Good idea. Thanks

I have an old Custom 24 that I love but I do not like the 5 way rotary knob. Pro's and cons of switching out to a switch? I understand I'll only have 3 positions, 1, 3 and 5 which is fine with me. Is that accurate? Any downside to doing this? thx

Thanks for your help. Regarding keeping guitar in case, I've just never in my 25 years of playing and 30 guitars later done that. All my guitars are out and look great except now the most expensive guitar I never dreamed of owning. I like looking at it, showing it off, but more...

I just flipped out when I saw yours. You can see mine here with my dog. Stunning, now looks like green polluted water in just over 3 years. I did contact, they were kind enough to offer to re-stain back to same condition, but I'll have to case the guitar. I have a 15 year old CU24 Whale...

I PROMISE you, my EXACT situation. Same Private Stock color on day of arrival, and now green as of march 2021 and not 4 years old, P Stock. Incredible. Zero offense but liked our old original blue better than your new paint job, hope not offended, still beautiful. Just a shame with...

glad your surgery was successful. I feel I’m headed that way but trying not to. Workin hard at PT and I wear my brace most of the day and at night. I feel confident 9’s will allow me to play with less pain, especially the chunky 594 neck. Best feel right now is my Suhr HSS with roasted...

It's amazing how Jimi, EVH, Jeff Beck plays 9's, Billy Gibbons can rock like they do with 8's and 9's. So cool. Again with me, I have bad arthritis and am aging so it's not an option if i want to keep playing. i'm goin to 9's, may end up on 8's. I just gotta keep playin to keep my...

The Beato and Shull shootout helped me alot. I'm Beato's age and let me tell ya, I'm feelin it gettin older. I'm trying to avoid surgery but the pain takes alot of the fun out playing. So my situation is a bit different. I'm goin to lighter strings to prolong my playing and hopefully avoid...

good to hear. thanks

I'm 60, played 10's forever, have developed pretty bad arthritis and causes pain in my thumb mainly with my playing. May have to have surgery if physical therapy doesn't work so starting this weekend, all 6 guitars going to 9-46. Kind of hate to do it but I'm an intermediate player and my...

Age creeping up and arthritis flaring up on my thumb/finger making it difficult to play without pain when I play. I've tried to loosen my grip, no luck. In physical therapy now, trying to avoid surgery which would be awful. Having said all that, while I know this sounds crazy, i need to...

Cool. Thank you very much. Enjoy

Geo you should play an Andy Wood Suhr. Radius = 16 and with roasted neck it’s a breeze. My arthritis getting worse and I have the least pain with 16 radius. Love my S Sky but that vintage radius gettin harder to play. Gettin old bites....... My custom 24 pattern thin feels great also. Great...

Wow. Personally would never re-radius a neck, especially a quality guitar such as a PRS. He must have really really wanted a S Sky to work. I love my Custom Shop Clapton Strat. Feels and sounds great. Sorry about your cramping but I totally understand which is why I’ll probably send my SS...

so are you primarily staying away from S Sky due to neck radius? My first this size and with arthritis mainly in my thumb it’s definitely different and causing some pain. My core are pattern thin and pattern, feel great. Love my 24 fret Andy Wood Suhr. Roasted neck like butter, so soft and...

mine is green Maple board. Great lookin guitar, 7 lbs. The pickups are very cool. Never in my 20 years of playing have I played a guitar where the 5 switch positions are so different sounding with no volume drop. I’ve been in position 1 or 5 on 95% of my playing through the years. These...

I have one S Coil my Clapton Strat which I love mainly the 9.5/neck but I’m a Humbucker guy also. Several PRS, my Les Paul and my Andy Wood Tele with Thornbuckers kills. I’m in grace period with this S Sky mainly due to radius. Used to pattern thin and pattern on Paul’s guitar. Still...

just curious, why did you get rid of it?

9 - 46 here. what is the action set up that’s giving you no buzz with 9’s ? Too high for me now with 9’s so your opinion appreciated. Also, did you have to adjust truss rod or saddles? I’d rather not, personally. Thanks
