Title: NGD....
Post by: CODymmoT on October 01, 2018, 10:51:23 PM
I've just added this beauty to my collection. I agonized over a single cut and a custom 24 about 6-7 years ago and the Custom 24 won. Given that I'm entering the 40's later this month, I figured it was high time stop my inner turmoil and get a single cut for my 40th. It's a Tremonti Sig but with 59/09 pickups. I've since re applied the Tremonti truss rod cover  and may consider putting the original pickups back in but have to say the 59/09's sound amazing.

Very nice.   I'm not a big PRS fan, but I sure wouldn't mind owning one.

That is a beautiful guitar! I acquired my sc58 in similar fashion for my 31st bday. Congratulations and happy early birthday.

That's beautiful.  Those are really nice guitars.  I really enjoy my SC-245.

NICE! I plan to acquire a nice PRS in the medium term.

My favorite part is this, however  ;D :

That looks great I'd like to try a set of 59/09s.  I've got some 57/08s in my ce22 and absolutely love them.

Wow, that's a nice guitar :) I owned a McCarty once, impeccable build quality but it was ill-balanced (bottom heavy). It seemed a bit of an accident, as most PRSes seem well balanced.

I really like the smooth and subtle burst on yours!

I truly believe they are the best humbucker i have ever played. I bought my sc58 mainly because of the 57/08s and the color. Its got be pretty.

That is gorgeous.  I've weened down my Singlecut collection to 4 (2 X 250, 1X245, and an SC Trem), but they are fantastic guitars.

I really like them. I have HFS/vintage bass in my custom 24 and they also rule. I'm sure the build quality of PRS plays a big part too.
