I get the symbolism. I get the desire to own a rarity. But, it is still another guitar that I probably would not play and would have to eventually cull - perhaps at a loss....

For me it would be about the color scheme, I could use its magical properties to "chant down Babylon".

thank you all for your assistance and help regarding the prs santana rasta, I received a lot of information from you guys that I had no idea about, I learned a lot and I really appreciate your time & attention. I got all the information I wanted and please keep up the good work in this forum, IŽll stick around for sure.
Cheers.

I do like the Rasta's shown above, but my favourite Rasta PRS would be this one:

That's a nice and probably expensive attempt on the theme. Too bad they got it wrong. The colors always have to read green, gold and red from left to right.
Depends on from what point on the guitar you are looking at....the center part does...and they reversed it for symmetry...looks good to me if you look at it from the middle.Quote:

I kinda like that billy SE very bare-bones vibe to it, excluding the weird green inlay, if it was just green dots/moons then it'd be much better =3
Learn something new every day - I had no idea that PRS made bongo stands.

In retrospect, one of the biggest disappintments, sales wise, was the PS Howard Leese Golden Eagle replica. It took a long time for dealers to move the stock and I noticed many languishing on eBay for a long time. I wish I hadn't traded my #001/100 from that run.
Replica guitars are weird enough, but I think the decision to duplicate the plug in the top like the original was a deal breaker for a lot of people.Quote:

Yeah....and Howie will not trade me his original version either. :mad:Quote:

Cheer up Sergio, to the best of my knowledge no more than 12 Santana Tri-color Custom 24's were made. So that leaves 11 for you!:biggrin:Quote:
