I've run across them on the internet a couple times. They are made in Vancouver, according to their website. (Unless that is a cover up). Anyway, they look interesting. http://www.prestigeguitars.com/ They have a lineup of solid body guitars that appear very well made. Their elite lists for $2200 USD approx, but I see them on eBay for about half that. I was just curious if anyone has had any experience with them. bbach Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.
Bbach1 Posted June 16, 2006 Author Posted June 16, 2006 Originally posted by Guitarzan: your on a Canadian kick aren't you? Well I live right up here by Canada. In fact, most people in the US think ND is part of Canada. bbach Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.
picker Posted June 16, 2006 Posted June 16, 2006 I like the look of the Wilde Bass, kinda like Prince's Rusan Cloud guitar got pregnant or something. Always remember that you are unique. Just like everyone else.
Guitarzan Posted June 16, 2006 Posted June 16, 2006 the body has a very Jay Turser LP shape. i wonder if they are actually MADE in canada. it says "designed, conceived and based in canada".. but they don't actually say MADE in Canada. i wonder if it is a foreign made guitar? i mentioned Jay Turser because it is almost exactly the shape and neck position of thier LP models. check it out.. hmmmmm http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=193274 rock it, i will
Guitarzan Posted June 16, 2006 Posted June 16, 2006 if it is indeed a foreign made guitar i would like them to state it. it looks like a nice guitar but if they are not made here why the high price? nothing wrong with contracted work if it is upfront. http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=193274 rock it, i will
The Big G Posted June 16, 2006 Posted June 16, 2006 Some of them look pretty good guitars, I like the musician model (Gretsch like, I am a real sucker for that style) But as Zan says you want to know where its made etc.... before you part with $2000 Sorry no real help Joe Love life, some twists and turns are more painful than others, but love life..... http://www.soundclick.com/bands/pagemusic.cfm?bandID=592101

They list contact info on their website, so you could just call & ask them. <> For sure, & that Turser shape is a copy of something else, like a an LTD or Schecter. I've seen it before.

Bbach1 Posted June 18, 2006 Author Posted June 18, 2006 Originally posted by Guitarzan: any word yet? No response from the seller. I also emailed Prestige guitars and no answer from them yet either. Course, it was a Friday and they may not be back til Monday. bbach Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.
gorgio Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 I wrote to the seller, He told me that he's posting a couple time twice a month with those prestige model. He just sold two of them at 600 dollars each. I'm also trying to get a hold of the manufacturer. We'll see later
