Take your time to chill Lola, but chin up always. My solution to stress has always been to go downstairs and hit the heavy bag, great therapy! Rumor has it you shouldn't take that kind of anger out on real humans, no matter how badly they need/deserve it. ;) Once the frustration was out, I could...

Recharge your batteries and start anew Lola! For me, I just had one of those sessions where everything sounded like crap. Didn't matter what I played I hated it. Been a long time since I had to put the axe down and walk away. I'm gonna blame SRV for it. One of his simplest songs tripped me up...

"I don't care what it says on the headstock." Neither do I really, just prefer the PRS signature on my electrics.;)

OMG, those contraptions have (more) knee surgery written all over them to me! Holy Gerald McBoing Boing Batman!!!🤪

We (generally speaking) used to call the double cut style of guitars that visually resembled the Fender models "superstrats". And there were many of them. The PRS headstock was more unique but lots of the copied versions had headstocks that were actually quite close to the Fender. But not close...

@tiboy RESPECT man! Never give in. @Lola If the wind ever quits blowing (it's a spring thing in these parts I reckon) I will make some loud noise of my own with my chain saw. Have a lot of trees to take down to clean up my property and make more landscape work. Words of wisdom: if you ever begin...

^^^This^^^^ Guitars are a highly emotional thing (I think I said that before somewhere...). Not unlike our individual tastes in cars, motorcycles, women (or guys not to be sexist)....something just rings that certain bell and then it all goes out the window and common sense is lost forever.😱 If...

The Thinline has the switch down on the lower bout, the double 594's and single cuts (all but the Thinlines) are all up on the upper just like the LP's do...if that is what you are referring to. @Jerrydpi I'm not sure where you're at, but my S2 Thinline I paid a paltry $300 more than a new SE...

Yep, S2 Thinline, and used if you can find one. Of course I have a small prejudice on the subject...;) Don't sell the S2 standard short either.

Thoughts and prayers man. This is so close to home for me.🙏

Having spent nearly 5 decades in the sales world (although not guitars/instruments), I have to concur with a lot of the replies on the specs uniqueness of any PS guitar. Anything that is personalized to any degree automatically narrows the prospects window almost down to a mere pinpoint. I have...

I wish I had a concrete answer for you. But my experience has been that no matter how stunning or attractive the pictures in ads or on your screen may be, until you see them in a store (or wherever) there is often a huge difference form what you originally perceived them to be. Seeing it for...

Did you try Amazon? Or you could also go direct to PRS for the real deal...

Completely agree on that. Especially given my experiences with Strats and LPs. I guess I'm just hopeful a SS will somehow unlock that coveted style I look and long for. And I know it's not any guitar that's lacking, it's just a personal flaw in the individual discovery process...;)

I love(d) Cheech and Chong. I don't know how many times I listened to their albums and then when the movies came along...well, just goes without saying.
