...you can get the compound radius, chambered body and contoured heel from Warmoth!  :P

Very true and that's the way I'd like to go, but that would be much more than the price I expect these to go for...

Not at the moment, but I may be doing some more "down-sizing" in the weeks to come.....

What might you be pondering to let go? A Philly downsize always seems to bring up something interesting.

And by the way I like all three reverends, especialy the tele.

Lord knows - probably a couple of necks, a couple of bodies, Teles and/or Strats.  Can't be more specific than that really!  :lol:

With all the stuff you have under your bed and crammed into every nook and cranny this sounds like a "light trimming" rather than a "downsizing"


 :D
I think I hate being indecisive.

You could be right, Ian..... but maybe a few light trims will add up to a downsize eventually?!  :lol:

(Although, like hair, the collection under the bed will insist on growing....  :? )

Resuscitating this thread after a couple of weeks.....

I didn't see this mentioned on the NAMM coverage, but I'm liking it!  Even the three knobs look OK in this setting, I think.

The Bugera Magician really caught my eye ;)

The Trirec also looks a good product to try to. I'd really like to see the efficiancy of their new Infinium Technology.

OMG, what's the name of that colour, if you know? I'v been trying to track it down for ages as I want it for my guitar, but never found it. It's a gorgeous colour

PRS just call it "Scarlet Red".

Here's a picture of the real thing - it actually has chrome (or maybe nickel?) covers on the EMGs.

The Holdsworth HH2 from Carvin looks interesting to me. I'd like to feel what a 20 inch radius is like to play. Also the Eric Johnson Eminence speakers caught my eye, along with the new Celestion Creamback.

Thanks for that Philly.

And I'm really interested in trying a 20" Radius too. I may try and see if I can find a MM JP XI or 12 when I'm down London

I didn't see this mentioned on the NAMM coverage, but I'm liking it!  Even the three knobs look OK in this setting, I think.

It was mentioned in a couple of DG interviews, but not the details on availability.

I think it's a lot of cash at £2250 when you can get a lightly used maple top DGT for around £1400.  Used PRS values have gone through the floor recently, and there's a LOT of choice out there for £1000 - £1400...
