These folks are local to me; https://www.guitarsanctuary.com/paul-reed-smith/electric/ The have a number of them. I wouldn't mind one, but just ordered another Anderson through the same dealer. But there's definitely an NF53 or MK in my future.

Good to know. Haven't had to interact with them yet, but good to read all these positives. On a side note; wish Paul had aquired Mesa instead of Gibson. I believe the total synergies of such a combo would be off the hook. 2023 was my year for PRS. Hadn't had a new one in years. I love, love...

Anyone have this material composite in a Private Stock build? Got this material build-up on another guitar and really like it. Also, I read/hear anecdotes PRS will do stainless steel frets on Private Stock builds. Actually I don't believe it based on all I read and hear. And I'm not...

Thank you all. Forgot this thread. Did re-string it with 10 - 46. Of course had to adjust the spring tension, strobed it and fine tweaked the intonation & action, but all in all, not a big deal. Thank you all for the replies. My irratiional aversion to do something I've done all my life is...

Wouldn't ya know I'd see this just after snagging a new core DGT just days ago. Bitten by lack of patience once again. ;) Love my purple Iris Paul's Guitar. Would have loved to have a matching DGT. (I'm not as good a photographer as you).

I surely wish I could limit things to one or just a few amps. I blame it on the voices....errr, I mean tones in my head. ;)

Awesome stuff!! Beautiful guitars Lew. Here in the past couple of years, I've had to restrain myself. As much as I like to mod things. I envy your collection and your being able to live in CO. Of the four corners, Colorado is my favorite. NM (Cloudcroft) being my second (much to others...

Not a thing wrong with that. If you're old school....I'm ancient school. ;)

Yes thank you for that. Much appreciated. I believe I will lean toward your advice. In my old age I've been hanging on to most of my gear. The CU24 pictured has more put in to it than I will ever recover. Plus as silly as this sounds, I love the guitar mostly for the SS refret Phil Jacoby did to it.

Yeah I'm sure quite a few of us have been timed out there sometime ;).

There you are @Lewguitar. Always wondered where you went. Used to enjoy your posts on The Gear Page. Good to see you again.

Same here. Same as the Tylers, Andersons, Fender CS tele's and strats here at the house. My brand new core DGT and Pauls guitar no problem at all. +/- 20degF change always necessitates retuning whatever is in my hands at the moment. But once in tune stays that way for a good while.

My recent 2023 mfr'd core model acquisitions have me questioning if I should put my well used old friend in a 2007 EXP CU24 back to the way it was designed. Got it used back in 2009. Put a 5-way rotary PU select sw in it because that is how my last CU24's (long gone) came back in the early...

Thank you so much! I did order a three pack of 11-49's just in case. I do believe I will try a set of 10-46's though. Literally, I will not live long enough to use all the 10-46's sets I've hoarded. I've mulled over a DGT since they first came out. Just my opinion of course; I believe PRS is...

Absolutely stunning my friend!!! Love everything about it. You are a fortunate man.
