Fancy a brand new American PRS for £700??

[Ian Price]

Cheers for that info Philly - maybe I'll try a Mira X out when I have bit more cash. Not likely to be any time soon though  :(

It's not a strat, Ian...
It's not a strat...
It's RW strat money...
But it's not a strat...
...and you want a strat...
And, anyway, how can it possibly sound as good as your BG'd Baja...

 :D

You are right. It's not a strat!

[dave_mc]

I'm almost the opposite - I hardly ever buy anything that's a bargain!  I want something so badly I pay over the odds for it, then two months later every shop in the country has them, and £200 cheaper.  :roll:

This PRS offer is one of the few good deals I've ever spotted!

Hahahahaha

I suspect a happy medium is the best way to do it- be willing to pay for it if you really want it, but also be open to the odd crazy-good deal. You can get into bother with either extreme... :lol: :oops:

EDIT: Regarding the PRSes, I've seen prices like those in at least a couple of online shops, so with any luck those prices might stay for a while :D

Haha, fwiw I imported a PRS for quite a lot of money about 3 months before the economy cr@pped itself and I would have been able to pick up similar for a fair whack less. Never mind!

Well this one is on sale for 799GBP

Just saying  8)

[Philly Q]

Yeah, they've had that one in stock a long time (I bought my Mira X there, for £899).  Maybe the prices are coming down generally.  I still haven't seen any other dealers selling the Starla X though.

[dave_mc]

Me neither. When I said I had seen similar prices in other shops too, I meant the Mira X. :oops:

I don't think I would like the 305. It just doesn't look right to me. I tried a friends 513 out a few weeks ago and didn't like it at all. It felt very sterile and too balanced for my liking.

Yes, I'm a vintage fender man. I don't think I'll ever be anything but that (although I do like 6105s and a 9" radius). There's probably not much point in me wanting anything other than strats or teles.
