Members PaulSter Posted January 9, 2009 Members Share Posted January 9, 2009 What a great sounding and great looking guitar. That's a great demo. The bigsby really looks at home on it. I've only had one guitar with a bigsby, and it was always in the way for me. See how he is always reaching around the arm? Easy to get used to for most, but I never got used to it. :-( Anyway-- I really like the vintage vibe of these Starlas, Miras, and the SC245 (might there be a NGD for me upcoming?

Members gasolinefight Posted January 9, 2009 Members Share Posted January 9, 2009 Those are just a thing of beauty. I'd love to get one and a mira. The only problem is that PRS are too expensive in canada, especially now that the dollar is back down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Tidal Rhythm Posted January 9, 2009 Members Share Posted January 9, 2009 The only thing that puzzles me is why does the bigsby-less Mira come with locking tuners and the bigsby Starla model come with non-locking tuners? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members PaulSter Posted January 9, 2009 Members Share Posted January 9, 2009 The only thing that puzzles me is why does the bigsby-less Mira come with locking tuners and the bigsby Starla model come with non-locking tuners? The Kluson tuners on the Starla are a nod to its vintage-vibe target. The SC245 has them too, while the SC250 (the 'modern' SC version) has locking tuners. I think that since the Bigsby trem doesn't really move the string aggressively over the nut, that it can still be very stable in holding tune w/o the locking tuners. My pre-lawsuit SC also has Klusons (as they always keep the LP legacy in mind). PaulS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
