    The DC22 Story

    Sadly, between the time I paid for it and the time it showed up, my dog, Ginny the Wirehair Dachshund, ruptured a disc in her back, requiring emergency surgery. The bill so far is $5600 and another $3500 in therapy lies ahead... So, I've put it up for sale, sad to say. Thanks, Bob

    The DC22 Story

    The second round was very nice, but those first 25 guitars were amazing. I think the combination of everything - wood and finish - made it that way. I owned number six, but sold it to fund a Dirty 100. I have always regretted doing that. That one lives in Australia now. On a positive note, #22...

    A Technical Issue I Could Use Some Help With - Replacing Tuner Buttons

    First, I hope you know that the Faux Bone tuner buttons for Phase III are the same size as the metal ones. I put them on a couple of my guitars and while they are an improvement, they still look abnormally large. As far as removing the ones that are on there, once the screws are out, they should...

    Static Cling Pick Guards On PRS V12??

    I know that I put one on a Nitro PRS Sunburst 22 and it bubbled the finish. Not terribly pretty. Fortunately, I found a repair person who was able to rub it out and it looked a lot better. I'd love to see what PRS says about it. I've got a lot of this material and would like to put one on! Bob

    Two Pattern Necks, Two Very Different Necks

    The person I bought it from and I thought we were getting a Pattern Neck, due to the hang tag, but it's a Pattern Thin neck. The MODCAT seems to verify that it's a pattern thin with the first T in the second set of letters/numbers. Here's the MODCAT: 48M2F_HTNST_LL_NB_B4 I am giving playing...

    John, it's measured in inches, not mm. Thanks, Bob

    Two Pattern Necks, Two Very Different Necks

    That's what I suspected, Shawn. These ARE available with a regular Pattern neck, though, aren't they? Thanks, Bob

    Two Pattern Necks, Two Very Different Necks

    I have a new 2013 Hollowbody II that I love. The neck is a Pattern Neck, as stated on the tag. I just got a used 2013 408MT. The neck is a Pattern Neck, as stated on the tag. However, it feels quite a bit thinner. I am not 100% sure how to quote the Micrometer as a decimal, but am attaching...

    NGD: 2013 Hollowbody II

    Well, I sold my Dirty 100 to a very nice fellow in Sweden and bought the very Hollowbody II that made me want to give it up. It's a 2013 in Santana Yellow. Not a 10 top, but I just about always prefer the non-10 tops - they are more interesting to me. Plays and sounds amazing! I am a happy...
