ah! so apparently i found out it was a run of 100 total with 4 color options. so there were only 25 of each color. not bad! also i'm seeing them as originally being listed as $4200. i paid A LOT less than that. seriously try one of these if you ever get the chance. amazing.

Not gonna lie, that natural is my favorite by a lot. Black slate second by a lot too.

I mean the structure on that natural....ffs.

The burned chrome looks waaaaay best on the black slate though. Natural with brushed nickel though....

Nice new axe man!

Sounds great on the video link, its also nice to see someone showing some animation when they are playing in front of the camera, rather than the stock "I don't want you looking at me looking bored" face lol.

Are you going to change the pickups out or going to keep the stock ones in? Which ones would you get if you wanted to switch?

at this point i'm keeping the original pickups in there. they're working really well. if i decided to change them i'd probably go with juggernauts. i had them in my old les paul custom for a short while which was also mahogany/maple and that thing sang.

also thanks everyone! and sorry kiichi lol

Ah cool, I've been looking at PRS's too as an alternative to my main band guitar, they hold drop tunings well apparently, I've seen bands from All Time Low to Alter Bridge to Nickelback using them. Don't know what BKP's I'd put in them though.

so far this one is holding tuning veeeery well. i'd also consider the rebel yell pickups


That's cool then, I wouldn't class drop c as a "low tuning" cos its just a tone down with a dropped 6th. But I like a good neck and action so its nice to play, esp with thick strings.

The top natural one you have there is very very pretty. In general I think the slate finish that you have is the hottest.
