*SPECIAL NOTE TO SERGIO: There is a Santana at the end, and it's the color that shant be named...

I watched that this morning, really liked it.

Does that mean tours are open again?

The PRS website still says 'no tours.' https://prsguitars.com/tours

Jon Bolinger is beyond cheerful.

I’d spray paint that in the factory parking lot.

Give Paul’s car Serg-jazzle as well.

That striped blue shirt Paul wears unbuttoned is ancient.

He should get a leather jacket to look like an edgy 60 yr old.

Ok watching now, 26:52 there are some paddle headstocks. Could these be the RF model?

40:46 natural SS body, unless it’s getting opaque over the top. Ignore colour on top.

Fantastic video. Really shows how much hand work, and attention to detail, goes into every guitar. I was fortunate enough to get a one-on-one tour with Shawn back in October, 2018 (can't believe it's been almost 4 years!). Basically the same tour starting at the wood intake/drying area. I did get to see the inlay area and Private Stock area. We wandered through the Vault and checked out some cool wood, stopped to talk to Doug Sewell in the amp department (and walked past a Hendrix head sitting in the hallway!!!). Ended in the Archive, which was beyond cool.

Has anyone said how much they miss Shawn lately. I miss that dude!

That new CNC process! Quite impressive.

Sounds like a cool day.

At my age, any wood is good.

"WTF? You didn't just say that."

"I was being uh...funny."

Does anyone know when PRS will start doing tours again? I know they stopped because of covid.

Hey now, who amongst us doesn't have a favorite shirt? Come on, show of hands.

When I did my PS, I did the tour. I didn't get a private tour, but I did get to watch Shawn give Brian G crap for not arranging one for me. What was funny was a few of the people in the factory recognized me from Experience and said hi, and one guy in the group finally said, "Who the hell are you?" And that was even before I ran into Brian in electronics and got a huge welcome. But I did get to chat w/Shawn for about five minutes in the vault on my build day.

Still miss him being around here.

John tours with a SE ONE...

And a Boss Katana 50 combo when he plays in Nashville!

If John Bollinger was the 7 dwarves he'd be
Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy, Happy and Happy.
