I have a PRS just like that one hanging in my shop, but in red. Whoever owned it before beat the daylights out of it. I can't understand why anyone would spend that kind of money on a guitar and then treat it so poorly. |

Played a few of them, and were very nice to play and have a very fast neck, but they are way out of my price range. I'll stick with my cheap and reliable Godin! |
