Shnate McDuanus Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet! That thing looks incredible! I love the top. I'm not much for the way they feel, but if you like it, that's all that matters. ...I hope you didn't forget to get gifts for everyone else on your list...

Dub-T-123 Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Wow. Those flametop siverbust finishes are crazy. It kindof looks like clouds in the night after it rains. What is that finish called? Is it a keeper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Plains Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 Thanks guys! Charlie, sounds great so far...but it's still too soon to really tell. What guitar doesn't sound great during the honeymoon period? Those flametop siverbust finishes are crazy. Funny' date=' that's what I thought when I first saw it - it's Silverburst!! Close, but not quite. [img']http://i249.photobucket.com/albums/gg225/Gibson_Tim/PRS/IMG_1293.jpg[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted December 24, 2009 Author Share Posted December 24, 2009 "charcoal burst" you canadians and your fancy 1 off finishes Great Tim' date=' congratulations! Did you recieve her today?[/quote'] Hey, I didn't name it Mr. custom Telecaster. Got it late last night. I went to the airport to pick my my friend up - haven't seen this guy in well over 5 years. I took the case out of his hand and said "well, good seeing you again. Call me when you're in Canada again" and started walking away. I'm a d*ck, I know. Obviously, I didn't strand him there.

Dub-T-123 Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Hmm... Now that you put them side by side they're obviously totally different colors. I'd still say it's related to the silverburst. Again, great looking guitar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shnate McDuanus Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 You know, I thought that the PRS was beautiful. Then you put the Les Paul next to it...What were we talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Traitor! More than you know too.... When I ordered my PRS Custom 24 in August 2005, it took me over two years to get it. One delay after another after another. Things were finally coming together when PRS prevailed in the lawsuit Gibson filed against them. There were no Single Cuts produced until the suit was settled in 2007, then suddenly all their production slots and nice Maple were diverted to get them back in the market, leaving my order pushed back yet again. I bet YOUR guitar was one of them produced while I had NOTHING!!! I didn't get my PRS until November of 2007 - while the 2008 production was at full speed... Oh well, That's all done and gone now - we can still be friends. D!ck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 Oh, and the Trans Black finishes look even better in person. I almost bought a used one when I was in Amarillo last year. Congrats Tim! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketman Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 ???? ?µ??f? ?????a! I can never say something negative about PRS guitars, especially since I've been playing a lot of them lately. They are great playing, great sounding and great looking guitars. S???a??t???a... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdntac Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 I'm thinking about getting a PRS singlecut. How are you finding it feels as compared to a LP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 compared to a LP? They don't. That's how the lawsuit was thrown out. Lighter, thinner, smaller. I'll let Tim fill you in more completely with his opinion, but they remind me more of a Maple-capped SG. There's substantially much less wood in the PRS than a Les Paul - especially the reissues.

cdntac Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 I like my Custom 22 and the looks of the singlecuts appeal to me. Probably because they look like a LP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
