Finally Joined the PRS Club..

[Corpsegrinder88]

So ive been in the market for a Super nice PRS with Brazilian fingerboard for quite sometime..

Was on ebay and saw a guy Near Dallas that has a few for sale. so called him up and went over. was blown away at all the rare and nice PRS's this dude has.. man. whew.. had to leave quick or i would go broke..

but I really love the grain texture in this cut of Brazilian.. very nice and rich i think.. Natural Flame with Gold HW. I call this the Classy guitar.. . like a 500 dollar blowjob..

Its an SC245 and funny thing. has Paul reeds autograph on the back. not under the clear. so guess someone had him sign it..

Anyways. grab a tissue or paper towl and the windex.. you might need it..

That is gorgeous! one of the nicest singlecuts I've seen, one of the nicest guitars period.

 

[synrgy]

Beautiful!

Nice 245! I don't think I've ever seen one not glossed.

What do you think of the pickups?

 

[mhickman2]

Nice score man! PRS's are the shit. I'm in the market for a custom 24 artist. I may try to scoop up a modern eagle, or a 513 with a rosewood neck.

 

[Prydogga]

That's one of the greatest SCs Ive ever come across! Love that natural quilt!

They sound really damn good.. its just the bass/treble pups but im liking it..

And funny thing is.. not even a 10 top LOL..

Not the kind of guitar I'd have assosciated with someone called "Corpsegrinder88", but it is a nice guitar. I'd probably change the Epiphone LP tuners, but thats just me.

Actually those are factory.. although i do think it should have had the top locking ones that i see on alot of PRS's . but ?? maybe if a set pops up ill upgrade..

They proably are the factory standard ones, and changing them might be difficult as getting a colour match for the gold hardware could be difficult. However, they are definitely the same ones used on some Epiphone LPs.

Oh yeah. I agree with ya there.. LOL its funny how many of the guitars and parts are made by companies that others talk crap about.. Like Samick for instance.. Those guys are the guitar biz...

posted from the wiki page..

Some other Samick-built guitars are sold under Epiphone, Squier, Washburn, and Hohner brands.

 

[Goatchrist]

Wow, congrats dude! I just don't like those bird inlays, everything else... perfect!

 

[FLGearnut]

wow beautiful score man!

I'm a huge PRS fan and have been for some time now. They are some of the most consistent quality high end guitars ive ever played and they sound phenomenal. Ive currently got two, and they wont be the only two i'll tell ya that much!

LOL Hell yeah im already looking for another one.. I want to get a black charcoal/trans black whatever they call that color. Looks good..

Although the PRS on ebay with the full brazilian neck is tempting..

 

[AcousticMinja]

HOLY MUFFINS BATMAN THATS HOT

oh BTW man. I took another closer look at your guitar. I dont think you know what you have. You said your guitar isnt a 10-top. Well, it might not be marked that way, but the Paua shell PRS logo and wood veneer on your headstock tells me youve got yourself an "artist package" singlecut. Considerably more expensive than your standard non 10-top singlecut buddy.

Yes it is the artist package, Just forgot to add that.. But yes. i am in love with this.. thinkin about takin the day off tomorrow and really getting to know it..

Thanks for all the nice replies peeps.. Oh FL.. lets see yours dude!!! post em up. lets make this the PRS awesome'ness thread!!

 

[FLGearnut]

k well here are the only pictures i have of them at the moment lol

the red one is a 2007 and since i took that pic i replaced the stock pickups with a BKP painkiller/cold sweat combo

the natural one is special to me because it was a high school grad present from my mother. it turns 10 years old this coming year. I replaced the stock pickups in that one with zebra coiled BKP Rebel Yells. Both guitars sound great and play wonderfully.

 

[Corpsegrinder88]

Ohhhh yeah.. What were the stock pups?

 

[FLGearnut]

just regular Dragon II's. They are decent pickups but i just wanted something a little better. I had a singlecut for a short while which i really liked, but had to sell it to pay some bills out of necessity. I wish i had held onto it. I really like the #7 pickups that the singlecuts come with. Great power and punch.
