Moondog Wily
Experienced
Here is my main ride. Wanted a PRS for 20+ years just because of their beauty. Finally pulled the trigger in Jan '21. By June of '21, I had 3 of them (McCarty HBII WL, Core CU24 and PS CU24) because they played better than anything else I had ever owned. This one gets 98% of my play time at the moment. It is number one due to a combination of low weight (5.6 lbs - CU24s are 7.2 and 7.6 lbs and start to bug me after about two hours) as well as tones that fit better with my current repertoire ;~)) For those who don't know the PRS line, this is a McCarty 594 Hollowbody II Wood Library spec'd by Ish Guitars with bookmatched front to back flame maple. Rosewood fretboard. Not in this picture are the maple tuner buttons and TRC stained to match body/neck and the ebony control knobs with birds (from Crazy Parts). I will update the pix someday! I did just have my DSLR out yesterday and got some good nature shots, so maybe it is time. Been putting it off because I want to do a "proper" shoot of all my guitars, and that is going to take some setting up that I have yet to alot the time for. I still want all black hardware, but PRS will not sell it at the moment (claiming it is for Private Stock only though some WL runs have been getting the treatment and of course the DW is an all blacked out model) and I would prefer PRS parts. I know there are plenty of Black aftermarket pups I could go with as well (and eventually might), but not a necessity at the moment and I really like these 58/15 LT TCI pups! I just wish they were black.
