    Do you gig with 9 gauge strings?

    It’s the thought that counts. :cool:

    For Those Who Write Original Music...

    My first stop after wiping down my guitar was to stop at the table with the scariest guys in the bar. Thanked them for being there, asked about the volume and asked if the service was good. Invariably, there were compliments, high fives, and drinks thrown our way. Next, the table with the...

    For Those Who Write Original Music...

    Boy, so many tangents in one thread!! Chain response ENGAGE!!! It’s no secret that my last project, Peyote ‘Burger, was an instrumental trio with decades of material composed by the bassist and drummer. They tried to add guitarists in the past but they just didn’t gel. When I first started, I...

    And she knows what she’s talking about. High praise. My praise is worth squat, but even my untrained eye knows ‘amazing’ when it sees it.

    For Those Who Write Original Music...

    I like to think we raised our kids to be better musicians (and people). Even though Mrs. B has difficulty with maintaining vocal key consistency, she steeped the boys i her wonderful combo of 70s obscure, 60 folk, 80s, 90s, and beyond…even disco! They’ll be listening to Mozart, Little Willie...

    He was heavy back then. Now, he can carry me.

    Guitar display/stand or in case?

    My 335 and a FrankenStrat suffered small neck back dings due to toddler attacks. But the dividends paid from an early exposure yielded 2 sons that are amazing musicians. Both have worked in the industry, too. Every nick, ding, scratch, and scar carry stories of fun, love, excitement, and...

    Brand new 10 Top. No mater what I do it feels unplayable - is it me or did the factory rush it out?

    He lost track of them all years ago. The spoils of aging memory, but is convenient for conversations with the wife. ;)

    SE 245

    SE and S2 models don’t have the luxury of a MODCAT. Since special runs are readily identified (fancy top laminate), all SE245s were created equally. If you know the mfg year, use the Wayback Machine to look at the PRS website for specs at the time.

    S2 Vela ergonomics question

    The Vela is about as comfortable as they come. And a SH version is so light it defies logic. And not neck-heavy. Don’t hesitate…go try one or take the plunge!

    What Are Your Favorite Amps To Play?

    The Kemper has seen the most use over past several years, where I focus on Marshall-based profiles from MBritt. But THE amp of amps for me is the PRS Super Dallas. Yes, I still have the MkIII and a couple others, but the SuperD saw several years of gigging. It is resilient, consistent, well...

    Difference in tone between a PRS with a wraparound tailpiece compared to the same guitar with a trem..

    If we pick on the DGT, the ‘T’ stands for trem, aka, the tone pocket. The guitar is not the same with a stoptail. Not bad different, just not the OG DGT. Love me my stoptails, but the PRS trem adds something that is conspicuously missing without it. Totally subjective, obviously.
