NGD...Very Soon!

[Reo Clayton]

Hello, all. I'm new to this forum and PRS guitars. I ordered my first PRS yesterday and it is expected to arrive Thursday. I haven't been this excited since my daughter was born. This new guitar is my mid-life crisis birthday gift and it's a DGT goldtop with bird inlays and bound neck. A little nervous also as I have never purchased a guitar without checking it out in person before. I went back and forth for some time on the finish. I love the flame and quilted maple tops from PRS, but ultimately it came down to how well the carve top curves are visible on the gold top. It's just so beautiful; can't wait!

I'm looking forward to learning from all the experts here as I'm sure I'll have questions. Especially since this will be my first guitar with a trem. I apologize in advance if I get too gushy on here Thursday!

I'm not sure that you can get too gushy on here in a NGD thread. However, I must tell you The Rule! : No Pictures? It didn't happen.

 

[Reo Clayton]

Lol! I will be sure to post some pictures once it arrives.

Congrats!

If buying a nice guitar is a sign of midlife crisis, I have several crises a year...!!

 

[Warmart]

Well it will get easier as the day goes on, oh who am I fooling? It's gonna suck waiting - but, umm, where are the durn pictures??

And the F5 F5 F5 had me lmfao

 

[Reo Clayton]

This guitar is unreal! As soon as I grabbed the neck I knew my research paid off. The fit and finish is impeccable, it was in tune right out of the case, the action is lower than my LP, the weight...the weight of this thing is nothing! Wow!! I am embarrassed it took me this long to give PRS a shot. I can't wait to get acquainted with this one. #prs4life

Forgive me on the photos, my music room has horrible lighting and I'm not much of a photographer. They are basically proof I wasn't bluffing you all...and a little humble bragging!

Goldtops rule!
