Private Stock Friday

[themike]

We can add a maple faceplate to your amp, but in order not to cut into the "Artist package" area, the colors are limited. If you have paisley covering, we can do a Black Gold faceplate or if your amp has a tolex cover, we can do a Charcoal faceplate. If you have a CAD amp, we will expand the color pallett a bit.

We don't accept any incoming guitars or amps during the Experience, the place is too crazy to organize the receiving process. The last drop off date is Monday before the Experience.

I can hear a stampede of people shipping amps to PTC now! haha

WOW! That sunburst is killer. What color is that?

I'm probably the only one, but I'm just not digging the Firebird inlays...too cartoonish to me. However, that top and finish are absolutely fantastic! What is that finish called?

I really like the Firebirds but they're the kind of inlays that would only match with a few particular finishes, although they contrast excellently with the dark wood of the fretboards.

Love the look of the PRS amps!!! Hate amps that look like a black box... They should be loud and proud!

This thread is like crack.

[Shawn@PRS]

Man, you people are relentless!

Ok, here's a guit for you Tim. It is a Collection prototype, but now it's used as a pickup tester! (no lie) I feel sorry for Len Johnson, he has to play guitars like this all day long!



I went back upstairs to photo the black paisley in a little more detail and stumbled across this



And finally Black Paisley

[Roddie]

Love that black paisley.

[Brad737]

God, what a piece of crap! Len really needs a proper guitar to test pickups on. Tell you what, I'll come by and take that eyesore away for you next time I swing through BWI. You're welcome...

So what does Len think of the narrowfield 408 pu?

[Sekunda]

Wow. That is all. Thanks for the Friday fix Shawn!

I really like the variety in this thread, Shawn.

[Shawn@PRS]

So what does Len think of the narrowfield 408 pu?

The treble pup in this guitar is simply amazing. It has plenty of growl in humbucker mode, but when in single coil mode it has true Tele-like spank. Certainly the most convincing single coil tones I've ever heard from a split humbucker.

Oh my Shawn...has anyone ever told you that you are the man. Paul should give you a raise , just sayin

I'd love to be the person to test all day and see art take form.

Today we show some love to the PRS Amp Department.
Doug, Jason and everyone in "Amps" have been making some amazing sounding amps, now let's see how beautiful they are.

Earth Tone Goodness


Is that black paisley? Oh my!

Oh yes please on both. I am getting incredibly close to ordering a PRS amp. I think Black Paisley sealed the deal.

I'm sorry, did you say something?

[Hopeful Sinner]

Black... Paisley... Well played PRS Guitars. Well played...

Now I just need a half dozen Black Paisley Cases, Black Paisley Straps and all my amps & cabs recovered!!!

[Goldtop]

Thanks Shawn. This thread just keeps getting better and better.

I dig this pic. As discussed on Brad737's recent thread (the VR/BAM version) I think binding combined with the thinner purfling looks classy! I spec'ed my last two guitars that way, Natural Maple Binding, one with Paua Purfling (that one also has purfling on the Body) and the other with MOP purling (no purfling on the body on that one).

Of course being Ted Club President, I am highly biased towards having binding on my PRS Guitars, and now I am highly addicted to the Natural Maple variety, have two like that now, two inbound within couple of weeks, and two more just put in the oven!

Can't wait to see how the new ones with the purfling added turn out!

I like that pic, too. I don't ordinarily go for that much bling, but with the natural color, that guitar reminds me of a classic acoustic, and it really looks "right."

It's funny, when I got the SC58 last year with the cream binding, I was neutral about it. But it's grown on me, and I've come to like it a lot. I was glad the Sig came with it. Maple's nice, too. Have had it on an acoustic.

Bonus with the CAD paisley amps - your wife will probably actually like it!

My wife called amps 'black boxes'. But she likes my paisley/red tiger amp.

[Nodealcreel]

Just when I thought my lust for a new PRS was over...along came that "tester"! WOW! Beautiful......

Good point right there.
