Thats is very nice!!! the rainforest green made me think of Predator as soon as i saw the guitar :lol:

I had similar jungley thoughts.  The name "Rainforest" really suits it perfectly.

Anyone remember Corona fizzy pop from the '70s?  They had a "Tropical" flavour - yes, it was green - and the guitar really reminds me of that!

Very nice indeed. My son hankers after a PRS-I dare not let him see these pics. I suppose I can wait until it appears in seconds out in a few months.

Harsh Mr38th!  :o  This one's a complete keeper - too many stars aligned for it to happen.

Off to bed for a restless 5hrs kip before I pick her up!

Very beautiful guitar - interested to hear what the 408 pickups sound like. Must confess I'm not a green guitar fan (http://bareknucklepickups.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=21073.msg283367;topicseen#msg283367), although the top is stunning, to me the colour makes it look like a zebra with jaundice  :lol: - I went for Amber Black on my Studio...very boring I know :( - I'll still try and outbid 38thBeatle when it appears in Seconds Out though  :lol:

Nice one :D

I, too, wasn't sure about the idea of "green" on the original discussions. I like green, one day I might actually get a guitar with a green finish, but I wasn't sure how it would look on this. With one pic of the actual beast, though, yep, it's fab.

I hear what they're saying about "it's even better in the flesh". I remember everyone drooling about Jonathan's (FelineGuitars) emerald Lion when he first unveiled it on here, and I thought "oh yeah, nice enough" from the pics. But when I saw it in the flesh it was a whole couple of levels better. His later pics seemed to do it more justice, but still not quite as drop-dead gorgeous as the thing really is. Maybe it's something about trying to capture green guitars in a photograph?

Looking forward to hearing what you make of it when it's actually in your hands. It's got a lot to live up to now! :D

Looks cool also because it's an unusual color. I don't share the fascination for this type of guitar, but I can appreciate its quality and craftsmanship. I'm also pretty sure it plays and sounds well. It's not very rock'n roll though, more a Bentley than a Shelby so to speak.

Its a cool colour for sure and I bet it plays like a dream, however PRS's don't speak to me in the way Gibsons do.  Saying that, it's worth noting that I feel the same about most other non-Gibsons.

I'm home, had family round all day so just starting to play with the new toy.

Initial thoughts?  Best looking guitar in the world ever, and the Modern Eagle has met its match...
