My Legacy Deluxe has arrived !! (2006?)
Hi
My Legacy Deluxe finally arrived after 20 days of shippment.Perfect condition(Although they banged it arround (the G&L hardshellcase has a crack and 2 out of 3 Tremolo springs jumped out))
Maple cap on (dont know yet** Basswood or Ash),maple neck with virtually black ebony fretboard
Was abviously almost never played-->Plastic on Tremolo cover untouched
So I have restrung her and made a new setup (10-46)
Plays like a charm,very nice glassy SC sound and the SD HB goes perfect with them-->work well with Mark V which doesnt like all pickups-->is a nice sustainer although after so long never play usually such guitars are dead in the beginning(belive me).Put a 3 hours in for a start.the Tone controls function best yet( I think I have to drill a hole in my ASAT and add PTB)
Hard to picture-->with and without flash
Roland
** Craig is allready helping me THANKS

Very very nice guitar.
Tip: Use a tripod when taking pictures without the flash.

Same pickup configuration as the Legacy HB which I have. Great sound. Thanks for posting.
P.S. The neck looks a little 'dry'? Could do with some LemOil maybe on there to rehydrate it?

That could be dust, was it sitting out on a stand or display?

Looks beautiful. The first pic looked more like rosewood, others looked like ebony.
Enjoy the guitar.

I love it. It is much like my L-2500 and I am a sucker for anything close to Red!-- Darwin
