Boy do I get that. A few years back, was not in the market for any guitar….. till I saw the blue Strat online @ Sweetwater. And I bought it. Glad I did.

I only see guitars I want, when I have no funds for them..
Or after making a purchase and the deal of the century shows itself.
Just my luck I suppose.

 

[smitty_p]

Hmmm...I think I need a V.

 

[JohnnyGoo]

Yes you do Smitty

 

[ibmorjamn]

I have seen several harpoon style headstocks and this one is exactly what I envision plus single bridge. It’s a chug machine from the looks of it. I don’t usually buy signature guitars.

 

[JohnnyGoo]

Lookin at that white Washburn V makes me want one myself.

Yeah , that’s about right for me to. The guy is asking $1100. Even if it was $900 I would probably pass. I could build it for less.

It is a good looking guitar and I like that it has no inlays on the board.

I think I need a V.

It’s catching. Me too.

Watching this one. It might have to be here for Christmas…

I just about pulled the trigger on this PRS yesterday but at 10.2 pounds no, my 1972 Les Paul Custom 1954 LE is 0ver 11 pounds
The PRS has Brazilian neck and fingerboard that's a thing of the past.

You've GOT to be kidding. I am so jealous of Don O. Note that's a Custom by the way.

Your name was also mentioned in the thread about what forum members guitar would you want to have.

I love this color so much. But I have to say, not a big fan of quilted maple (or flamed for that matter) and I find the one-piece look very odd and offputting. Give me this thing with a 2-piece plaintop and we're cooking with gas.

The quilt on a LP is what is so unusual, it's what I like about it! Otherwise it is just a plain top with a different finish.
To me.
Mmmmm quilty as charged!
