Rocco_Crocco Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Blue guitars are so under-rated. Congrats! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aleclee Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Lovely. PRS makes a great guitar! I've owned a bunch over the years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDaveDaveDave Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 NICE!!! That's a Super Eagle, isn't it? Since getting my Modern Eagle last year, it's about all I play, except for its stunt-double, an SE Semi Hollowbody, but only to protect my prrecious... no one take my PRECIOUS! ;-) Congrats! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glideman Posted May 25, 2017 Author Share Posted May 25, 2017 Thanks, guys! It's a 408.Bought it from a guy in Nebraska for a great price. I've owned a bunch of PRS guitars over the years. After playing it all afternoon, it's becoming one of my favorite models.My wife may let me spend my leave check on a Private Stock when I retire in a year and a half!

tedulrich Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 Beautiful instrument. After years of wanting a PRS, I finally got my first, an S2 Satin 24 last year and I haven't looked back. It's like it was made just for all of my quirky needs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinon2 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Besides not blue... Well it's a blue burst... that should be good for half-credit, lol. It's a custom piece made by a guy named Woody Phifer. He's got a small shop in Phoenicia NY, up in the Catskills. Makes a lot of arch tops, too. He always finds beautiful wood... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glideman Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 I see blue around the edges for the burst. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangha Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Wooohoooooooo!!! Came in today! That's a looker and a player you got there my friend. Stunning guitar. Congrats! To this day I still hold on to my first and only PRS a 10 top Brazilian limited edition in black grey. I always wanted one with a Brazilian rosewood fretboard but private stock was too expensive , then they made 500 of these and I managed to snag one. My fav to this day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glideman Posted May 27, 2017 Author Share Posted May 27, 2017 Like the 408 so much I'm probably buying this 509... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zooey Posted May 27, 2017 Share Posted May 27, 2017 I must be the only person in the world who doesn't really like PRSs. Total respect for their craftsmanship, and the best ones look gorgeous, but every time I've played one, I just didn't care that much for the feel of the neck, or the sound. Not sure what's wrong with me. That said, if you're thinking about this sort of thing glideman, you should check out the 513. EDIT: If you can find one, just saw on their site it's discontinued. On paper, that's my guitar - I love wiring with lots of possibilities - but I played one locally, and see above, it just wasn't for me.

glideman Posted May 27, 2017 Author Share Posted May 27, 2017 I had a 513. I like the 509 switching better. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lungho Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 All I can say is she is simply breathtaking! Last year I purchased a Custom 24. Pattern thin neck and an ebony fretboard. It easily surpasses my other guitars in playability. The fit and finish is better than my top shelf strats and custom shop ESP. I play in two vastly different bands and the guitar is versatile enough to be my #1 in both. Congrats! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
