Looks awesome. Interesting inlays. Never really seen such colourful abalone/pearl. What material is it?

Very nice!

[ So if PRS goes to great lengths, why do all their guitars sound 'different' as you say? Can you truly say that two PRS of the same make, composition, finish, hardware, and electronics one serial apart will sound the same? Given your logic, what then makes a SE sound different from a USA?]

[Wrong.  My ears are perfectly fine unlike yours which are deaf since birth.]

[You remind me of Aussies who are too full of themselves even if they are in a foreign country.]

1) I think you missed my point entirely.
2) What?? 
3) Not usually an Aussie trait. Perhaps i'm an exception.

In Psychology that is called projection. He is actually describing himself lol. 

Psychological projection is a theory in psychology in which humans defend themselves against their own unconscious impulses or qualities (both positive and negative) by denying their existence in themselves while attributing them to others.[1] For example, a person who is habitually rude may constantly accuse other people of being rude. It incorporates blame shifting.

Actually, that's a majority trait of both aussies and filipinos.
When i'm in new york, most americans i know rants about aussies because of that trait.
When i'm at other asian countries, they rant about us filipinos because of that trait(to the extent that they call us peenoise).
Even i myself a filipino find filipinos full of themselves. Just look at our president(oops flame suit on!).
Well in reality, we have sucky GDP and tourism standing. We have sucky defense for our country.
We have sucky almost  everything. We have humility issues. Anyway.. Back to PRS!

I gas for an sc594!

Anyone here get to try out the SE Zach Myers model? That price tag and Trampas Green finish are calling out to me...

I haven't personally tried one, but I love the look of them. From.what I've seen ( limited to YouTube reviews) look and sound great. one of the reviewers had trouble keeping it in tune. Specifically the g string. Could just be his nut/string combo though. IMO you can't really go wrong. The Korean PRS are made by the highest tier third party guitar manufacturer.

Sounds like you're running out of comebacks hahaha. Try harder OAS!

So, saan na ang PRS mo?

[firemodel55]

I'm not concerned about the book matching. It seems.... Okay. What I am concerned with is the figuring towards the outer edges on the carve. You can see that it looses definition and flame. This doesn't look like a 10 top. The seller may have been ripping you off man.

Really?  Not a 10 top?  You are trying to hard to discredit PRS.

[rnodern]

Okay, sure it's a 10. From the pictures there's definitely dead spots. Probably need a better camera or angle. PS. It's a 91. Not a 93. Could have sworn you said it was a 93.

Why would I post my PRSs here just to be humiliated by you? Haha. Keep your dead-sounding fingers away from my 98% guitars hahaha

That 10 top seriously needs some Novu Hair. So many bald spots. 

[rowley75]

Imo, 10 tops aren't THAT perfect. That's why they have artist package, wood library and private stock.

They're supposed to have clearly defined figure across the entire top. Their website says:

A very small percent of the maple trees cut in North America are actually figured. To make "10-Top" status, a PRS top must have clearly defined figure across its entire top with no "dead" spots. A guitar designated as a 10-Top will usually have a small "10" written on the back of the headstock in the upper right corner. Some of our earlier guitars have the "10" stamped into the finish in the same position

I've seen lackluster 10 tops thru the years. Guitar center comes to mind. Imo they get not so figured 10 tops all the time.

My mistake...  Its a 91.  I just remembered that 1993 was the year they closed the old plant.

Wala ka naman PRS.  Kulang kulang and budget mo para magyabang.

+1.  I agree.  For example, rnodern's 10 top is not that figured too.  I have seen better 10 tops than his.

There are unquestionably better 10 tops than the 10 tops I own. I mean, look at this one for example. The figure on this one got painted the fuq over

So this one isn't that figured?
