Edit: 594 NGD has arrived. Awesome unexpected color

[pauloqs]

My PS plans were foiled. Between Dave’s soapbar 594 post, Les’s explanation on maple vs mahogany necks, and this thing being blue, I caved in and will soon become part of the 594 club. It’s listed as slate blue, but I’ve never seen a slate blue this blue before. It has a maple SATIN neck and clear back. It’ll also be my fist 10 top. I can’t wait for it to get here. According to the seller it weighs 7lbs 8oz, which seems super light for a DC 594.

GORGEOUS, MAN.

That...is beautiful! Congrats!!



Sweet top!

 

[dmatthews]

Fantastic!

 

[sergiodeblanc]

Congrats.

 

[dmatthews]

I am more than happy to be part of your problem

 

[Rockmark]

Very pretty guitar. Great weight too.

You're on a roll!!!! That is a hot 594. Satin in maple neck, or whatever mojo they use on it is fantastic. It's not really a satin finish, but it feels like it. Won't get shiny after time. Something UV baked, if I remember correctly?

 

[pauloqs]

^ If it's anything like the finish on those new CE24's, I'm in for a real treat!

 

[shimmilou]

Beautiful! Congrats

 

[WA Paul]

Congrats! That’s what, 5 NGDs in the past month? Nice roll you are on!

Pattern vintage neck carve is sublime

 

[dmatthews]

Satin neck should be glorious

 

[pauloqs]

Yeah, when I first joined the forum, I had 1 PRS. Now I have more than 1. The consequence was that my non-PRS collection took a huge hit.

Edit: Also the Pattern Vintage neck is a big reason why I've been wanting a 594. I haven't tried one yet, but I really enjoy asymmetrical carves and currently my favorite among PRS is the Pattern, which has me believe that I'll enjoy the Pattern Vintage even more.

You fit right in!

 

[Shaw]

Oh man... that is pretty!

 

[pauloqs]

Here’s the back of the guitar

 

[flux]

That's a keeper, wow. Congrats!

I bet that plays like a dream with satin goodness.

 

[veinbuster]

It looks great. All those other guitars in the reflections must be staring because they’re jealous.

 

[Alnus Rubra]

She’s a beauty! Well done.

 

[Guitpicky]

I'm pretty sure I like it, but there's just way too much going on in that pic with the rug pattern and reflections in the guitar top to be sure.

I'm going to humbly request a bunch of better pics for proper evaluation
