Lol.
Yeah, mine are moved to their cases for the moment (until I sort out the humidity issues in my house)... It sucks having to go all the way to the case, open the case, remove from case, etc. Its hard work but somebodys got to do it.
I think my favorite is a tie between my 408 Brazilian and my Cu24 30th Anniversary. Every now and then my DC3 or McCarty Korina or my SAS NF will slip in and usurp those two. Through my PRS journey, I've discovered a love for raw wood necks so my favorites reflect that. My 'trapped on a desert island with only room for one guitar' guitar would be either the 408 or the SAS NF because I can get multiple distinct sounds from each of those.
On a side note, I'm proud of myself. I stumbled upon an uber lightweight 509 at a guitar shop this past weekend. I played it for a bit; it did sound strattier than my old 513 and it had that typical PRS glorious playability (which was shocking in comparison with the late model Firebird that I had just put down prior to picking up the 509). I then tried to figure out what I could move to bring it home with me. Nothing. I couldnt move anything. So I handed it back to the salesperson. And walked away with only some NYXLs and F-one oil. My checking account thanked me....
I'm right there with you on the 408 love (Indian, though, not Brazilian). Bonus that it was finished on my birthday. It's in my top 4 for sure. And the raw wood feel - fell in love w/that w/my BRW 513. That was something of a revelation to me. The feel of a crackwood neck is just glorious.
And most of mine are cased, too (or in gig bags). I do have a handful on a rack so they're available for quick action. I'd love to have a dedicated room where I could put them on hangers or another rack, but that's not happening any time in the immediate future. Problem is, I'm not sure how much of a not-immediate future is left!
