Hi Folks,

a few weeks ago I bought a PRS. Those things have been my favorite guitars since I got my first mail-order-catalogue when I was 12 years old, and now finally I managed to get my hands on one. Even though I always loved the aesthetics of PRS', I never found one that could completely justify it's price.
This one tho stunned me in the moment I laid my hands on it. Once I played it, I knew I had to buy it, one could say it was my personal "Harry Potter gets his wand"-moment.
I totally love it. My other guitars don't stand a chance against it. It plays great, sounds great, looks great. Couldn't be happier. :lowdown:
But enough talk, here are some pics:

How about a normal angle pic of the front of the guitar so we can get a better look at that flame?

@Orandje:
I could justify it out of two reasons:
1. I got it for about 2k less. It's part of a mini-series for Meinl's 60th anniversary, and this one has artist-grade wood on it.
2. One of the qualities I demand of any guitar over 2000 Euros is to stun me. The PRS I've played before simply didn't to that, so I could not justify buying one. :D

Congrats on the new guitar. I wish we could get a decent look at it. Artist-grade wood though? Must be nice I guess.

Well I guess I should make a picture where you can see the whole guitar, eh?
I'll be doing that tomorrow, we don't have decent daylight here anymore.

I notice that the trem doesn't have much space beneath it. Is that how they are doing all of the new ones or is it just this model in particular?

That's awesome, very nice score :yesway: Looks like a great top on that one.

That would be a setup decision, you can raise the trem to give more space to pull up and lower the saddles.
