The Great Green Guitar Thread

[Rapdog]

I have a siggy just like that but a hard tail. I don’t get to play it that much but still think it is a fab guitar. Unfortunately the wife may stick to the “if it ain’t played....” motto.

Congratulations @Moondog Wily that deserves its own thread, if you haven’t already.

Did I say congratulations, I’m too busy looking at your pics again!

Well done.

Thanks Alnus, I did not know you did that here, the thread for a single guitar. I guess I could. I would like to get some better pix though ;~)) These are OK, but I was in a hurry when I took them. I know I can get better poses out of this PRS (Paul Reed Supermodel)! Smile for the camera Hoorman Git Fiddle (this guitars nickname)!!! I must say, this puppy sent chills up my spine and gave me some chicken skin when I first viewed it. I married it (till death do us part, literally) within a couple hours of first sight! Now THAT is LOVE!!!

Gasp!

Thanks all for the comments on my Green Monster! Official nickname is "Hoorman Git Fiddle". After I get my green tuner buttons and TRC from @docteurseb (and possibly swap to all gold hardware), I think it is licking the heels of Private Stock!!! At least IMO ;~)) I am so happy with this guitar (looks, playability, tone, etc.) that I just purchased another PRS today (in Violet Blue Burst - CU24)! Somebody save me, PLEASE! I am going to end up on the street holding my PRS and Martin collection!!!

You can buy a Gazebo for $39.99 and a camping stove. Who needs bricks and mortar?!

Good point Alnus! I will have to start saving up for those items!! Kind of puts dampers on future PRS purchases though, but that might be a good thing. I will post pix of my new life sustaining equipment once acquired. Thanks for the sage advice!!!

Gasp!

I know, right?

Very nice Shimmilou. Are those tuner buttons on the PRS stock? If not, where did you get them?

I think I might actually like the Guild better, but would have to hear them ;~)) Thanks for sharing!!!

 

[shimmilou]

Yep, the ZM is all stock, sounds terrific. The Guild Starfire IV has the “Lil buckers”, similar to mini humbuckers, sounds fantastic.

Ronquillo is responsible for me having this guitar

I see a green guitars thread, I post.

Faded Evergreen fresh out of the box. I mean case.

It has faded a bit more since 2016

And then there's this guy

Excuse the strangely colored thing in the middle

Daaammmn! That's some sweet green man. I need a ME in green!

 

[Moondog Wily]

Well, these that I am posting are not yet mine, but they are some very fine examples of Green PRS guitars. You might want to grab something to wipe up the drool before you start looking (although most of you have seen these famous pieces before). Here you go:

And then of course, the 30th Anniversary 2015 Dragon 8 in green:

They are green and I think deserve recognition on TGGGT (The Great Green Guitar Thread)!!!

 

[NoisyDante]

This was my first PRS, I was obsessed with the PS #14 they had on the site back then, it was malachite green with malachite birds and purfling. This was the closest to it I could get. Hasn’t faded a bit in 19 years.

The original PS #14. Had to use the wayback machine site to find the image.
