PRS Guitars are like a high-quality Swiss watch

[Revelation]

This is what an owner of a PRS Core guitar told me. PRS Guitars are like a high-quality Swiss watch. The detail, the thought process behind every part of the design. The craftmanship, the sound, the look....its just awesome and inspiring. I agreed with him as soon as he said it.

If only they had a 'self-playing' mechanism...

Well the cost is certainly comparable!

I shake mine for a minute or so to "wind them up" before I play! Maybe that will help with the self-play!! Although from what I have heard Mr. Les, you don't need some mechanism playing for you (and if they did have such a feature, GM would most likely buy several of them and kick you to the curb)!!!

Does this mean we'll see silicon trem springs and rubies on the knife edges soon?

So I guess that makes my S2 like a finely-crafted Seiko

My SE is an Arbroath “knock off” then!

My first automatic watch was a Seiko. My first PRS was an SE.

Over the years I expanded with the addition of 4 cores. Gotta start somewhere.

I was born with a gold Rolex on my wrist.


Not really. I made that up. Complete fabrication. It was a silver spoon. On my wrist. Which, OK, was weird.

The north side of my town faced east and the east was facing south.

I quite agree, including the over-pricing of both.

Are the straps interchangeable?

 

[Wakester]

I agree with everyone, core and ps are swiss watches, S2's are Seiko's and SE' are Timex.

It's a good thing they make SWatch Watches in Switzerland and not Croatia.Otherwise they would be ......well, you know.

I wonder if Squier would be comsidered the Casio of guitars?

There used to be a Timex factory in Dundee!

There's no such thing as overpricing where there's sufficient demand.

There is, however, such a thing as overvaluing by the consumers who are creating the demand.

I have no opinion on which watches are, or are not, in too much demand. I've owned several very expensive watches, and now don't even care about them at all.

One wonders about the demand for pricy guitars. And I say this as a person who's paid the freight to get some. Then again, who says life has to make actual sense?

It's all a WTF situation. So it's WTF, and then you die, leaving it to the next generation of crazy people to figure out.

Now if I could just figure out how to get my McCarty to stay on my wrist!

i bought a (german) meat slicer the other day, the ad lit read ‘runs like a swiss watch’. guessing this means it’s not digital.

Analogue slices have more taste.

"I once sliced a piece so thin, you couldn't even see it."

"How did you know it was there?"

"Well, I just assumed."
