Despite all the "lawyer guitar" bollocks, they're extremely player-friendly.

Does this presume that lawyers can't be players? (not that I like PRS's myself...)  :D

I wasn't sure how much hand-sanding takes place at PRS, they seem much more consistent than Gibson, for example.  Gibson neck profiles - especially Custom Shop, it seems - vary wildly!

Yep, Gibson all over the shop with everything - QC, quality, sanding, everything!  :lol:

PRS are very consistent with everything.  There's a great series of videos on YouTube going through all the stages of the PRS factory.  It's worth a watch if you haven't seen it.

In the sense that PRS-haters contemptuously use the phrase "lawyer guitars", I think the implication is that lawyers can't be players.

You can prove them wrong, Elliot!

A good friend of mine is a solicitor (that's a lawyer, isn't it? :) )  and he's a very fine guitar player, gigs most weeks.  he does actually have a PRS, but he prefers his Musicman Luke

I thought it was "stock-brokers" anyway? :lol:

(I think I've heard, and even used, "estate agent" as well...)

How about "Dentist"? (Have we got any dentists here?).

"Hi Dave, how you getting on with your dentist guitar?  Is it safe?  Is it safe?"

I dunno, I can never figure out why some work but not others.  But I think it's the URL, not the type of file.

Yeah, I'm fairly certain that's the case - it'll be the company's internet policy and the sites they've identified as potentially "not safe", "inappropriate", or "distracting for our poor employees" :lol:

Well it seems I should get a PRS then because I can't and never will be able to play...

Hmmm......

.......... well, I can't and never will be able to play.......

....... and I work in "the professions".....


..... and I own several PRS guitars....


.... so it seems I'm unwittingly (and unwillingly) backing up the theory.  :(

Look wot you've done Elliot!!

You've triggered Philly's "Eeyore" mode...

It's gonna take weeks of medication and therapy to pull him back out of it now :lol:

EDIT: He'll probably have to buy another guitar before he feels better again...
