After months of drooling over several of these beauties...here's mine. I've seen a few others pop up at dealers in colors other than the awesome McCarty bursts (faded and glow versions)...I think this is the first one posted here...



 
Oops...almost forgot...she came with another little surprise, or two, in the case...



 
Fan Freakin' Tastic!!!

So nice! I love the color, too.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I do mine. I think they're the most amazing guitars PRS has ever made, but that's got a lot to do with my taste.

Awesome- I love the blue/natty back! Congrats, so what was the deal w/the pickups? Did they let you add them to the order? Are they coming stock on newer versions of the model? What's the dealio?!?
 
Congrats! That tight flame and blue top look great! Looking forward to hearing more about the PU's also. :top:

Whoa. That's stunning. I think I'm weirdly obsessed with blue guitars. I've never owned one and often tell myself not to buy on color, but that's beautiful.
 
Very nice! Is that finish Aquamarine Smoked Burst? Anyhow it looks amazing!

Thanks every one for the kind words (even Sergio...and for a blue guitar!). Les, every word of your gushing about these is true...what a fantastic sounding/playing instrument. Picture the "perfect in every way" LP in your head...and it's even way better than that.

The pick-ups are further evidence of PRS's (and their dealers, in this case guitar center) total commitment to customer service/satisfaction. They are "on loan" from another PS build I have in the works. These and the 85/15's are now available for order with PS builds (I've seen at least one other guitar on here with them). I have no info on which, if any, non-PS models they will be available for. I have heard...third hand rumor...that the 58/15's will be the "standard" PU for the PS McSC next year. I'll find a "worthy victim" for the transplant and try to report back.

Re the color questions...it is Sapphire smoked burst (Oddly enough...I have one in aquamarine smoked burst on order). The one in my avatar ("Yenita") is aqua violet glow smoked burst. I guess I like blue/purple.

Many thanks again to the PS team (especially Tina) and Bruce "the juice" at GC in Manchester CT.

So, gonna call it "Neptune"?
I was trying to think of a name (and I am a Roman/Greek mythology fan)..but I only use female names for guitars. So I'll call her Salacia (Nickname "Sally"). Thanks for the suggestion!!!
