    Tele player looking to get first PRS

    I'd first ask what other guitars you have. What neck is on your tele, what tele is it? I'd suggest the DGT, but realize you are going from 9's to 11's and that's an adjustment. Of course you can put 10's on the DGT, and due to the way the DGT is made it'll feel more like 9's. But a DGT is very...

    594 GAS

    I almost got the DC. I was back and forth. Lots of video's said the SC had more ooomph and all my other PRS's are traditional PRS DC shape so I wanted something different. It is heavier though. That shop has some special sales coming up, stay tuned.

    An Awesome Modeler Would Be...

    I bought the fx3 when it went on sale....and now's there's a combo black friday sale of course. Lots to learn, decent unit, I'd still like to compare a Kemper to it but the reality is there's no returning the Axe once you get it, not in Canada. Import fees, shipping, it's not worth it. I'd just...

    594 GAS

    So now that the honeymoon phase is over I can say I still love this guitar. Again the larger neck is a non issue with my smaller hands. I always play this thing for hours and I can't figure it out why my hands don't hurt. My Strat has a large neck as well but it cramps my hands in 15 mins (60's...

    An Awesome Modeler Would Be...

    that is who/where I contacted a month ago... yes, we are selling the PROFILER Stage directly but when you will order it from us you have to pay duty and tax by importing the goods. Unfortunately it's not possible for us to tell you how much you have to pay as it's different from country to...

    An Awesome Modeler Would Be...

    Yeah I can get Kemper to send it directly from Germany, but they can't guarantee total duties at the door. I can get it from Long and Mquade Musical Store chain here in Canada, and not worry about duties, plus if it breaks I just bring it back to the store. If I buy it from Kemper Direct I'm not...

    An Awesome Modeler Would Be...

    I'll never sell it where I live. I'm also on an island which makes shipping $$$. It doesn't seem like I can even get a stage here in Canada yet with end of November being the earliest. I could have an AXE III within days though as they air ship. But Axe will be 3800 by itself CDN, and Stage...

    An Awesome Modeler Would Be...

    kemper, fractal, kemper, fractal...my head is going to explode trying to decide. The Stage seems to be having some major quality issues. The Fractal Axe is expensive no doubt but the new FM3 with a FC6 foot controller is on par with the Kemper stage....but it might be out until mid next year at...

    Nice. I remember trying to get a black gold dgt with a binding and not wrapped...I was told, nope, sorry, don't make em.This was years back. I eventually found a copper burst.

    I don't understand the grading system

    I have an Artist top, a 10, and a non 10. There is a difference between all 3. But not something I'm going to be able to capture e with a picture. The Artist has much more 3d effect and as you move it there's a lot of movement in it enough to mess with your head wondering how this is possible...

    Least Favourite finish?

    Anything pink. While I'd never buy a green one, I've seen some I do like. There's also the rainbow signature one ...can't remember the artist...ugly af. Not a fan of gold tops either, sorry. DGT gold top not so bad, but other brands, LP's, or a butterscotch tele...literally my least favorite...

    Anyone here use a Headrush?

    still ships from Germany, I reached out to them. Long and Mcquade are the only Canadian dist. and they don't expect to get any until late November. 42 of them, for the country. ...and we just got hit by Dorian in NL, Canada and now I have house damage....bye bye fun money,

    Anyone here use a Headrush?

    I had one for a week or so. Presets were all bad, but downloaded the artist packs and some other stuff and it was ok. I loved the board itself, so easy to use, hands free mode was excellent, the screen was so easy to see from a distance. It locked up on me a couple of times on newest firmware. I...

    594 GAS

    My 594 won't be replacing my LP either, but it does feel and sound special enough to justify keeping it for sure. I grab my LP now, and even though my LP has the slim neck, for some reason I keep wanting to go back to the 594. MAybe still the honeymoon phase but I agree with what u said about tone.
