Tease!


and I love it!

 

[DISTORT6]

Crossed my fingers to help out.

After that one I may try to block access to all dealer sites and remove my Reverb watch lists... I really don't need more temptation at this point
The problem then is the PS Friday thread, I can't really unsubscribe from that one.

Box is secured, now the waiting game starts to let it acclimate.

Got to live dangerously, I'll take my chances:

Here's a good hint at what's to come. Though I don't want to jinx it too much because it's not clear yet if I'll like the feel of the guitar (neck, balance mostly):

Looking forward to the reveal!

Box is secured, now the waiting game starts to let it acclimate.

Since you posted this at @3:30, the requisite 8 hr. wait would put the reveal at around 11:30 PM.

I, for one, will be expecting pics when I sign back on at 11:45 to check!

 

[docteurseb]

It'll be unboxed sooner than that. The temperature differential is only 15F or so.

 

[El Fenix]

Welp, we're waiting

 

[Tony M.]

I'm not waiting.
I'll go cook dinner and come back later on.

 

[Davey]

The anticipation is killing me, I hope it'll last....

 

[docteurseb]

The case is right behind me. I just thought about opening it but I might give it another hour after seeing your comments.

 

[Davey]

Love it
All kidding aside, I know its gotta be a good one!

 

[Boogie]

And I thought my gig volume caused birth defects...

Seriously I was busy making a backplate for my orange tiger Paul's Guitar.
Just opened the case, is that enough of a tease ?

 

[Davey]

Congrats doc.
That is one gorgeous aqua violet. The way it flips. Loving the velvety brown in the case too.
I think I like this one better than the orange tiger, but I'd be ecstatic with either.
Just Awesome!
Need to see more, more, more!

Thanks !

I saw this aqua violet one pop up recently, and many of the specs I had wanted for a long time, so here were are.

I'll post pictures shortly, the top may look good but the back and neck aren't bad either
My mind is blown by the finish/color. That sadly rarely happens anymore, the last time it did was couple years ago when I got a CU24 in Northern Lights finish.
I couldn't tell from the PSF thread and dealer pictures whether the top had that much chatoyance, so very happy it does.

Many would prefer that over the orange tiger PG but the PG is fantastic playing, sounding, and an infinitely wiser purchase and better value (or rather nearly 4x better value..). It's here to stay too, at least until I eventually get a MEV again.
