No. 11 is the best number. Life was perfect then.I'm at eleven here... must be a movie reference...
Probably going to downsize...
I’ve always thought of Dave as a 12 type of guy- you know just one step above perfection. Biblical rather than movie allusion.No. 11 is the best number. Life was perfect then.
I assume your significant other reads the forums?Okay, this will be my last one for a while.

Those you know you are not at all surprised!!Whoops! I didn't make it very long.
I saw it up on Reverb today = such a killer guitar! Fighting the urge to send you a note on the side about it, but I'm trying to keep the funds I had planned available for something else.The Custom 2408 TCI is up for sale now.

I seem to not mind at all between Pattern and Pattern Thin neck carves, both are totally fine by me and I don't seem to even have a preference of one or the other.
Dude, this is so crazy after all of your 594 "snobbery" with respect to scale length. Totally love that this is a whole new journey!I retract this statement, LOL! I seem to be preferring the Pattern Thin carve over the Pattern carve. By a lot. And no binding over binding as well!
I never thought in a million years that would be the case for either, let alone both! Pigs must be flying somewhere...

That is the best thing a guitar(s) can do! Congrats on finding the strings again!!So weird (and cool) that less than 60 days ago I wasn't playing at all, and hadn't in almost 3 years, and now I am having the time of my life getting back into it!
If you like the 24-08 why are you selling it?
I went through something similar many years ago. I stopped playing when I changed careers many years ago and became a father around that same time. I didn't play for probably 12 years.Thanks! Yes, that is exactly what it is, a whole new different journey this time around, it is making it really fresh and exciting.
It is sort of an "older and wiser" thing going on too, leaving behind the snobbery it seems on things like scale length and binding, and also letting go of the vintage finish snobbery and having fun with the adventurous PRS bold finish colors available.

One funny thing was when I decided to get back into playing I bought an acoustic guitar. My daughter asked why I bought a guitar when I didn't know how to play one. My wife told her she might be surprised when she heard me "try" to play it. She had a CD playing and I grabbed the guitar and started figuring the songs out while they were playing. After a verse or so I was playing along with the song. The bad thing about this is she got the impression playing was easy... That came back to bite us later in life... I tried to get her to play and she didn't enjoy the learning process and didn't stick with it. She ended up playing a wind instrument in the school band so she did get into music, just in a different way than I did.
When I got back into electric guitar I jumped in with both feet and have tried to stay there ever since. I was right back into bands and playing gigs. I can say I have had a lot of fun with playing in my life. For all of those years I wasn't playing, I had one guitar and one amp. I would turn the amp on and plug in once every year or two just for giggles when nobody else was home.
I have been in a lull with playing the last three or four years now. I am keeping my eye open for a playing situation that will bring that excitement back. I am ready for it. I have had several bands reach out to me over the past couple of years but they are all playing really old music that isn't going to get any good gigs in this area. I don't think they have figured out that their song lists are what they like and not what people in the venues they want to play will like. I want a low stress, low drama, playing situation and I don't know if I have the energy to take on coaching another band to get them gigging on a regular basis. This situation seems to be one I end up in more than I care for.
It is good to see your renewed interest. It gives me some hope that I will find the right group to play with at some point. I can feel your excitement through your posts.
