New Unfashionable Guitar Day

andy1839

So this is my completely unfashionable new PRS, its rubbish because it has birds, which are soooooo last season.
  

Wood Library SC594 10 top, RW neck, faded whale blue.

Yummy.

I love the black paisley case too, even though it weighs more than the guitar.

Hideous! Bin immediately and buy a much better Harley Benton

Don't forget to budget for new pickups and a pro setup. That's when the magic happens.

I love the tailpiece on these.  How are you finding the 58/15s?

I've heard Iron Gears are fucking mental, giving one the sound of a Unicorn on acid plucking a harp made of goblin teeth with its horn.

What, no gratuitous shots of the black paisley case? Terribly disappointing.

Had to be a PRS with that title.
Beast guitar, very jealous

I love them, these are the LT versions, I've got the same ones in my other 594. 

Full sounding, vocal etc all the superlatives you could use for a pickup.

I reckon they're the best (for me) that PRS make. So many tones in them especially with the coil taps. I've never fiddled with my knobs as much as I do on these.

Oooh you’ve made my day! 

Great guitar, and kind of cool case, in a very Laurence Llewelyn Bowen type of way. Will you be changing the curtains and soft furnishings to match it (I feel it’s an essential mod, to mod your home around your guitars when the case is that good)?

Happy NGD.

To be fair, the decor actually kinda matches anyway!

Those curtains aren’t crushed velvet -they’ll have to go!

Those rosewood necks are lovely.  A rosewood necked McCarty is the one guitar that I kind of regret selling.

That's not 'Authentic' 

Get a custom decal in the same font which says 'Charley Fenton'.  It's close enough and it'll keep the legal team off your back.

The RW necks are my favourite thing about PRS guitars.
I haven't tried the Katalox ones yet, but hear they're quite similar.

They seem to have their own profile going on.
I've got two 594s, a SC and a DC, the DC has a maple neck and even though they're meant to be pattern vintage they both feel different.

The RW neck I have on my 513 feels very similar to this one in profile.

Cheers, I've heard that HB are mad keen on knocking off people who rip off their designs.

Fingers crossed I'll be ok.

Screw fashion, that’s beautiful!
