(EDIT:  Bloody hell, that picture's giving me GAS and I've already got a Mira!!  :(  :roll: )


 :lol:  You've got a really bad case of GAS Philly!!

'Tis true.  It's because of that lovely wood grain.  If you look at the "vintage mahogany" one on the PRS website it just looks like poo brown, very boring.

Yep, they're uncovered SC245 pups.

I find them similar to my Riff Raffs, or maybe an Alnico V Stormy Monday?  They're low output and clear.


Low output but sound VERY different in my 245, very vintage,thick/chewy = WOW   :lol:

:oops:

I'm not very reliable am I?


Well if you would not sell your Singlecut trem, and wait until I have enough cash (HOWEVER long that may be :lol:), then I can GUARANTEE my next guitar will be a PRS.  8)

(I personally think you should just lend it to me indefinitely though.  8)  )

Getting off topic!

Could some PRS-owner tell me the measures of the headstock of PRS??? I'm going to build the neck of this Warmoth body, with a PRS headstock:

at lower top piont ( right handside as you look at it ) 2 3/16


lenght

from back of nut to widest point left hand side 1" 1/8
from back of nut to widest point right hand side 1" 3/16

from back of nut to lenght point left hand side 5"1/2

I like that body shape, reminds me of a Gibson L5-S:

Phill, the name at Warmoth of it is exactly L5S   :D
I like it, but I thought it would be bigger... it's not much more wider than a LP and looks "shorter" than...
These guitar will have Mules A4, rosewood neck and fingerboard with birds inlay (not bolt on, I'll do it glued, deep set neck)... MUCH work is coming!

Ah, I should have looked on the Warmoth site, shouldn't I?  :lol:

Sounds great Fernando, show us pics when you've built it!

No trem version - the body is too thin.

I'll have to get some good pics of mine done if I can



Jesus Christ Twinfan, this one must have just gone under my radar  :lol:  You got ANOTHER GUITAR?  :lol:  :lol:  :lol:
