an unrelated question, have you made any further progress with the tri stereo chorus settings?
Great, thanks for the update. Yes I meant the chorus. not that I use it very much, but it's good for the occasional 80's thing.The tri?

If you mean the PCM70, I'm done with those. I really don't think there is a way to get even closer.
I just checked my settings. For stereo, try these (all others stock):Great, thanks for the update. Yes I meant the chorus. not that I use it very much, but it's good for the occasional 80's thing.
Great, I’ll give those a try, thanks!I just checked my settings. For stereo, try these (all others stock):
Rate: 1 hz
Left depth: 76.4 %
Middle depth: 78.9 %
Right depth: 75.8 %
Master depth: 60.6 %
Mix to taste
I would recommend setting the mix around 55-66%. These settings are basically the biggest and swirliest chorus I could dial in without it sounding out of tuneGreat, I’ll give those a try, thanks!
I have also two 2020 L3's and I love the new Pickups, so much clarity and dynamic.These purdy ladies showed up at my door yesterday...
