    Question for Piezo model owners

    Can I ask what PRS charged you to replace the original troublesome battery holder on your HBII with the new model?

    Guitar polish for 2003 HB II

    I have a 2003 HB II with the piezo and I just bought the PRS guitar care kit. The polish specifically warns the user not use this product on a nitro finish. So my question is: does anyone know what finish PRS was using on the HBII series in 2003?

    When did you first hear about PRS and what made you want to own one?

    Matonanjin: Anjin is Japanese for a pilot or guide and Maton makes guitars (although that is all I know about them) so I put 1 and 1 together and got the wrong answer. My bad.

    When did you first hear about PRS and what made you want to own one?

    Matonanjin: Very close. Neuroscientist, not neurologist. Good guess tho. The alternative interpretation of EEGMAN is that I am a dyslexic poultry farmer who also sells eggs. To turn the tables, perhaps you are a pilot or guide who enjoys Maton guitars?

    When did you first hear about PRS and what made you want to own one?

    Doctor Paul or just plain old Doc would work I guess. Insert joke here about prostate or hernia exam. Lets just not call him Doctor P.

    When did you first hear about PRS and what made you want to own one?

    How I first came to own a PRS Is a pretty complicated story that involves Keith Richards and a robbery and luck. I caught the guitar bug in high school when the British Invasion hit and my first electric guitar was an Egmund (guitar scholars will find that interesting as another George much...

    PRS Custom 20 - 2 Channel Combo Amp

    I was sad and a bit surprised to learn that the Custom 20/50 and the HXDA are discontinued. I'm a couch player who recently retired and am beginning the long road back to being able to play out. I thought the Custom 20/50 line was perfect for me, a fan of Classic Rock and Blues. I played an HXDA...

    Praise for Sean and PRS in general

    So while replacing the battery in my HB II, a lead from the board to the battery holder came loose. I suspect it wasn't a good solder from the get go. As I live but 35 miles from the factory it would have made no sense to ship the guitar. I contacted PRS tech and Sean arranged an appointment for...

    replacing the battery in an HBII

    I just replaced the battery in my HB II and it's a very delicate procedure; in fact, one of the leads wasn't soldered well and came off so I have that to fix tomorrow. It's a superb guitar and so I'm not complaining but it's a pretty delicate task to pull the old battery and replace it with a...

    Get your straps out

    [/IMG] Here's an original Vox Python strap I purchased at Rudy's in NYC circa 1966 or so. Never worn, still in the original case which has seen better days as it has been dragged from Brooklyn to Linden NJ to Madison WI to El Paso to Pittsburgh and then to Maryland, not 35 miles from the PRS...

    PRS model most like a Tele?

    I have a friend who loves his tele and wants to buy a second telecaster just to set up in open g for slide. My feeling is always that you should buy what moves you, but to not try a PRS before you buy something else is a mistake. Since I am not experienced with the telecaster, can this august...

    Paul becomes Dr. Smith!

    A short video of Paul being awarded his honorary doctorate by our then President, Sheila Bair (formerly of the FDIC). Not exactly new news but worth a look.
