Hate to see her go, but I love to watch her leave.

Best. Santana. Ever.

That’s one of the most beautiful guitars I’ve seen!

This would be the clear winner if only it had more toggles...

Mini-Toggle Envy...the struggle is real.

What about mini-toggle compensation ?!

I think Tosca has my vote on this. Now if you had a matching cocobolo Boogie to go with it (and several strong roadies to carry it).....

There’s really only one amp appropriate for this guitar...it’s a Boogie...but snakeskin, not Cocobolo.

Does Boogie make cocobolo cabinets? I’ve always wanted one of those wood & wicker ones

I haven’t noticed it. I have walnut and bubinga cabinets from them.

I have a `96 Santana 1, a Santana Brazilian Ltd and a Westy. The one I like the least is the Westy. The S1 is my favourite.

Impressive pile of guitars!

Out of the ones I own, just purely based on tone, I’d rank it West Street with 57/08+59/09, KL33, Santana, and then West Street w WSL pickups.

The WSL pickups (un-potted HFS and RP) are HOT as all hell, and require lowering quite a bit IMO.

I think if I had a big influx in cash, I’d find me a Westy

That would be a wise choice

I know this won't be popular but of all the PRS Santana's I've owned my favorite is my Santana MD.
