P.Lo, I too picked up the Gibson Lifeson Les Paul. I was thrilled at first, but I'm not fully happy with it overall for the price mark it was at. I mean, it's a nice guitar... but at it's price it could have been more. I'm looking forward to PRS doing the whole Alex Lifeson thing as well.

I have not registered my private stock's yet, I probably should. I'm surprised that they don't have an online method. When I register warranty on my Taylor's, I do it online on their website. It also adds me to the mailing list for their free magazine, which is really nice (and a good...

Anybody have any idea what the general street price will be on this thing? (my last PRS private stocks set me back... too much!)

Guitar Rez in Austin... Get one of these!

Well worth the price. You will be amazed by their picks.

On the topic of guitar picks... I don't use a pick at all when I play (acoustic and electric), though I do sort of collect them. If I were to use a pick, as far as sound goes I'd use my Red Bear picks. They're hard to find, but if you locate on on Ebay, expect to pay at least $25 each. I've...

Love that fretboard.

Ummm.... The stores receive their products via delivery trucks as well. As with anything else, I think it all really boils down to the individual delivery person. I happen to have a really good driver on my route and she's been delivering to me for years. I know her so well that if I see her...

Fantastic! Off topic though: Where does one find exotic wood backplates like this? I have found them from a place in maple, but I'm looking for cocobolo.

I agree. Not enough ACOUSTIC ACTIVITY here. My wife picked PRS acoustic for me... I have mostly Taylor's and Gibson's, but she took a real liking to the PRS. We dived in full throttle and did a Private Stock acoustic. No clips of me playing, but how about a photo of this guy playing my...

She was not exactly what I was seeking, but the final price (Black Friday discount included) was more than I could resist. Love the headstock. May add cocobolo pickup rings. Came as cocobolo fretboard, headstock, and tuner buttons. Awesome brown leather case. I was seeking one with piezo...

Because I bought it.

I just got to see this one at GuitarRez also the other day. I have gone with a different PRS, but this one would have been my second choice had I not found what I did. This Modern Eagle is fantastic. I noted that it had a lot of weight (I like) and the case for it is incredible (not...
