Upcoming NGD: McCarty Trem

[pat10295]

The auction ended 11:01PM EST. I'm in awe. '98. Abalone dots and wings. Perfection. Though those two graph tech saddles may be replaced. Maybe Phase II's and a trip to PTC for a Whale Blue refinish next year. As of now. I'm super excited.

Awesome score I saw that one on ebay and thought it was a great find!!!
Question, what other colors would you guys look at to get the flame to show. Whale blue can be so dark at times.

I ask due to the fact I have the same finish on a 10 top 95 custom 24 and I am thinking of a color change also.

Oh yeah .................................... Congrats, She's a Beauty :rock:

 

[pat10295]

Thanks everyone! Words can't explain how excited I am. Believe it or not this is going to be my first set neck PRS. I've been a CE player for the longest time now and honestly I was looking for another one with a wide fat neck when I stumbled across this beauty. And at a great price too I might add.

Congrats Pat. Looks like you love those tear drops bursts!

 

[pat10295]

Thanks Jake! I've had the tendency to gravitate towards those bursts lately. Guess that's just the guitars trying to show me that they've got the tone.

Great score!

 

[Jason Penn]

That top is asking to become vintage yellow. That grain would look good in VY.

 

[clcwarlock]

Nice score Paul.

Beauty...play the crap out of that thing!

Doh! The guitar needed to be signed for upon delivery and of course FedEx sneaks up while I'm letting the dog out and I completely missed the driver. I called immediately afterwards and said that they can't get in touch with Home Delivery Drivers.

He was waiting for you to leave... sneaky bastid.

I called off today just for the guitar. No idea how I'm going to receive it tomorrow

Update: I'm picking it up later tonight (hopefully) at a Local FedEx.
