Happy Birthday, Miss Amber ...

[Kiwi]

Twenty years ago, on Labor Day Weekend 2000, you came into my life.

GC was having a Labor Day sale-a-bration. The temperature in Dallas was 110 on the weekend, then 112 on Labor Day. I cracked up under the strain and, with my hands shaking at the cost, pushed my credit card across the counter.

1999 PRS Hollowbody II, double 10-top, in violin amber - and still my desert island guitar.
Ah luv yew, Amber.

The apparent mismatch of the bookmatched top is completely dependent on the angle you see it from. From other angles, the mismatch reverses, and the vertical ribbon disappears.

Wood - who knows?

Thanks, all. I figure you'd "get it."

I've written 40 to 50 songs on it. Rhythm, lead, pick, and fingerstyle.

It just totally works for me and my kind of music.
