Hello everyone,
I just joined the forum and wanted to say hi. Although I've been playing since I was 13 or 14 (I'm 62 now, gainfully retired), I only joined the PRS family very recently. In my younger days I was more or less a Gibson player, having owned a Yamaha SA-2000 at one time, and will forever regret selling it. I later switched to Strat style guitars and have a few USACG instruments - very fine ones, indeed. For some reason, PRS never seemed to fit my hands all that well, and something just didn't feel right. Granted my exposure had been limited to noodling in stores on instruments that may not have been set up well.
Anyway, long story short, I recently got a black S2 Mira semi-hollow, and it continues to blow me away every time I strap it on. A quick tweak of the truss rod and a minor adjustment of bridge was all it needed - plus a fresh set of 10s, of course! I can honestly say that this is easily the best guitar I've owned. I know its not a fancy core or wood library model, but not being much into fancy looks, I can't see how anything could be better!
Anyway, after a hiatus from playing for a few months for various reasons, the Mira has seduced me into playing again - that's the only word I can think of that fits!
I look forward to meeting you all.
