PR Guitars as In Paul Richardson, blimey I know him from the Mayfair Rock club days in Newcastle.
Really glad to hear he's doing so well.

And congrats on trimming your collection to such a super range  :D

Cheers!  And yes, Paul builds a cracking gee-tar!

How did I miss this thread yesterday??!!  :o

It is an admirable position to be in.  Wish I could follow suit, and I was picking up a few guitars last night thinking "wonder if I should sell this?", but I don't think I could ever get down to 8.  And I'm certainly not GAS-free at the moment.


Could GAS be in remission?

I notice you had the good sense to say "in remission", not "cured"!   :lol:

Tut tut tut, you realise now the focus of your GAS will move towards, pedals, amps and guitar related gadgets. :lol:

He's already got loads of those!!   :P

I think a family photo is in order!

+1

That would be the icing on the cake - a real Kodak moment!

Yep, with just 8 they should all fit nicely on the 3-piece suite!
BKPs I've Got:  RR, BKP-91, ITs, VHII, CS set, Emeralds
BKPs I Had:  RY+Abraxas, Crawlers, BD+SM

Seeing as how it's such a nice night, I managed to grab a pic outside.

I'm very thankful that I'm in a position to be able to create such a nice collection.......

Oooh lovely. The red tele is not sparkling as much as I thought it would though.

It's the angle I think!

That's a fine looking collection... OK, fess-up, how long did it take to organise the group? (Hmmm... Francine here, and then the Fano there... no, the PRS there to balance Francine... etc...)

Strangely enough, the PRS comes off looking like the least stand-out item in that shot (not what I'd have expected actually).

EDIT: Not sure it would have brought out the sparkle, but I would have tried the SG where the strat is, red-sparkle where the SG is, the strat where the red-sparkle it... this is cos in paintings (classical etc) you stick bright red in the middle distance to add "depth", it draws you through the picture... If you stick bright red in the foreground, your eye is drawn straight to it and your brain struggles to see much else... (might be what's kicking the PRS into "oh yeah, and that one")

Quick, get back out there, the light's still good! :lol:

EDIT2: I forgot, after Philly said "sofa", I was half expecting an "Yngwie style" chuck-em-all-on-the-sofa, snap-em-where-they-fall, sort of picture... :lol:

Andy - you think WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too much.

I grabbed them and put them in a random position that mixed the blues and reds up a bit  :oops:

I'm no arty photographer, as you can see!  :lol:

:lol:

My "original" post was just the first two lines - but shobet got in with his and you'd replied "it might be the angle" and the reply thing said "you might want to review..." and I suddenly realised what the problem was, "bright red in the foreground..."

So, I thought I'd pass it on... :lol: :roll:

Cheers for posting the pic Dave - they look great. The more I see it the more I'm drawn to that Fano. Good to see the Esquire looking great too!
I think I hate being indecisive.
