I'm a proper guitar nerd, as is Davy, and like him I'm a PRS Guitars player. Unfortunately I have to buy mine and only play out in pubs, but hey nevermind  I think I started playing PRS just before Davy did around 2008, and like him I have settled on the McCarty model as my favourite. They just WORK. Period. Mine have never missed a beat, have been totally dependable and sound fantastic - what more can you ask for? If you ever need a spare here in the UK Davy, just give me a shout  Also do the same if you're ever selling one  I believe this thread (and possibly this sub-forum) may be classed as worthless without pics, so here is my contribution. I name my guitars, so here is: "Dirty Rach"  "Amber"  "Billie Jean" and "Nori"  "The Green Manalishi" and "Sir Charles"  |

Hey Twinfan, so there are more guitars than the two in your profile pic. Beautiful! And I see many headstocks with eagles on them. Must be precious pieces. I guess you play them through a Fender Twin amp? When I find the time, I'll post some pictures of my guitars. They're nothing special - mostly Epiphones and Squiers and no PRS. But they play quite well and I'm just a bloody bedroom guitarist.  |

Not a Fender Twin I'm afraid, I'm a big fan of Dan Boul and his 65 Amps range. As you can see below, I own one or two of them...  |

Alright Dave... That Dirty 100 is absolutely ridiculous. Didn't know about that one of yours!

Thanks Davy - you clearly need to pop round for a PRS geek-fest. As long as you bring Ellie for comparison purposes of course...
The Dirty 100 has just become the #1 for gigs, "Billie Jean" is rehearsals only now as I'm so attached to her I can't risk having anything happen to her in a busy pub!

I think "Billie Jean" is my "Ellie" - there's just something about it!

Just remembered I have this too (currently fitted to Billie Jean for some extra 'mojo') - thanks Davy/Paul/Bernie/Simon!  |

I have a new addition to the collection, and I think Davy will approve. I have a penchant for twins it seems - please meet "Stevie Ray" on the right, along with twin brother "Sir Charles" on his left...  |

Err, yep! Got the second one today, the price was too good to resist.
So that's two down, only 5 more to go. I think they only made 7 with a pernambuco neck...

Also do the same if you're ever selling one
