As much as I will always be grateful with my Eastcoast that some of you will have seen on my first AVOYP postings I was getting increasingly frustrated with it in certain aspects and I’d been lusting after something better so off to Andertons I trotted a couple of weekends ago.
Tried out a Fender Player Plus Strat and also this. As nice as the Stat was this just felt that little bit nice for me. Things I love, the coil split option opens up so many possibilities I will get lost, the balance in my lap just feels right, the fretboard is so easy to move around on and, oh yes the inlays!!
I’m sure I’ll still get a strat at some point becuase, well everyone should own a Fender (?)! But in the meantime all I want to do is pick this up and play
Hi Mark,
So it’s a NGW…Beautiful guitar…(Why mine doesn’t have birds but dots is incomprehensible to me.)…of course you wouldn’t have fallen a bump for a fender player either…but I did read here that Fender, among others, has stood still on many points where other brands have continued to develop … Justin also writes something about that somewhere … the old custom made (I thought) perfect … the new ones are overshadowed by new and different brands.
Greetings and a lot of fun with this beauty
That is a very tasty looking guitar Mark. I do like PRS guitars and I did contemplate one a few months back but opted for a G&L which was cheaper but not as sexy.
Thanks Stefan & all, if it makes you want to play it’s a good guitar in my book!!
First AVOYP with it was up yesterday, hoping to get another one up before the end of the week if I can get my damn voice to work independently from my strumming!!
That a beaut! They’re amazing guitars, I’ve picked a few up but have always come to the conclusion that for myself it would be too much to justify; I’m happy with what I’ve got really but occasionally have serious lust after some of the new models (just like women )!
I’d like a PRS one day but have decided that’s what I’ll get when I feel like I deserve it . I usually buy a fancier instrument when I’m at grade 5. Not doing guitar exams but I’ve told my teacher to let me know when I’m about there!
