Wow... Speaking of the ole retirement Studio... last Saturday I played it the whole last set and a half. It was as setup with the same factory strings and it was awesome!!! Saved it for last of the 3 guitars i took that night. I had the PS 409 and the Brian’s run Swamp Ash 509 that I play about every gig. She’s a keeper and I highly recommend everyone at least try one if you don’t want jump off the cliff and just buy one without playing one first like most of us did. Nice ones in this thread!!! Cheers, Brett!!!
