Yes I was so lucky to come across it, and Lee at Project Music(PM) pointed me to it in preference of the Duesenberg.
I had to pop into then yesterday afternoon as the tremolo bridge was down a bit, silly me I did not try it in store, I think result of a string change to 9.5-46s and also how the previous owner. I had a read online about setup and was not confident doing it myself, so I gave Phil at PM a call and he said pop it in and we will sort it. I have to say they are really great, happy to help, not pushy and great customer service. It is all sorted and works perfect. I asked about the previous owner and they said they sold it to him originally and it had not been used a lot as he had several guitars and it stayed at home, hence why it is so good.

Nice guitar Adrian.
Although it’s a shame you had to let the Rickenbacker go.
I’ve been looking at PRS SE McCarty 594s recently.
Enjoy

Hi Erion
Hope you are good, your last JG Open Mic was impressive, sounds like you have leapt forward technically.
I did not know much about PRS guitars until I looked at this one. From what I have read generally and if what PRS say is true their build and quality control is pretty high even for the models made outside the USA. Having said that the American and Private build ones seem to be made to even higher exacting standards. Mine was a private build, special order(as on the delivery ticket), so a very lucky find. I did a set up check on mine this morning and it was virtually spot on, neck relief perfect, string height 6, 5, 4 perfect, 3, 2, & 1 were 0.5/64" high so tweaked them down, intonation perfect.
The PRS SE generally are very good and the McCarty’s I think are VG

There is a Studio 10 on Reverb which I checked out before buying mine, in case you are interested.
The main benefits of the Studio 10 IMHO is it has greater tonal flexibility, due to the PU config and is made to very exacting standards and a TOP 10 is a one peice body.

Sweet, so where’s the video to show off the sound, and your talents of course?

Nice guitar Adrian, I am learning some Roy Orbison songs and trying to make an excuse to get an Epiphone ES 35 type in cherry red, trouble is I also need a new phone and a new back door.
