mine was a '02 black cherry 10 top McCarty bought from Rudy's in Manhattan while on holiday. Still have it, still play it but not s much now. Ian

I wondered how that was done - simple really :) So what happens to the rest of the 'off-cut'? matching key fob? , cuff-links? sounds like a new range of Private Stock matching fashion accessories :p Happy 4th July to all you guys and gals the other side of the pond Ian

The mods are: Phase II tuners, got them from UK ebay. Yes I had to take a drill to the headstock and the screw holes are in different positions. Bareknuckle Mississippi P90's and black pup rings. Tuner knobs and control knobs from Crazy Parts in Germany (both ebony and bird inlay on the...

..looks like I have work to do on those holes :) - What about LEDs? Thanks for the feedback. Cheers Ian

Didn't see this thread before starting another one...oops This is my ZM with a few mods Ian

Part 2 Next, the Head Stock: (this is where I totally destroyed any residual resale value of the guitar) A walnut veneer with a set of PRS Phase II tuners. Walnut veneer had several coats of Petrofin oil (I think that's what its called - Mesa Boogie used to use it for their hardwood cabinets)...

Not sure....but the pick-up works by the string vibrating through the pick-up's magnetic field not by vibrations induced from the body...I'm sure PRSh has an opinion on this. oops, didn't read the reply from andy474x. Ian

Sorry, my favourite again... A one piece top Next morning, packed and ready for the next venue... Ian (I took video of Paul and Simon McBride playing a couple of numbers, if I find out how to post I will in the morning)

Private Stocks......(UK's Private Stock Friday).....my favourite first....

I met PRSh last night at Stonehouse, Gloucestershire. I was like a kid before Christmas in the run up to the evening and then sat in the front row with the biggest grin on my face, I bet PRSh must have thought I was demented :laugh: I meet Stacey and John in the line for Paul, John had a...

Absolutely beautiful Ian

Two of my guitars have been on the care package that Headline (PRS Europe) offered. First year they got shipped back, but since then I've all taken to driving them to Cambridge. Always had an excellent service from Mat & Nick – both excellent guys. It would be good to have a PTC centre in...
