Experience PRS 2020 Update

[Alnus Rubra]

He turned me into a newt.

Apparently you got better!

Sorry guys. My intention wasn't to ramp up an argument over the virus, I just wanted to point out how much I appreciate your ability to be respectful. So let's leave the medical opinions to the experts and go back to talking about fun things.

Thanks

Mmmm guitars, pretty guitars made of sexy wood, stained vintage yellow, with double cutaways and abalone lines inlayed into the top! Yum

Totally this. I’m much more entertained by y’all being wrong about guitars.

This too..

Is there any truth to the rumor PRS is announcing a host of new finish colors, lead off by the long awaited SergioBlue?

Yeah, all new guys think that at first. ​

Will never happen.

New? I’m old enough to be your brother!

I agree with this. The dentists I know have always worn masks and gloves for the past decade or so. There isn't much more you can do.

I thought you were saying the infectious disease specialists are talking about serious preventive measures because they're panicked; indeed, the docs I know are upset that we're short of beds and equipment (I have quite a few close friends in the medical field). I hope that will be rectified, though everyone realizes that it will take some time to make more ventilators and other specialty equipment.

Hospitals in my area are actually saying the might have to utilize outdoor tents, like in the 1919 Spanish Flu, 100 years later. Kinda makes me scratch my head.

We're all good Les. Happy to discuss elsewhere if you wish. As I said earlier...I'm double bummed about PRS cancelling. My Vault trip was going to be April 2nd.

Thanks for letting us know. I hope everyone finds another way to make some memories this May. And, remember that if you are feeling blue JFB is here for you.

On a more fun note. I had just sent Shawn the forum shirt design for approval this morning before the news went live. I like to make sure we have the appropriate blessing and we aren't at risk of interfering with the staff shirts. Perhaps we can still do the shirt and once everyone has theirs we can build a group photo from individual submissions. It would be like the Signature Club photo we take at the beginning of the event.

I have shipped the shirts before and am happy to provide this service again if it's something the forum family thinks would be fun. I would still want to get approval to do this, but I don't expect any issues given the circumstances. It's about time we did something fun as a group!

I'd be in for one of these no problem. As Alnus ( Rueben) points out if pay pal is good I'm definitely up for this. Stay healthy Brothers and Sisters I'm gutted for you all. Al.

We would all like to be at the "Experience." No sense lamenting what if's or coulda-shoulda's.

Just think: What new guitar stock there was to be at the Experience will likely be bought up by dealers who will offer them from their own sites. That doesn't mean the guitars won't be available. It just means retailers will act as the co-betweens before you can purchase production models, as they alway have if you did not order a custom-built directly from a retailer.

I said new, not young.

Excuse me - don't try to start an argument in here while we're having a perfectly good argument. You want abuse - that's two threads down.

Dude...I've been constructing my Private Stock either in my head, on paper, or directly with my dealer(Thanks Brian!) for probably 7-8 years. You'll have to allow me a little lamenting when my trip to the Vault gets cancelled 3 weeks before the date.

I'll be ok. There will be another day scheduled once things calm down. And yes, We'll be able (I'm sure) to purchase Experience exclusive instruments from our dealers at the appropriate time.

 

[mookyshoots]

Love the idea for a shirt. Put me down for one if they're open to all.

Also, I haven't been on here a long time but wanted to say how great this group is. It's nice to see all of the normal forum bullsh*t left at the door and that folks here genuinely like each and respect other.

‘sergio blue’ is same color as ‘popleptic white’.

and the universe will say:

‘sweet top’

I'm jealous without even being there. I put on ten pounds over the winter.

Never mind that I'm drowning my sorrows in some amazingly delicious home-made cinnamon coffee cake at the moment...

mmmmmmm! Cinnamon coffee cake. GOOD!

It's not you, it's us grumpy buggers! We're uber supportive of you guys doing the right thing that you HAVE to do, but that doesn't mean we have to like it.

This is what happens when a bunch of spoiled brats try to act more mature than we really are. Kinda like my kids doing their best NOT to run downstairs on Christmas Morning w/o us.
