lukather 's 59 burst

frenchphil · May 11, 2014

recently i found out that lukather had a 59 burst

he plays it in this video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cdr0QP0K1lo

the sound quality is bad, and i dont really like his shredding

but i was curious as to if he still has it, or sold it

is it a burst with a history? if luke has had for many years, then this burst must be heard on many records!!

any info on that one?

AFAIK, he still has 9 0494.

I can't stand Toto and I can't stand this song BUT listen to the beautiful outro @ 4:49ish. It's that Burst and some VERY FINE PLAYING, IMO.

At around 2:00 Luke's gold top makes an appearance. Wonder if he still has that.

yes very nice playing on the outro and great tone!

according to the pics posted above, the pups have been changed to di marzios or simply they have had their covers removed?

Di Marzios? :ganz

landminelenny · May 11, 2014

Steve thinks it's worth half a million dollars :ganz

frenchphil · May 11, 2014

yeah di marzio double whites

i 'm just guessing, but it is unlikely, on such an expensive guitar to put di marzio

Looks like it has Grovers, don't it? :rofl

landminelenny · May 11, 2014

They're Schallers.

That is a great looking burst, I've always like this one :salude

Some fine vintage amps in that picture too!

Those are Yamaha Grover knock offs on it. I have over the past two years found few missing pieces for my great friend Luke. It now has its proper tuners, Wireless ABR-1 and stop tail piece. After that its one of the best you will play. :dude:

PS those pickups are not super distortions:2zone .
