Although I am not a prs guy and love my old les Paul's, the consistency and quality control , attention to detail overall does seem to be higher with prs. Not nearly as many duds or lemons passed trough their line.
Wow, I was thinking that you were just exaggerating but after seeing the pic, holy shit u were right, that's totally obvious. Have him at least own up to it and offer something towards it. I bet he was using one of those chain link guitar straps or something metal judging at where the chips are...
Nice amp, I have been thinking about getting a hiwatt type amp. Reeves has some cool models and there's also the lower wattage trinity triwatt that can be ordered as a kit which would be fun. Clips of this amp would be great if you get time.
A buddy got the "thunders" which is supposed to be like Johnny thunders tv jr and the neck was HUGE. I mean biggest I have ever played , way bigger then my 58 jr. He had to get a tech to set it up (trussrod adj and intonation) but overall it was nice and sounded good. I think he had to pay extra...
That's awesome that they chose to keep it in the family and let you have it, and what a better way to pay tribute to him by you using his guitar to start playing again.
Nice, I have always wondered what they sound like but never knew of anyone who had tried one. I read that it does a great modded Marshall voice and vh1 tones but was skeptical. Glad to see that it can hang!!
They do make special runs of chambered historics . The 68 ri can easily weigh 10lbs so some custom order chambering. The chambered usually start with c as first digit of serial number .
