It’s new and a more traditional amber burst kind of color. I may see if he’d extend that offer to a new order so I can get that charcoal blue burst. But I do like the more traditional colors as well. The one I like has the 85/15 pups and they sound amazing. There wasn’t anything I wanted that I couldn’t get, including a nice single coil sound.
That’s a nice guitar but that paint scheme isn’t really my cup of tea. It’s fun to look at but I wouldn’t want to ALWAYS look at it.
yes the 85/15's are extremely good as well, if you like those absolutely recommended sweet tones, go for it, I probably logged 10 hours on those pickups, very enjoyable.
So you do have your eye on a very specific guitar, at a decent price. good.
sounds like the only thing left is the color, the color truly inspires me to pick up the guitar, I've had some dark colored ones, that just fade into the shadows and they sit there for weeks without being picked up, the bright colorful ones get picked up and examined and then played. That's the beauty of PRS they seem to appreciate that concept, look and color are meaningful to at least 70% of the players. the sheer attractiveness of the guitar, makes you pick it up, then the sweet tones come pouring out.
It sounds to me like you deserve a blue one, I would consider a few extra days and a few extra dollars get it spot on perfect.
that's the one color I have yet to get and I have a strong desire to get it, Green has been my number one, I think I've had about 10 green guitars.
but playing the blues on a blue guitar, just always seems epic to me. note to self, must get a blue guitar!
