I did set up a PRS 594 sc it is tonal sweetness
A friend of mine Jess she’s a good kid she is in her last year of law school,her and my one son and I jam together at times. She came into some cash and with it she scored this beauty it was used. Tweaking the truss rod and tailpiece we found the action that she was comfortable with.
I said let’s plug in to this one watt black star I have in my work area sounded sweet but then my insanity took over hey let’s dime it out open it up. This 53 year old man needs to find out what this magnificent piece of craftsmanship or womanship sounds like.
To the work shed kiddo we plug it in to well first was the thunderbolt made two years before I was born. I cut a lot of grass as kid to buy that amp sorry I ramble my wife and and Jess bailed with our grandson to go get their hair done it’s lonely around the house.
The 58/15 pickups dam tonal beauty from picking with my fingers rolling the pots off for warmth to un palming the pick and rolling pots wide open to get into it. I said geez Jess you scored a beast but hold kiddo we’re gonna set up a back line so I strung carol ann head to cabinet a bass man clone I built and the supro thunderbolt.
Then like a 5 year old I ran back into the house and grabbed my tokai Les Paul reborn and my PRs sc 245 with 59/09 gotta do tonal comparisons. And we bounced riffs off each other I am so happy for her that she scored the guitar. I’m over my collecting phase at 53 and over the years I’ve picked up some awesome guitars all of them were used. And I’m so done impulse buying but I am truly happy for kiddo.
