Members cybersecretary Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 they are so well made and as i have said in other posts, my Mira suits me. It is small, and so am I at 110#. I can't say enough about it... 5 years ago, when looking for a better guitar i was all vintage, old gibson/ fender...I totally forgot about checking out PRS.... I "Re- discovered" PRS, broke down, bought a new Mira a year ago and the other guitars hardly ever get played....I have an 06 tele aniversary that i really thought would be my main guitar....NOT...don't get me wrong, it is really nice and all, but something about it bites. The pups are really hot, Certain songs cry for the tele, and my gibson L6s is awesome for other tunes, but for lead and all around playing, the PRS is smooth smooth smooth to play and the new birds are subtle.. ..now for a starla! or something with a tremolo . I need to learn how to use one tastefully... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members 211dave112 Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 And just piss you off little more here's 2 that I own. :poke: but your PRS in the pic you posted are more understated than the typical PRS flame maple plastic look. Lose the sticker and I'd definitely play the one on the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Roy Brooks Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 If you live in Maryland it is almost inevitable that you will see lots of Paul Reed Smith guitars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Elias Graves Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 I'll take a Mira. EG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members megaboogie Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 I love mine, my CU22 doesn't sound as huge as my LP but it's got a real nice tone with versatility, plus it feels and plays better. When I play out I find myself brining PRS most of the times. I'd someday love to get a singlecut too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Alecto Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 I never get tired of looking at this: :love::love:Would love to try one, but I haven't seen any in stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members _pete_ Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 I see more Teles and Les Pauls these days. Before that it was Strats. I love my PRS though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TrickyBoy Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 I have two. I must admit that I feel a little pretentious playing them. But unlike a lot of other flashy expensive things, they're incredibly good at what they were designed to do. Why would you feel pretentious? That's silly! Anyway, about 4 years ago when I went guitar shopping I tried out PRS's and found that I was unimpressed. I just like the feel of Fender's better. That being said, they are beautiful guitars and the people that I know who have them, love them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jealousblues Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 well I am thinking about selling mine its silver though, so maybe it wont be sooo 2000's like the rest ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members headstash Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 You see a lot of them because PRS makes some of the finest guitars available. Their QC is second to none, they use the finest materials and designed to be super versitile. If I could afford one, I'd happily be playing a Mira or CU22.

Members this is paul Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 There is a sweet used Custom 22 by me that I want to check out. I was way into this other one I played, but it was tremelo and I prefer stop tail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vintage55 Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 Two other guys (Andrew and Lee) used PRS acoustics last night on American Idol, as well. Must be some kind of arrangement made... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members snowaie Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 If you live in Maryland it is almost inevitable that you will see lots of Paul Reed Smith guitars.True. I see them every day in person, met PRS, jammed with him, and his factory is 5 minute car ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Electric Monk Posted March 31, 2010 Members Share Posted March 31, 2010 Since when was originality a drawback in choosing a particular guitar brand? I mean, by that logic.... well, the guitar industry sure as hell wouldn't be how it is. To say the least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members tp4mybunghol Posted April 1, 2010 Members Share Posted April 1, 2010 I think they're fantastic. The playability and craftsmanship is unparalleled. I know some aren't crazy about the pickups (I them), you can always swap out. Plus, I think people who have never played them want to compare them to LP's or strats, but they have their own sound.

Members zantor9 Posted April 1, 2010 Members Share Posted April 1, 2010 Then how about Opeth, Primus, Porcupine Tree, Al Di Meola and countless of others who actually have the skill and musical knowledge? (except for Larry Lalonde...he's quite debatable...) Bump for this comment i love Opeth. PRS is decent i just dont needa buy a $2000 with a set neck that has a fixed bridge w/ tremolo Yes that means im not too fond of Gibson or Fender either...i guess that makes me one in a hundred for this forum :poke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members deadllama Posted April 1, 2010 Members Share Posted April 1, 2010 I've played a couple of them, and I thought they played really well, but I don't know that I'd ever buy one.
