Frets99 Posted January 2, 2010 Share Posted January 2, 2010 Of that group, I'd say the Peavey is the best guitar hands down but I haven't played the ones your looking at. From my memory of the TTM thread, anything you trade it for ought to be an improvement... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members super56k Posted January 2, 2010 Members Share Posted January 2, 2010 I would probably go for the Peavey at your local shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Rose Pickups Posted January 2, 2010 Members Share Posted January 2, 2010 so i'm GASing for a PRS,preferably a carved top...no way in hell i can afford one. i've got an offer of an agile ps-100 vintage cherry for my TTM but then there's the vinyard what would you do I like Vineyard guitars, and they seem to be made out of some nice basswood. An aquaintance of mine, Mel Booker, plays and sells Vineyards from his store in Southern Cal. He switched from Michael Kellys to Vineyards, and I think he did it because of the tonal range of basswood. I absolutely LOVE my Michael Kelly Hourglass though. You can find these still even though they are discontinued. Found mine for 250 bucks. Here is mine, it is one of those guitars that came with instant MOJO.

Members Vintage55 Posted January 2, 2010 Members Share Posted January 2, 2010 I saw these in a recent guitar player mag.http://cgi.ebay.com/MVG-custom-guitar-Flame-maple-top-set-neck-gotoh_W0QQitemZ120450065865QQcmdZViewItemQQptZGuitar?hash=item1c0b6225c9Miami Vintage Guitars.Anyone heard of them? I've been seriously considering one of their tele's, but you don't want to buy off eBay. That same guitar is $299 on their website, $200 less than the eBay price.

Members diceman1000 Posted January 2, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 2, 2010 well the peavey isn't the usa like i thought it was, it's the exp. i just went to the shop and checked it out. it plays awsome though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Norcal_GIT_r Posted January 2, 2010 Members Share Posted January 2, 2010 I'd still go with the Peavey if it plays the way you want and you do like it.I'm not familiar with middle guitar. The few Agiles I've played, were pretty nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ashasha Posted January 2, 2010 Members Share Posted January 2, 2010 It's going to be tough finding a US made instrument in the same value range as the TTM and if you did it's probably not going to be great.I know that you've got some ideas on a PRS style guitar and are looking for USA, but you may want to do a quick search on e-Bay for a Samick Ultramtic (probably a UM3). I owned one for a while and it was a good guitar. Extremely well built for a MIK guitar (even though that's kind of the norm these days) and the neck was phenomenal.I modded it so the GK-2a pickup, coil split switches, 13 pin jack and concentric pot isn't standard.

Members diceman1000 Posted January 2, 2010 Author Members Share Posted January 2, 2010 oh no, country of origin is not an issue at all, just gotta make up my mind. a fellow forumite has offered a PRS SE Soapbar II also. it's between that and the peavey, of course, the shop that has the peavey said they're interested in my fender power chorus too... maybe i'll end up with both:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bdegrande Posted January 3, 2010 Members Share Posted January 3, 2010 The Peavey would be my first choice, they are excellent value for money in any price range. The PRS Soapbar II would give you some different sounds with the P-90s, so if you can do a trade for both, so much the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members soliloquy Posted January 3, 2010 Members Share Posted January 3, 2010 PEAVEY!!! all the way!!! peavey really makes great guitars that are really hard to beat! ses are over priced and fairly ugly with their flat tops or if you can, try finding an Agile PS924. those would be even closer to the prs look.
