[hubbdub]

Think there may be an evolution in Tremonti’s prototype in the works… check this out from Dave’s Guitar Shop

Looks....ehm..... maimed?

Pardon my ignorance on who TF "Petrecca" is... Even google didn't seem to help me. Am I that old or out of touch?

I was wondering myself who or what a Petrecca is....

Yikes...

In the post, they stated that Petrecca is the name of the person who designed the prototype shape. No other details on this guitar though, and I don't think there are any other details that have been published anywhere else either.

Inching their way to an explorer type?

It looks good on you, though.

More than designer he seems a drunk woodcutter ...

I guess they’re trying to make that Tremonti prototype thing look more appealing.
It’s 0-0 tie.

Eeeh, thankfully I'm not gassing for this one.

Nice top… weird shape fo sho.

 

[show_a_little_faith]

Placing the mini toggle so close to the blade switch kinda baffles me (among many other things in those photos...)

Get some blue on it!

It's up on Dave's Guitars website. Price is what you'd expect for a one-off PS. i.e. way more than I could imagine paying for a guitar - we just got our two AC units replaced for a little more than that...

Says this about the shape and creator/inspiration:

"The body shape was a collaboration between Marvel/DC Comic Book Artist Robert Petrecca and Paul Smith in the late 1990's. The body was largely forgotten but was resurrected when PRS was exploring some alternate body shape options for artists. In 2017, one was build for Robert and a couple were built for Carlos Santana. "
