I’m not a big fan of the new buttons, but I really don’t care tbh. I buy the guitars, and if the buttons bother me to any extent I’ll just change them. On the other hand, I won’t buy a guitar without locking tuners, or a way I can change them to lockers without drilling into them. I love the...
Mine was an orangy-red 1989 ce24, which I played and toured with for two decades. I sold it to a friend of mine, (who still has it) when I bought a 2008 McCarty Ted..it was an amazing guitar. Since then, I have been addicted to PRS guitars, and have owned over 30 different ones. My wife thinks...
I favor the dark sunburst, autumn sky, earth tones..don’t know why, just do. That said, I’ve had several in blue, and shades of red, and also assorted solid colors. I don’t like, and have never owned clown bursts…clowns are a bit freaky to me…lol!
A quick story: very recently I had a guitar shipped to me in a PRS case. The box it was packed in was the worst I’ve ever seen a guitar shipped in..it was wet, had several punctures in, and the only thing holding it together was a crappy piece of tape. When I opened the box I was expecting...
Maple & Ebony just don’t work together..even Gibson figured figured that out..finally. two very dense/hard woods interacting at a high frequency wind up cancelling each other out, thereby killing sustain. ( that’s just the short version)
I have a 408 on the way…finally! I played a few, bought one off the internet..returned it, due to weight and misrepresentation. Some sellers have questionable ethics..that’s all I’ll say about that transaction. The one on the way is a 10 top, with a Brazilian fretboard, and is 7.8 lbs. When I...
What are the specs of the 59/09’s that everyone seems to be suggesting? It’s the only pickup set I haven’t had in any of my PRSes.. Specifically, how is the neck pickup? ( not trying to hijack your thread, and maybe the info would help us both out )
That frost blue is one of the five candidates I’m considering. I have a good relationship with one of the guys there, and he’s there tomorrow…he’ll be my first call in the morning! I’ve decided to offload all my non-PRS guitars,( except for 1 exceptional S, and one awesome T.) I‘m sure we’ll be...
I have been a PRS guy since 1989. I acquired a ce-24, in a trade and I was amazed at the quality. I had to really search for more, ( no internet to speak of back then) and a year later found a gorgeous Custom 24 10 top, with birds… since then a dealer in my area started carrying them, and I’ve...
Sweet looking guitar…from your pics and your description of the neck, i think it’s right up my alley. I had a Japanese Kotzen too. It was also stupid heavy, and the reason why I moved it. I loved the concept, but the execution was awful. I haven’t had the opportunity to play an NF-53, but I know...
Thank you all! My member name was from my first 408, (the one I traded in along with a few others, for a 2008 McCarty Ted, with the Santana headstock) which I should never have done! It’s “the one that got away”. I was listening to a recording I made with that guitar about a month ago, and was...
