Yeah... except none of my old instruments have gained weight... so... yeah

If you polish them too hard then I expect some weight relief can be expected.

I stopped trying to play songs when testing gear. I just try to look intense while making noise hoping they think it is deliberate. As if I’m trying certain sound scapes to test out the thing I might buy.

I can't stop laughing at this. Been there very recently. I find wearing shades helps, they worry they may have someone famous and so this must be a new kind of improv jazz they can't risk dissing

Oh I don't much think guitar store people care as long as you're not playing one of the "five songs you don't play in Guitar Center". Do a youtube search on that one, but it's basically Crazy Train (intro riff), Smoke on the Water, Sweet Home Alabama, Sweet Child of Mine (intro), and of course "Stairway" (think Wayne's World too).

That's all I ever do ................ even when I'm not guitar shopping.

Voivod riffs work great for this, since they're super weird and nobody recognizes them...

Ironically (I really do think) I just turned 50 and just bought my first and last PRS

Don’t let @bodia hear you say that, you will become his personal challenge to make it two-three-four.....

You see where this is going!

I'd buy 2 or 3 more, I just don't have the cash in the bank anymore. I have 2 expensive hobbies, fast cars and hot guitars, and a wife who doesn't care for either. A 277 would certainly make things interesting though.

I love watching the young and naive!

When I bought my first PRS, I knew I was done. Wouldn't need another one, ever.

Yeah.

The solution is painfully obvious; sell a fast car, buy more PRS. You only need one car. Insurance and upkeep is much cheaper too. You'll be saving money in the long run. That should make the wife happy.
