So a bit like being pregnant with the need to play electric guitar again and carrying that need full term and going into labor, in the past 9 months I’ve acquired my first PRS, an SE, then a 2nd, then a 3rd. 3 SE’s. Could they have instead been towards a Core, CE, or at least an S2? Well yeah. Hopefully no one thinks I’ve been unamerican by not choosing that. But I cannot immediately go from 10 gauge strings to flat 11’s then to 9’s or 9.5’s with just one guitar of higher value. With an immediate and initial step up beyond SE I would not have access to Wide Fat and Wide Thin necks, single coil taps, hollow and semihollow, stoptail and tremolo simultaneously. I feel that for now I’ve made the right choice by tripling up on my ‘Edition’. I am, afterall, a Student. I have potential and I believe in ‘String Theory’. I’m even, with the help of being able to acquire these guitars, putting some level of importance again on playing them and accumulating chunks of decent noise. Probably even gonna do some jamming with the fam and a friend again like the old days.
Having been reset to zero guitars for a while by life events, I did acquire a Taylor acoustic, then a Breedlove Nylon. Beyond that though I did not start regaining old abilities and growing them until getting electric guitars again. My PRS SE’s are getting the most playing time. I have nothing but thankfulness for being able to access these. Thank you Paul and everyone worldwide who builds guitars with him. Enjoy your fruitful guitar empire that you have built, because it is also fruitful from my end. I have hopes for a come up in life, and perhaps in the future I will have grown in my value as a guitarist, gained more money, and made a further purchase. If I simply never have increased amounts of money I will still value growing as a person and even as a musician, and I already plan to take good care of these instruments for what remains of my lifetime because I love them.
Well I have no idea if Paul’s last name Smith is the Irish version or the Scottish or English version. Happy St. Patrick’s day either way. In addition to it being Yoko Ono’s birthday, LoL, February 18th is the birthday of someone who’s been very dear to me for 21+ years. Come to find out, today on St. Patrick’s day, that February 18th is also Paul Reed Smith’s birthday. I tend to like these little synchronicities in life like some things are meant to be since the original ‘design’ put focus on it’s intentions. Sometimes people have ‘a type’, in various subjects in life. As I see it, there are good reasons beyond them being pretty trophies that so many in the world are loving PRS guitars. It’s a great thing that upwards is the only direction for me to go in and I’m already very happy with what I’ve got to noodle on here. I have appreciation for the contribution and I’ll try to be worthy on whatever rung of the ladder I ever find myself on. Thank you. Pass it on.
