Hoping not to annoy with this. I realize how subjective these things are. I'm not asking for the best/worst/et al. Just others opinions on this. I figured since PRS, this is the best place to ask?
I've always liked the PRS guitars I've had through the years. Just haven't had a lot of them, nor I do I know much about PRS in general.
After a lot of years though I got my hands on a new Pauls Guitar (mfr'd 2022). I love, love the guitar.
I'm considering a second PRS from the same dealer. It'll either be a Private Stock version of the same guitar, or a new DGT.
Obviously, I need to make a trip back down to my favorite dealer and just play them both. I will do that within the next week or so.
In the mean time hopefully some of you won't mind sharing you view on Private Stock compared to production. Am I wrong to think of PRS Private Stock a similar thing to other mfr's "custom shop"?
I never want to come across as some sort of snob, but I've always preferred Fender/Gibson Custom Shop offerings (have some) and Tyler, Suhr, Anderson offerings (have some of those too).
I really don't mind the Private Stock prices as long as I truly love what I'm playing. Soon will find out myself what that Private Stock Paul's Guitar really is in my hands. If I like it I will buy, or the DGT. We'll see...soon.
Thank you all for anything you're willing to share .
