My wife just inherited a large sum of money and thought of me first! As soon as she learned she was inheriting this money she asked “What is the one guitar that you would want if money was no object?” I jokingly said “a custom PRS guitar of some kind…one of a kind with every option picked by me.“ she asked how much that would cost and I said in the neighborhood of $15 grand. She said “Great, I just found out I am inheriting a large sum of money so you figure out what you want and we will order it as soon as I receive the money!” WOW! That was double good news…she was coming into a pot of money we were not expecting and she wanted to buy me a custom PRS! She should have the money in a month or so.
Now my dilemma…what model to pick and what options to chose…tough choice I know! lol
I am thinking along the lines of a Private Stock Modern Eagle V. I am interested in hearing what options others would recommend if I went with this guitar, and/or what other models others would choose.
I need another guitar like I need a whole in the head, in fact I have started giving my grandkids some of the guitars in my collection. But, this is a special situation and I am seriously considering taking her up on her offer. lol
My wife is one in a million; she has always been extremely supportive of everything related to my involvement in all things musical. She is the kind of wife who was always ready and willing to go to a guitar store (or the NAMM show) and spend a day looking at every guitar, musical instrument and piece of studio gear in the place…and enjoy it (not the typical guitar store zombie wife dragging herself behind the hubby complaining about being there). She voluntarily learned to be a really competent audio engineer so she could run front of house sound at gigs I played at and help out in my studio. She has never complained about anything in all the years we have been together! She is a real keeper! Now, with this offer…she just moved-up to goddess status! lol
