I'm just wondering if I'm the only one who redeemed the certificate for the free Rolex that came with it, instead of leaving it with the rest of the case candy?
I also read the magazine, put the bumper sticker on my car, and used the ziplock bag for a sandwich.
And I'm contemplating actually using one of the little wrenches. I thought the little wrench case that exactly matched the guitar case was a great touch, but I was surprised that the little wrench case didn't come with a leather handle. I'll bet the ones that come with the private stocks have one.
In fact, the only criticism of the guitar I have is that by the time the guitar gets to the dealer, sits in stock for a few months, and gets to the buyer, the magazine is out of date. So really, it's a bit like going to the dentist and reading an old magazine. Except it's not wrinkled and doesn't have drool and toothpaste splashes on it.
The saving grace, however, is that you aren't really at the dentist when you open the PRS case, unless, you know, you're actually that guy who'd take his guitar to the dentist for a drill and fill.
I will leave it up to the reader's imagination as to whether the whole PRS guitar case experience is better than the dentist's office, even with the gas. However, if you're a dentist, let me say that your customers would probably rather be at a guitar store, even if they have to listen to the guy playing Stairway to Heaven at 1000 decibels.
You go to the dentist, you get a toothbrush and some floss as a giveaway.
At the guitar store, I don't know about you, but I get to flirt with the slightly overweight girl with pierced everything, a tattoo on her neck, and pink hair who works at the accessory counter. You know the one I'm talking about, right? Plays bass in a band? Yeah, that's the one. Nice kid. Digs my molester 'stache.
