This was offered by ZZounds that in year in both iterations. I know because I bought the one with the 490 pickups. Its a fantastic player and is unique with 24 frets.
I kept it about six months. It was really good quality. I didn't really care for the pickups. I ended up selling it and getting a Gibson Les Paul custom instead. It wasn't uncomfortable sitting down, but it was on the heavy side. Hope that helps you!
The last guitar I purchased was an expensive Knaggs SSC and it was shipped in its case and inside two boxes with the word FRAGILE all over the box so that was fine, however, when I went out to meet the Fed Ex delivery guy I walked in to his truck to watch him look for it and there was all kinds of heavy boxes and packages on top of it, to the point where he thought it wasn’t on his truck. I asked him to please take another look as tracking numbers say it’s on his truck and out to be delivered. He finally found it and luckily the guitar and case are fine but damn those guys do not respect any packages.
I had to do the same thing. Also the black cherry is amazing. That’s also the color I picked and I was able to find an amazing looking top. Also fretwork is amazing playability is great. Can’t believe the quality of this guitar for $569. they’re great, everyone get one while you can for that price
Congrats!!! Sweet guitar color choice Brian, I would have pick the same color!!🤘🏻🎸👍🏻. Nice mod choices too, did you think about upgrading the PRS block? Other than that, sweet guitar to hang onto and play for many years.
You dont need to take out the saddles. Just loose the adjustement screw enough to be abble to flip them in their side, instead of completely remove them😉
The NEW neck and bridge pickups my be very different from the old one and need very different adjustments. If they are just like the old pickups... maybe no change. But if either pickup that is new is different the adjustment will be new....
Oh man, my first impression thoughts were it was packed well, that guitar just floating in all that bubble wrap. Glad it was delivered ok. Good sound, nice playing.
