Steve Lukather has been one of my favorite guitarists going all the way back to Toto’s first album. You did this beautiful guitar justice. Great video.
Sustain is amazing on this guitar. the sound is evenly when moving up an down on the neck. I find that some guitars don't balance well when moving around on the neck when played. Great guitar.
I love the headstock design with straight string pull, and a compact size making the reach more comfortable. Neck measurements are a little thinner than I like, but the shoulder size makes a big difference in feel too. It seems like Jon likes it............cheers!
Hi Jonathan, when you mentioned “it plays like butter”, I couldn’t agree more. Perrrfection in every aspect and has the looks ‘to boot’. Loved the tones and when in boost in position 1 & 2 it seemed even more responsive under pick than in other positions. Great review. Cheers ✌️🎸💜
It looks like they have a new battery compartment design. I have an L3 with the EMG pickups. Excellent guitar and still playing it. But I did have to replace the battery compartment after about 7 years of use. I love HH on the Luke model.
Im not a fan of green guitars but that clear coat is awsome, it gives an almost holographic effect to the dark green flames on the upper horn! I love the Ernie Ball headstock design and that birdseye maple is beautiful! Gorgeous clean tones!
The first song reminds me of the music and guitar sound from Eye in the Sky by Allan Parsons. Beautiful sound. After that wow the tone is so mellow, but with character. I'll have to listen to some Lukather to get a feel how he uses this tone. Great video brother Jon. Peace from West Texas ;)
Correction, 5 screw neck plates. But we all know that. Thanx Jon. These MM sig. models are all extraordinary. I'm hoping they drop a Rabea sig. in the Sterling line.
Lovely play through at the start, sounded great, but I suspect you can make anything sound good! I have been seriously considering one of these for a while now, so thanks for the insightful review. Unfortunately they are not cheap so might have to sell first!
Puny neck and frets. C'mon Ernie Ball, make a version of this fantastic guitar that will appeal to more players. Signed, holding my wallet ready to buy. (And yes guys, I understand this is a Luke sig.)
Thanks a lot for your review. On a critical note; you claim to be a big fan of Steve. Unfortuanately - although your melodic playing is very nice - you have not incorporated Steve excellent fingering technique. You almost always omit the fourth finger and make unorthodox stretches to get the intervals. No problem in the slower parts but it very apparently failing in faster runs. That being said I do appreciate your video. Thanks.
I’m a big fan.. it doesn’t mean I play like him. We are all individuals beings.. if only more people would listen to music using their ears instead of their eyes.✌🏻❤️
I want one so bad but it's almost $4k and they don't even give you a hard case. Wtf ? That just really rubs me the wrong way. Any high end instrument like that, anything over $1500 should come with a good quality hard case
Hate the headstock! The guitar may play great, the headstock may be very functional, but I cant get past its appearance! Do not like it! Sounds petty or silly,but will never buy one because of that!

I sold my PRS special. Semi hollow to buy this guitar .super versatile. Easy to play. Just beautiful guitar
Great decision!!!❤️
My wife just looked at me said " No." 😂 What a beautiful guitar and what a beautiful song. 🫶🏻
Lol
Happy that man,who found a beautiful wife,who always says yes to her husband. )))
@@fender1430I would say buy it anyway but you have to sell during the divorce so you can’t win
Too funny. Sounds familiar.
No wife, but my bank account is looking at me funny.
The Steve Lukather model is one of the most beautiful guitars made today. Sounds great too.
Couldn't agree more!

Thank you kindly!

Very wonderful balance between emotional feeling and technical acrobatics on the solo track on the demo song
Thank you ✌️❤️
beautiful melody on a beautiful guitar...
Glad you like it!

Oh yes I do!!
Love this guitar!!!
Me too!!

Thank you Rodger!

Cool, thanks
Smooth fingers✌ Good people make happy living.
✌️❤️
Superb playing and tone....great job! I have the Luke III in Olive sparkle and you just inspired me to play it even more than I already do!
Awesome! Thank you!
luv it Master
✌️❤️
Lucky to have a Luke 3 in blue sparkle, amazing guitars extremely versatile, love the review.
Awesome!!
Wonderful playing! Nice guitar 👍
Thank you big brother.. see y’all later at the live stream
Sounds great in Jons hands but that is no surprise! One day i would love to try a Music Man!
You should
Im not a fan of green guitars but that clear coat is awsome, it gives an almost holographic effect to the dark green flames on the upper horn!
I love the Ernie Ball headstock design and that birdseye maple is beautiful!
Gorgeous clean tones!
How can you not like this guitar...... As a gift from someone..... :D :D......
Totally agree!
@@mylogify I dont dislike it, I just dont like green guitars for some unknown reason, I am pretty sure other colours are available of this model.
The first song reminds me of the music and guitar sound from Eye in the Sky by Allan Parsons. Beautiful sound. After that wow the tone is so mellow, but with character. I'll have to listen to some Lukather to get a feel how he uses this tone. Great video brother Jon.
Peace from West Texas ;)
Thank you Greg ✌️
Correction, 5 screw neck plates. But we all know that. Thanx Jon. These MM sig. models are all extraordinary. I'm hoping they drop a Rabea sig. in the Sterling line.
lol.. yes 5 screw.. what am I thinking of?
In a momo softbag ... like a nice honda civic gt-r
Superb melody and tune
Thank you
Very nice playing Jon. I have the bad feeling that I am going to have to crash my bank account or sell my liver to purchase this guitar 😄
Lol
👍We also need this :). Nice guitars are endless...
Tell me about it!!!
"This beatiful guitar from.. *looks at headstock* kek. Beautiful guitar indeed.
Indeed it is!
Great review Jon! Thank you!
Thank you
Jon please do a demo of the Rabea Music Man! That guitar is stunning!
I’ll try
Gator Burst, stunning look. If you have 5K left over
✌🏻😂✌🏻
amazing melodic playing!
Thank you
Yes
✌️❤️
Lovely play through at the start, sounded great, but I suspect you can make anything sound good!
I have been seriously considering one of these for a while now, so thanks for the insightful review. Unfortunately they are not cheap so might have to sell first!
true...
That Guitar is a Beauty, I think MM makes the finest Guitars.....what are the main differences in feel between this guitar and your other SL guitar
Not much except the pups… EMGs on mine
@@JonIsJustTooLoud you are a lucky guy
Steve Lukather, My iDol
👌
You mentioned you have the L1 and L2. Did those not have as narrow of a nut?
My L3 is also narrow. I like it personally.
Yes they all do! ✌️❤️
Dear Jon what is the action of your guitar? I bought the same guitar, but I feel that the frets are too low. Your reviews are really great!
You can adjust the height yourself ✌🏻❤️
I have an L1 an L2 and 2 L3s need an L4 next.
Non of the necks on my Lukes are exactly the same.
Luke says it because they are hand sanded/finished.
True.. and all have the famous gun oil finish ❤️
@@JonIsJustTooLoud The original Luke neck was a copy of his Valley Arts Robot neck.
so tasty!
Thanks
Check out Tory Slusher, or the guy playing a 3 string slide shovel guitar. They have more talent than any Nashville session gear salesman.
Awesome
Puny neck and frets. C'mon Ernie Ball, make a version of this fantastic guitar that will appeal to more players. Signed, holding my wallet ready to buy. (And yes guys, I understand this is a Luke sig.)
wait some more...
Totally agree, I owned a III and would have kept it it the neck were bigger as well as the frets

Jon have you done the LS20 by FGN ?
Nope not yet
I want one so bad but it's almost $4k and they don't even give you a hard case. Wtf ? That just really rubs me the wrong way. Any high end instrument like that, anything over $1500 should come with a good quality hard case
@@carlhungus2521 I agree…✌🏻
Still have my Luke 3! Love those guitars!
5 screw neck plate🤔
Oops!
Hate the headstock! The guitar may play great, the headstock may be very functional, but I cant get past its appearance! Do not like it! Sounds petty or silly,but will never buy one because of that!
To each his own..
Then don’t. Too much drama
Manque peut-être un peu de basse…..
Eh.. c'est la vie😊
Quel prix pour cette horreur….???😂😂😂
