    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    To me, the DGT is a completely different sort of guitar from the Pauls, 408, and MEV. To me, it feels and sounds more vintage Gibson (which, IIRC, the pickups were based on a set of his 335 pickups, but I could be wrong about that.) I don't think there's any going wrong with the others. (Well...

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    I like it a lot. I think I realized that you have to treat it more like a Strat than a humbucking guitar. Once I started thinking about it that way and found the sweet spot with my amps, it made a huge difference. I was on the fence about the ME-V vs 408, too...and a deal on the ME-V dropped...

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    408? I have a PS Pauls Guitar (the green burst) and an ME-V (next to the Paul's, between it and the Custom 22 Semi-Hollow). Which did you want to see more of? I'd be happy to post pics!

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    Thanks! It's a custom build from Dan Lawrence's GMP guitars with the paint done by him. The Jackson PC1 Adrenalize next to it was part of a limited run he painted that I stumbled across at CMC. The art was the big thing (on the Destroyer-type shape)...but Dan found a great piece of swamp ash...

    Thoughts about how to raise my cab/head.

    I have a vertical cab, so it's a little different, but I do the same thing under my 1x12 combo (which isn't pictured) -- a milk crate. I find that it raises them enough to hear a bit better, it's solid, and I can reach the controls easier.

    It arrived. It's gorgeous. And I do not regret it one tiny bit. :) And she fits in with the rest of the family :)

    Unfortunately (or fortunately) that seems to be my usual choice. :)

    It's not gotten to me yet, but I'll definitely let you know once I get it! J

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    Well, I ended up making a trade today for this so I guess I won't worry too much about it. :)

    I can't imagine regretting getting the ME-V. Just trying to decide if it's different enough from the Paul's to merit getting. :)

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    True. I'm just pondering whether it's worth it to fork out $6k for a guitar that's almost the same as one I have and love. J

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    So, basically, what you're both saying is that I should have NOT purchased my Paul's Guitar and just waited for an ME-V? Oy. I think I've had it about a month now. :(

    Modern Eagle V vs Paul's Guitar

    Hiya all! I have an absolutely awesome Paul's Guitar that I picked up recently. I find myself really tempted by the limited ME-V run Brian's is doing. I've been looking for definitive answers, but coming up short -- is the ME-V basically a Paul's Guitar with an additional single coil and a...

    NGD: I'm a bit in awe...

    I've owned a bunch over the years, but nothing stuck...a couple of CE22s, a couple of Custom 22s, a Custom 24, several HBIIs... I finally ended up with a Custom 22 Semi Hollow Wood Library in a great buy a few months back that has my attention...and now this PS Paul's Guitar. I'll have to get a...
