Members Sonnilon Posted June 18, 2006 Members Share Posted June 18, 2006 If it had a tune-o-matic bridge instead of that annoying wrap-around, I'd probably have one myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's pretty much the only part I don't like about mine. The strings feel loose, which is also my least favorite part of most PRS guitars.

Members kevin barrett Posted June 20, 2006 Members Share Posted June 20, 2006 These Stratosonics and Telesonics have the Gibson scale length 24 3/4 .Nice guitars, soft feel . Can you downtune Gibsons a half step or more? Anybody? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members angus_old Posted June 20, 2006 Members Share Posted June 20, 2006 1 step is probably the limit. beyond that you could switch to heavier strings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members blind radish Posted June 20, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 20, 2006 I played one in GC about a year ago and fell in love light, very responsive and not unlike a GIBBY, but with a familiar strat feel . The tone chambers make it really lively hope this one is the same four days to Mr. Brown visit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
