Xplorer Posted June 21, 2006 Posted June 21, 2006 It's a very nice guitar dude. I'm sure you'd be happy with it, but like any guitar, you really need to wail on it for awhile first. You never know if you'll like the neck, frets, tone, or even how it positions when you play sitting down until you play one. PRS are a reputable company. I'm sure it's a decent guitar for the price. Don't forget to check out other manufacturers also. Maybe Schecter or Epiphone? What a horrible night to have a curse.
musicalhair Posted June 21, 2006 Posted June 21, 2006 I think it would be fine, I'm just glad I didn't click on it to see a Berhinger or some other peice of crap. But if it is a Billy Martin model, shouldn't it have pinstripes and a number 1 on it, and maybe a switch where you could control a foot to kick dirt at the club owner at home plate? And does anyone get what I'm talking about? check out some comedy I've done: http://louhasspoken.tumblr.com/ My Unitarian Jihad Name: Brother Broadsword of Enlightened Compassion.

caprae Posted June 21, 2006 Posted June 21, 2006 I know the standard dual humbucker PRS SE guitars are very nice so this should follow suite. Raise your children and spoil your grandchildren. Spoil your children and raise your grandchildren.
Scott Fraser Posted June 21, 2006 Posted June 21, 2006 <> And for about $50 more you can get a maple topped PRS SE Custom that, to my ears, is a bit more versatile & tonally complex than the solid mahogony ones. Scott Fraser Scott Fraser

And does anyone get what I'm talking about? I get it. I'm not very familiar with the Korean PRS' but the US models are fantastic. I'd say, play the guitar and if you like it, you can't go wrong with a PRS. I would also explore the maple-capped model. Depending on what you're looking for, I think the tone is better.

caprae Posted June 21, 2006 Posted June 21, 2006 I know a very good Strat player who worked at a guitar store - had his choice of pretty much anything (he could afford) and he bought the dual humbucker PRS SE. Said he gigged with it all the time when he needed the humbuckers. Otherwise he used his Strat. Raise your children and spoil your grandchildren. Spoil your children and raise your grandchildren.

And does anyone get what I'm talking about? Billy Martin!!! Billy Ball!!! He is the one responsible for making George S. who he is today. Not your most orthodoxed method of manageing but very effective. It's a shame we lost him to a car accident. He was and would have continued to be good for the game. Dodger Fan!!! Fernando If you can't say it in 12 bars... then it can't be said!
Ol Boy Rivers Posted June 21, 2006 Posted June 21, 2006 Allright. The PRS Billy martin guitar is an OK guitar. Its not the exact of his though. His has higher quality wood and a better set of pickups as well as a few cosmetics. THIS PRS has upgraded pickups ( Not as good as his ) And standerd wood with the jet-black finish and the inlay of that green bat. Quality...Pretty much anything by PRS is going to be decent, But it IS a artist series...But that price is what im worried about. I say go for it...Hell why not. Duely on the PRS is allways a good thing, I fot YE! Never trouble trouble till' trouble troubles you.

musicalhair Posted June 21, 2006 Posted June 21, 2006 Hey Durockrolly, that is cool coming from a dodger fan. Yeah for our freinds across the pond Billy Martin was the manager for the Yankees when I was in high school. When I was young--when Ralph Houk was the manager-- I didn't want to be a baseball player growing up I wanted to be the manager. Billy Martin was like my hero. He had major issues, but George constantly hiring and firing him didn't help. Right on MDRS! Go Jankees as they say in the bleachers when they aren't chanting foul chants at the other teams outfeild. check out some comedy I've done: http://louhasspoken.tumblr.com/ My Unitarian Jihad Name: Brother Broadsword of Enlightened Compassion.
hotshot Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 If you go for the maple capped one you might not regret it in the future, as with the BillyMartin is more of a novelty or gimmickey and you might look upon it in the future that way. But the maple capped one might just be something you hold onto. Help me out by clicking here
