    Mystery Archtop

    Thanks guys. Wow. Fast response. And I also got one from PRS already. Dayum. They work on Monday? Who knew :top: From PRS it is: Thank you for writing PRS Guitars. This appears to be an Archtop II, quilted maple 10 top and back, mahogany sides, mahogany neck with a wide/fat carve, East...

    Mystery Archtop

    Thanks rugerpc. I didn't want to take advantage of people but I am certainly happy to if they don't mind. :biggrin: Here are some photos. I hope I don't have to remove the pup to see the modcat cause I am not exactly "handy".

    Mystery Archtop

    Hi all, Is there a PRS service where I can ID a guitar based on description and serial number? I'd really like to know exactly what I have. Thanks Jim

    Anybody else get the flu this year AFTER getting a flu shot?

    Shot here. No flu. Same as the last 9 years. And of course it is never 100% fool proof in any event. But, neither are fire extinguishers.

    I don't know exactly what this is?

    Well, the potential buyer is comparing mine with hollowbody IIs. And the price isn't the same and we are pretty far apart. So I'm keeping it. I think I'll give this another go to see if I like it. I've hardly ever played it. I am curious. I don't see archtops listed on the PRS web page...

    I don't know exactly what this is?

    Thanks for the help guys. Archtop II 10 top it is. If I remember right I paid around $3000 for it used so sounds right to me too. Guy who was interested in a hollow body was looking to spend less so I guess I'll keep it. I really need to try playing this more than I have. I never gave it a...

    I don't know exactly what this is?

    Like a dolt I haven't looked inside the cavities and until just now didn't even check the back of the headstock. It is a 10 top. I have to run but I'll try and find the modcat after the gym. Thanks

    Sweden freaking rules!!!

    I just finished watching the Girl with the Dragon tattoo trilogy (original Swedish version). Awesome set. Loved it and loved the backdrop. I also had a Swedish trainer in Thailand. Guy was a powerlifter and I think benched VWs for fun. Best part was I never got injured working out with him...

    I don't know exactly what this is?

    To be honest I just never took to the shape and depth of it. I prefer the solid body PRS.

    I don't know exactly what this is?

    Thanks. The only thing like it I can find are really hollowbodys not archtop. I did find one on Ebay but it was a plain jane spruce top. I can't recall what I paid (it was used when I got it) and just don't want to make a mistake.

    I don't know exactly what this is?

    Hi all, I have several PRS and am thinning the herd. I have a local guy interested in one of mine and I'm embarrassed to admit I don't even know exactly what it is. I certainly haven't a clue as to the value. I'm not trying to gouge him or get taken. Any hints are appreciated. BTW, there...

    Let's talk about Scotch, man!

    Irish whisky is great. Bourbon is great. Ryes are fine too. But I admit, IMO the scots perfected whisky. Scotch is a class above. To my taste the Irish stuff is as good but to compare apples to apples you have to spend about twice as much to get quality single malt Irish as quality Scotch...

    The NFL and CTE

    I feel there is a thing called "informed consent". If you make a living bashing into things with your head, even in a helmet, you should be aware that perhaps there will be consequences from that. It's like boxers. They get whacked in the head and after a while they have problems. I agree...
