NGD NF53

OK, so just got home from first band practice with the NF53.
What a guitar!
So expressive, and in the mix in spades. I'm loving the spanky bridge position, and the mid position is wonderful for fulfilling rhythm parts.
I let my lead plyer try it for 4 or 5 songs and it really stood out! Not too dissimilar from the McSoapy from an in the mix perspective, but with its own amazing tone.
So much fun!

Nice on “not Dave”.

Oh, it’s Dave all right.
He just isn’t here

That's why the strap came with it! It was mated centuries ago next to some magical boiling cauldron involving a couple of dragons and a blonde haired chick with a huge army.....

Well... almost...
Apparently it'll get here sometime tomorrow.
The back story...
For almost a year I've been keeping an eye out for the right T shaped PRS guitar, so started to look heavily at both NF53 and MK. My first thought was the MK because it has more switching options, and locking tuners.
Time went by and I slowly gravitated more to the NF53, and mostly because it seems a little more true to the original subject, but with beefier pups.
As time went on I read all the reviews here, videos on Youtube etc... the usual drill.
Well... the other night I was doing my typical rounds on Reverb and such, and I found what looked to be an intriguing offering, a NF53 in my preferred finish, dead mint, and at a very reasonable price. I then had to do a double take when I looked at the avatar of the seller, and the name of the Reverb shop. Much to my amazement it was @Glide-bpm !
Well dayum... I immediately PM'd him here, and in less than an hour the deal was done, and ready to ship! Wow!
So, Will... Kudos to you mate! You are fantastic to deal with, a real gent, and man... super quick to get it organized and shipped, especially in the midst of recovering from a dislocated knee! Take a bow mate!

For now, here she is using Will's sellers photos. More photos when She gets here.
