NPOGD - Got one back that got away!

[Bowtiefanatc]

New Previously Owned Guitar day.

2021 was a wild year both personally and gear wise for me. I did a lot of trading, buying and selling. I ended up trading away a really special PRS and I finally got it back last night.

So I traded away my first core, 2004 CU24 Brazilian Edition, for my ‘90 Studio awhile back. I made a trade with the shop after seeing it there since my trade and it hit all of the old feelings from when I first got it. I worked out another trade and got it back in my hands. This one is never leaving again!

My 3 Brazilian Sisters

Sorry for all the blue guitars Sergio

Awesome to right a wrong like that!

Congrats on the sweet trio!

 

[Bowtiefanatc]

Thanks! The shop took such great photos of it I had to get it back.

now the debate of whether I’m gonna keep the pickups in it or swap them.

 

[SinSir]

Smokin hot! Congrats..

Heck of a trio

 

[Alnus Rubra]

Congratulations, that sure is some sweet quilt. Well done for bringing it back into the fold.

I always have to do a double take when I see the metal-flake electric blue one. We should start a club, I don't think there are many, we can be super exclusive!

The zebra pickups look killer in it!

Congrats on getting an old friend back!

Oh yeah that’s right. You have the same one. Yours is a Special as well right? With the Trem uproute.

 

[bodia]

Glad you got it back in your hands.

 

[sergiodeblanc]

Happy for you.

 

[shinksma]

Happy for you.

This is about the best you can get out of Sergio with a blue guitar, sorry...

OTOH, I think it looks great (but I like blue!), and that's a nice tale of chasing after something you thought got away...

Killer! Glad you got it back! That's pretty much what I did with my wife, I let her go like thirty years ago(dang I'm old!), then I recaptured her eight years ago. It was destiny just like your guitar.

 

[Aahzz]

Sweet!!!

 

[Spirit]

Cool,I’ve been trying to get back a telebration telecaster that I stupidly sold when broke,

 

[hord1080]

Nice!! That's like my ideal combo. What color is that? Matteo?

If you don't mind my asking, how did she escape the first time?

She chewed thru the rope. I'm using a ball and chain method this time.

"May your ball be heavy and your chain strong!"

Thank you my dude!

Thank you! Yeah it’s Blue Matteo with natural back. One of my favorite combos.
