Not going anywhere...81 LP Custom Silverburst

 

[vchizzle]

My 1st PRS - '96 custom 22.
Oddly, its my least favorite PRS I own as far as tone and feel. But, for sentimental reasons, I'll never let it go. Hell, I won't even gig it anymore. Don't get me wrong, it sounds great. I just prefer a thicker body and thicker neck than the wide thin that's on it.

 

[Viper]

Out of the many guitars I've had in ten years, I can't sell this one. Its perfect for me in every way.

 

[Szar]

This one, it sounds like an opera singer

My GOD! What finish is that? It makes my loins quiver!

 

[boof]

a 91 PRS

This one, it sounds like an opera singer

My GOD! What finish is that? It makes my loins quiver!

me too, its a nitro-cellulose finish thats so thin there are tiny spots in the flame where you can almost see wood. I swear, there are times playing it with some volume where you can feel it breathing

a 91 PRS

Wow, I love that top

I always thought the same thing about your modern eagle when I see your avatar. I assume its a modern eagle from the headstock. the top on mine isnt anything special really run of the mill. its just starting to show a bit of fading after almost 18 years

 

[JTyson]

I think the fact that yours came from the Virginia Avenue plant makes it much cooler than just run of the mill, those were more hand-done than the latter stuff. I had a ltd ed. that came from there, it was one of my favs of all time. Brad has it now. I was not fond of the tuners from that era, but I loved that guitar. The top on yours is only gonna get better with time, I wish my ME was that color, I'm not a big fan of blue, but I love that one

Even if you are never selling it, if you are ever selling it, hit me up FIRST. I will throw all my shit at you as a trade. God DAMN! That axe is perfect, the green.....uugh....I'm gonna have a hell of a time trying to find one close to that!

It actually started out to be faded blue-jean, but its kinda morphed into a color all its own. It does kinda look greenish in that pic. the finish is so thin, it seems to age quickly ( I guess ) When I got it, it was new, but already 4-5 years old. Had been in a dealer's office stash all that time. I wont be getting rid of it, its the most resonant guitar I've ever played. I never really thought that was too big a deal until I played this one, it wasent plugged in the first time I played it, but I could feel it as well as hear it, never had anything like it. I played one of the new ME's 3 weeks ago, they are prettier, but not as resonant. My McCartys (which I love) are pretty resonant, if you put your ears near (6") from the headstock, you can hear them resonate, but this one, you can hear just sitting down with it, I guess its the Brazilian RW neck, and the finish being so thin. I caught the dealer in a bind, and got lucky. I had to let go of a ton of stuff to get it, but I have been very happy with it.

My '93 Fender MIM strat. My first Electric guitar. I love that strat, too much sentamental value to let it go. It just feels like home when I play her. Its the sunburst on the left with the hot rails in the bridge.

 

[Zachman]

I've had this one for 30 years now (Original owner). My Great Grandmother bought this for me, and barring needing some organs transplanted, this stays

 

[Mailman1971]

I have had this one for a LOOOONG time.
Bought it when I was stationed in Japan in the early 90's.
KILLER PRIME.

nah, only like $4950 new They don't really lose much value either, but you could pick up a used one a little cheaper.
