Guitar/Bass you'd love to have that no one would expect

[Zounds Perspex]

so cool in so many ways. but...PRS. ouch.

[dubkitty]

just think, though...YOU could be the person to make PRS cool.

[StudioShutIn]

mostly what i want at the moment are odd acoustics. i want a little adorable parlor guitar, like one of those turn-of-the century Washburns or something but playable. but what i really want is the 17" jumbo Larrivee flattop they have down in Santa Cruz...it's a properly-made version of the old Kay-type jumbos, and has low end for days. it's also $1300, and i need $11,000 to keep the house from being foreclosed

a man after my own heart...well, on the odd acoustic bit, anyway

If I could afford it, what I'd really like is a Lame Horse/Jenkins and Sons "Saddle Pal". It's like a cross between a parlour guitar and a wood-bodied dobro
That, and maybe an all-solid-wood classical guitar.

PRS ARE cool.

unless you play anything that isn't djenty metal, douchey blues stuff, shitty jam, etc. etc.

which is a shame because they make undeniably good instruments. I played a Korina SE singlecut and it sounded almost exactly like an acoustic.

[Zounds Perspex]

It plays great, sounds great, but the whole look/brand/vibe is just hurtin'. It goes beyond uncool - I can deal with uncool. It's more that if George W. Bush played guitar, he'd play a PRS, ya know? that's a NO.

i actually really like the PRS Santana and Custom 24 models in the more restrained finishes. i would probably have bought one of the Custom 24 SE models if i wasn't already all in on guitars with humbucking PUs...i played one that sounded great and seemed like it would stand up to pummelling like nobody's business.

i like the pickups the dragon what ever u call em
for them high gain toanz other then that there pretty fag

[sylnau]

I have a PRS CE-22 (with the Dragon pickup) and it's a very good and versatyle guitar, not the standard Gibson or Fender clone... it got it's own vibe.
I've tried the Starla... didn't like it.. no sustane... (maybe a bad one).

Georges W. Bush would play a PRS... WTF? He's too conservative for that kind of axe.

True, it would have to be a strat.

[hclapp219]

I've never been inspired while playing a PRS until a couple weekends ago*. I played an Custom 24 SE that was just awesome. I think the pickups were a lot lower than all the others I've played so it didn't sound a bucket of mud. The new SC245 SE looks nice.

*To be fair, I only ever play the SE models because that is all I'll be able to afford for the next ten years, and then probably the next ten years after that.

I think he's more elitist and out of touch than anything else, and PRS fits the bill.

if he played a Strat, it would be a Masterbuilt Custom Shop Eric Clapton replica or something.

Got the CE-22 used.
The CE-22 have a maple neck and maple top on a mahogany body, so it's not muddy at all.
When you split the pickup sound similar to a telecaster.
That's the only electric guitar I have at the moment.

[Gearmond]

guys.

dubya would play a Gretsch White Falcon.





cuz it looks perdy.
