Man that's is sweet. Wow that's drool city. Cleans on the 594 are fantastic, overdrive is personally the best I've ever heard. Dang it man that's beautiful..Congrats!
Did not buy it yet...
Did you correct that 'yet' yet?
It would look even better on your couch.
Yes i did, well who knows maybe in a few months....
In the meantime this one is on my couch: (ME II Charcoal)
Princeton is making me realize I need a PRS with a trem again.
I just got this one. I A/B'd it with a SC594. There might have been a bit of difference in tone (certainly in the heft), but any small difference, for me, was more than made up for by the ergonomics of the double cut form-factor. I spend a lot of time in the 12th-15th fret real estate, and having unobstructed access was the tipping point. Plus...just look at her. How could I say no to that face.
It's incredible how many things Mr. Smith and company got right with this one.
It really should be a Santana!

It will be a SAS with the blade switch. It will go to the PTC. It will be amazing. It will be quite some time until I can swing it, though.
I'm for sure upgrading the cheap 15 cent plastic backplates. Both of mine were scratched from the factory and even if they weren't they just scream cheap on a nearly $5k guitar.
What are your thoughts on any of these?
Similarly, I've been contemplating a custom truss rod cover and perhaps some rosewood plates (assuming I can find some that are a nice compliment to my RW neck). Nothing too flashy or intricate though, I think keeping it simple will nail the look I'm after. Priority one is completing my current amp & effects quest, and then I'll worry about minor cosmetic tinkering later.

There are folks who can't deal with the control and trem cavity covers, and folks for whom it's a non-issue. For me, even on my PS guitars, it's not something I think about. The black covers work, and are what they are.
If I were to replace a set, I'd get something without much grain, like ebony, so that they wouldn't clash with the guitar's wood, but of course it'd look just like the stock covers, so there wouldn't be much point.
I guess I don't see non-matching wood cavity covers as an improvement in the look of the guitar. If they matched the back, as on some PS guitars, it's a nice look (though as I said, not something that moves me either way).
