Like that AX! - My next guitar will have P90's front and back
This aspect has drawn me to a couple of guitars. The Mira was my first versatile axe, and the P22 is fantastic with the piezo mix. Would love to try a hum/P90 combo.I dig this pickup combo! I still think these are pretty much a" Tonal Swiss Army Knife" with the coil split especially, I am always surprised at the noise I can squeeze out of it.
Highly recommended. Having two guitars similar to this config (ye olde Les Paul and the Vela, with the Type D not completely unlike a P90), I highly enjoy having a big difference between pickups.This aspect has drawn me to a couple of guitars.

I guess first and foremost...I'm a tiny little budget for my G.A.S. So for me being so limited I have tried to choose wisely when it comes to versitility and feel. I loved the versitility of the CU 24 I started with but I just never loved the neck and/or the scale. The CR, which is based off of the SC245 is killer for me...the W/F neck and the shorter scale makes it feel on point. Add the 57/08"s" and the P90 and BAM! We have a WINNER! I only wish it wasn't such a fat@$$! Well I don't call it "The Fat Kid" for nothin...just like its namesake it's of the "full figured" veriety!
You really should check out a Vela. There’s also a strong used market making deals on this great guitar possible.I guess first and foremost...I'm a tiny little budget for my G.A.S.

Cool Thanks Boogie! I have honestly never looked at the Velas that much. But...after watching them go for less than a grand in "near mint or excellent" condition.
I have a buddy that got one a few years back, and he has been a LP guy and for as long as I've known him. With a bad back his #1 LP was a monster tone wise, but it was unbelievably heavy. He was to the point of not gigging anymore. The Vela was his first PRS, but he's added several more since then. He still swears by the Vela. From what I've seen they have to be one of the best all-around values out there.
Greeeat...now I have yet another model to lust over...man you are good @Boogie ! I didn't feel that. Talk about enabling my GAS. Geez!
Could be worse - he could have pointed you towards a reclaimed wood Vela...![]()
