No worries mate! I'm hoping that the Signature will remove my GAS for a while! I'm expecting it any day now.
I think I hate being indecisive.

I see he still has that Tele!

He does still have that Tele. I made a quick call today - just to check!

Unfrotuantely I won't be able to afford it by trading the strat so it comes down to either selling my current tele or keeping it until the GAS has subsided!

I hope someone buys it, to take away the temptation!

Me too! I am trying to convince myself it would be too risky a purchase if I bought it without seeing it/playing it first!

I suspect it's not too risky at all - I bet it's a monster.  But it is a lot of money. 

I was sitting playing one of my own Teles this afternoon, sounding dreadful - and it struck me that I'd still sound dreadful on that Relic.  It'd still be me playing it.  :lol:

A monster - I wish you hadn't said that! Also my tele wasn't sounding good this afternoon - I'm not sure if it was me half thinking it didn't sound good so I had an excuse to buy the relic. Probably.

I've made my mind up. I'm not going to be buying that tele. That's my last word on it!

Me neither. 

Especially since I just impulse-bought a new neck for my hardtail Strat.  :oops:

Nope, not for me.  I'm after a rosewood necked PRS McCarty, or a Modern Eagle.  Not interested in anything else.....

Just another Fender American Standard neck, one-piece maple.  I never liked the rosewood-board neck on my Inca Silver Strat, I was thinking of selling the guitar but Am Std hardtails are pretty rare.  So I decided to get a maple neck instead.

sincerely i can't see what excites you all about the mira... maybe it's because i don't like those pickguards, but it's maybe the only PRS i'd never buy in my life...  :(
it's just a matter of personal taste, of course... i believe it sounds and feels as good as any othe PRS model...
Mule, MQ, Stockholm, CS, RY, MM, PK, ANB, CNB, AWP, CWP, PiG90...

too many? ;)
