That red one was super hot! I really would love another NF3

That guitar really tied the room together
The guitar arrived yesterday and I set it up today. It is a keeper. Under 7.5 lbs and in great shape. I love it. I'll likely play it at my gig next weekend. Can't wait.
I hope to be able to pay it forward. Next time I see an NF3 listed, especially if it's at a good price, I'll share the info here.

PRS NF3 at Music-Go-round
Still there. The price is a bit steep, but it’s in great shape. 10-15% off and it’d be gone!
They actually had two of them that were nearly identical a week or so ago when I was there.

I just had an NF3 dropped in my lap yesterday. Good price, and just a shade over 7 Lbs, at 7 lbs, 1 oz. It was bought new, and hardly ever played! I had one in 2013, but I wound up moving it due to it weighing 8 1/2 lbs, and sounding dead. This new one, ( in cherry ) is so light and resonate, I know it’s gonna be a keeper. I will be setting it up tonight and hopefully putting up pics over the weekend...along with the 10 top 594 semi hollow,I picked up last week, I am a very happy camper! I had been looking for an NF3 for the last year, but refused to go over 2k for one. Lo and behold, a local guy I know told me about it, and a phone call later I was driving a half hour away to pick it up…the rest is history!

Lucky man!
A big part of the classic Strat sound is the plastic pick guard-mounted single coils, so "sounds like a Strat" is a relative thing.
I think the Fiore sounds great. It's a very cool sounding instrument. Fantastic for all the stuff it does well.
Here's Trower. Sounds like a Strat.
Here's Fiore. Close in some ways but fundamentally different. The note attack comes on with more immediacy. In some ways it reminds me of a Telecaster.

Totally off your point, but the studio version of that song just grooves…
Truly.
Incidentally, I don't think it's at all necessary, or even desirable, for me to use the exact guitar artists use to do a version of one of their songs. I'm not much of a tone chaser. It's gonna sound different no matter what, so might as well go for my own tone.
But that's not a prescription for anyone else, I only apply it to myself.
On the other hand, I do 'get' that lots of other players might love a sound so much that they want to emulate it exactly. Nothing wrong with doing that if it floats your boat!
I love a Strat in the right hands, on the neck pickup. I've got some friends who sound great on them, I hire Strat players for sessions, etc. Nothing else replicates those particular resonances. But the right hands have never been my hands! Well, so far.

Maybe I should list mine for about $20,000. I did, after all, add strap locks.

Holy crap! Well, I feel partially responsible… I mean, I’ve been shouting it from the rooftops here at at TGP for years now. It’s is nuts…. “Rare” is usually a trigger word for me on eBay, reverb, etc.Man, are the sharks ever in the water… out for blood. It’s just gone stupid now…
