I have been patiently but eagerly waiting since my trip to the Magic Fluke Co headquarters in Sheffield, MA nearly two weeks ago or so. It was there where I was given the privilege to personally participate in the hand selection of the Hawaiian Koa top and Rosewood fretboard woods of this Custom build, as well as adding the optional peghead tuners, and with the encouragement of some UU members here, the upgraded B-Band electronics.
When the UPS truck arrive over an hour ago, I grabbed my camera for the unboxing photos, and since it's only been here for that short time, I have only been able to spend a bit of time playing it, but so far it is exceeding all my expectations and then some! By adding the B-Band electronics I certainly exceeded my budget for this build, but I am so glad I did as it will pay dividends in it's overall capabilities. And having it installed during the Fluke's assembly process, I won't have to worry damage by having one retrofitted in the future.
All I can say so far is if any one is considering ordering from the Magic Fluke company, expect to be treated with utmost care and respect by the nicest people I have had the pleasure of working with in any musical instrument order ever. This hand built in Sheffield, MA Fluke shows extreme attention to detail, and only confirms all the accolades shared by the many Fluke, Flea and Firefly owners that routinely praise their instruments. More to come, but for the meantime here are the photos link:
