Ugh.. in the midst of uploading pics and typing I see that Peter has posted already today... but I'm gonna go anyway.
Here's my KL33. If my '93 CE that I purchased new is like my right arm, then this surely has to be my left.
I haven't been able to put this guitar down for the two years I have had it (except once for a week during my "Just Maintain" thread period) and it's getting
worked ! This guitar is all about the tone. Like a Flying V or an Explorer with a wanger.
It's from the 2008 limited run of 100, all Korina, ebony knobbed wings, limited edition 1980 spec MannMade un-plated trem, no tone knob, kill switch, and a wonky set of pick up rings for the Lace Silver and Mira treble. It's (accidentally) wired for an out-of-phase middle position that cuts heads off when played with distortion. This is the guitar I use for lead playing and projects where I want to tone-down the PRS factor and roll undercover.
Yeah, it looks haggard. It's supposed to. I've always wanted a pre-factory guitar like Paul used to make himself but can't afford one or what it would cost to get one done by Private Stock, so I had to DIY one. Instead of my usual Bourgeois on a Budget routine I'm Slummin' with a Silver Spoon here. All wear is honest and real and not intentionally relic-ed.
Only one "action shot, a still taken from a fuzzy video. No idea how I got so fat and bald.
