Honest playwear. That is all.
Nice! I am currently accepting links. Shoes were a "no go". Too many bad reviews of no products ever shipped, etc.I have the perfect set of chrome tuner buttons for you, naturally aged.
If you got a Santana... I’d have to be extra careful.

Yeah, it's a slippery slope though!I spent time on a few other forums this morning. Came across some very interesting and cool guitars that were non-PRS. This led me to my following chain of thought :
if I were an ice cream maker and in my heart believe the chocolate was the best flavor and crafted perfect chocolate ice cream but the market was crying for a rocky road I might ponder what I should do.
Continue to make what I believe is the best and only that. Or should I try to expand my market share and give the customers what they are asking for. In doing so try to make the best rocky road the market has ever seen.
The analogy is based on road worn relicted guitars. There is a huge market out there for them based on what I see from other manufacturers and also from what I see and read in the forums.
over and over I see a younger demographic of player embracing beat up vintage guitars or relicted New guitars as they turn their nose up to guitars that are too pretty.
why not give the market what they want? Why not try something new? Why not do a limited run?
yes I know the relic thing gets bashed to death on most forums but who wouldn’t want a limited run Casper!!!!
Remember when Breyer's ice cream had their ingredients printed on the front? Cream, milk, sugar, cocoa. Now they also include: whey, carob bean gum, mono and diglycerides, carrageenan, salt, lactase enzyme, vitamin a palmitate, Tara gum, guar gum, natural flavor. They cheapened their product in order to compete with other brands on price.
If I’m a relic playing a PRS does that count?
As I am new to the PRS world, I’ve just realised reading this thread that I’ve not seen a ‘well used’ PRS... anyone care to share a photo of one so I can consider if I would buy a pre reliced PRS if it were available
Nope, no relic for me...in my case, I want my PRS to be perfect...no fake stuff. Not for me but to each his own.
However, if you want to see one of my favorite PRSi EVER, AND it has some "real players wear" just see @Mike Duncan Gold DGT...NOW that one...is the real m-fn deal!!
Was a sunburst also an intentional thing at first?
