that's some nice bookmatching on the one on the right

that being said, private stock prices are crazy :lol:

EDIT: I see they're not listing any prices on those links... guess it's "If you have to ask..."? :lol:

I know what you mean, I often find the "autumnal" PRS colours a little dull looking (although my McCarty Korina and Mira X are both sunbursts).  I'm usually more taken with colours like black cherry, or blues and greens.

Agreed. Black Cherry or a darker blue burst woukld be awesome however my favorite PRS colour is the one Dave's got.... would match my favorite jeans a treat! Lol....  :lol:

If I was going to buy a guitar just to look at, it'd be one of these.

Beautiful guitars, without question. If I win the Euromillion jackpot tonight I might pick up a few and fashion them into occasional tables. :)

These guitars sound & look unbelievable !And i love the pu's shape (not so much at first sight but now..yes!).And it makes sense too:the neck pu is like a Narrow-field (clear,not muddy) and the bridge is full-humbucker  8)!The only problem..is the price !That's all  :)...

Great guitars for sure, but cost a fortune.

You're right, that top would've been so much better in a less poo-like colour!

If I ever win the lottery I will buy one of these. Then I'd rough sandpaper it, spraypaint it bright red and cover it in stickers. And fit DiMarzio Super Distortions in it. Then give it them back.

And the Grolsch beer bottle tops in lieu of strap locks. I also think there's room to roughly rout out some space to put another pickup in the middle there.

I really can't get excited about these at all. I just don't get PRS guitars. I think I lack the sophistication to appreciate very fancy wood topped guitars. I recognise that it puts me in a minority but I've never seen a PRS that gave me a hint of GAS. I should probably try harder.
