    Not PRS related - but a good lesson in buying a new guitar

    Will do. There may be a photo with a non-understanding wife in the background ;) She has asked how I can possibly need another guitar, surely I can only play 1 at a time. I asked how many pairs of shoes can she wear at once - case closed!!

    Not PRS related - but a good lesson in buying a new guitar

    Some great points raised there. To be honest I just used Core as an example, what I was trying to say is that it isn't one of the top dollar models. Personally, I couldn't afford anything like that but when I picked the SE up and played it I thought it was great in every aspect - so there was no...

    Not PRS related - but a good lesson in buying a new guitar

    I've just purchased my first PRS in a similar fashion. I'm predominantly a Tele man and also own a Lucille for the blues. Earlier this week I was wandering about in a guitar shop in Leeds and thought I'd try a couple of axes that I wasn't familiar with; a Gibson LP and a PRS SE Custom 24. Like...

    Yep, I agree with you. I have a Chris Schifflet Tele in white. I just don't think the maple natural suits it. Only my opinion though, colours are subjective. One mans rubbish is another mans great. I ordered the spalted maple vintage finish in the end.

    Not PRS related - but a good lesson in buying a new guitar

    This story is a few years old now but in my opinion one worth telling. Back in 2012, I had a Yamaha acoustic guitar, I can't remember the model (are they APX or something?). It wasn't the greatest but it did what I needed at the time. I walked into the local guitar shop simply to buy some new...

    You have actually made this decision even harder now haha - I had already looked at the Zebrawood and thought it looked very nice, but now looking at the Laurel Burl I literally have no idea - far too many choices!! I am probably way over thinking things (which is something I always do) but...

    Yeah it really does look nice. I think I'll have to drive to Manchester and take a look. The guitar itself was fantastic. I tried the PRS and a Gibson LP. For me, the PRS was far better to get on with.

    Spalted Maple

    Hi guys I'm new to the forum and was wondering if I could pick your brains with regard to colours. Up until today I've primarily been a Tele man. I went into my local guitar shop and tried an SE Custom 24. I was very impressed with everything about it, the guitar immediately just felt right...
