Title: Couple of nice pics of my Modern Eagle in action...
Post by: Twinfan on September 20, 2011, 09:24:26 AM
We did an outdoor gig not long ago and a couple of the pics taken by the organisers show my ME1 quite nicely, particularly the second one.  It's a shame the player isn't as photogenic!  :lol:

I love this guitar, and I hope the Private Stock I have arriving soon is on a par with it.....

I only wear shitety jeans when gigging, especially in the rain in a dirty field!

Blimey, I wasn't expecting fashion advice form you lot! :lol:

I see from the photos you've traded in your Bogner for a Roland Cube and a Marshall  :lol: :lol: :lol:

Of course - I've upgraded!  :lol:

They supplied backline for the gig, and it wasn't pretty as DSLs sound pants at low volume.  I wish I'd be able to crank it, but it was all mic'd up for the PA  :(

No joke: this guitar looks stunning, although I'm not a big fan of quilt/stripe-extravaganza. the 'washed' top is an exception and exceptional.

It's quite different to the "normal" PRS style, and all the better for it in my eyes.  There are several folks in the US who have glossed up theirs  :o  Wrong in every possible way...

is that a 'PRS birds' strap by the way? an official item, or lucky purchase?

All of the pics i've seen of modern eagles look a bit too flashy, but these pics make the ME look like a workhorse (in the best possible way)

Nice on mate. Probably the best guitar I have ever played!

I showed Jane and she came up with the typical girl response of 'it matches his jeans' (sorry Philly  :lol:)

Everyone's obsessed with my jeans aren't they!  :lol:

Ian - it's by far the best guitar I've ever played too.  I have high Private Stock expectations!

In the top 3 of my favorite guitars of all time and one I aspire to own one day. However.... Dave, come on.... get some flame effect faded jeans for crying out loud!

I'm less worried about the genes, and more worried about how you got David Cameron to drum in your band during the current economic crisis?

No offence Ian, I'm not ashamed of being in touch with my feminine side.... or am I?  :?
