All of them.
even the GRS models?

What do you think of the DGT, Conway? Ever tried one? I like the idea of the thicker body.
Have you been talking to Troy?! The DGT is one model I've never tried.

Cut out some tiger print and stick it on the front, get a crayon and draw some birds on the neck...job done. And you saved yourself a fortune that you can now spend on red wine or spare parts for the Alfa ;-)

Somebody help me out here...I don't get the GRS string substitution. I've tried Wikipedia disambiguation

Is it really a reference to a TV channel in Texas?

I liked the 513, there's so much option in the different pickup voicings, even between light and heavy humbucking modes. If it was blue, I would still own it! :lol:

PRS has now changed this model to the 509, with switching options more like the 408 (ie. using mini toggles). Shame, I think.

If I found a nice blue 513 (especially a private stock 513), I'd be very tempted...

No, it's just foolish nonsense. :moresarc:

Personally I think there are elements of G guitars that, combined with others from P ones, would make the near-perfect guitar. In that sense GRS would work just fine for me ;)

Ah I see, and when you say 'somebody', you mean BG, right?
