Awesome! The pickups on this are different from the McCartys or just the Brazilian RW???


Looks damn cool, but look-wise I still prefer the natural and burst one... perhaps if you post more pics I can change my mind :lol:

The pickups are PRS 'RP' pickups, different to the McCartys.  It has a Brazilian RW neck and a thicker headstock so it can have locking tuners too....

Man, I'm so jealous :lol:.  I've always wanted one, and they just came out with a Modern Eagle II.  Post some videos or sound clips please; I can only find a few Modern Eagle vids on youtube.

I'm looking to borrow my mother-in-law's camcorder in a couple of weeks to try recording some clips, so watch this space...

I'm not really a PRS fan, but the Modern Eagle is a sweet guitar and the blue looks absolutely correct on it. Congrats!

Surely with Guitar buys like this, you could afford your own camcorder :wink:. I love the dark neck on this one but I'm not a huge fan of the blue. Still a very cool PRS and no mistake.

Ha ha!  Too true!  I'd hardly ever use one though, so I've not bothered getting one of my own.

Wonderful guitar TF - looks amazing. Did you say the neck was unfinished? That should make a great difference to the feel.

What you need now is a big glass case to put it in in your front room (in the style of wayne's world - she will be mine......oh yes)

Enjoy

ps if you do some clips do us all a favour and plug it into the orion would you?

Lovely stuff mate, very nice indeed. Will you be bringing it to the BKP meet in a few weeks time?
I think I hate being indecisive.

How did I know you were going to ask that???  :lol:  I don't think I'll be bringing it, no.  It's a bit too 'new' yet, and I'd be mortified if something happened to it!

It does - even compared to my McCarty Rosewood the Eagle neck is unbelievable.  Totally smooth and slick to play.

That would be the plan  ;)  I'll do some clips of a couple of guitars through the Orion and the Deluxe...
