I just hope that this was a custom made for a customer because if the people at PRS thought this was a good idea I think these lockdowns have had a very negative effect on their creative team

Re: Paging Conway!
Yeah, one can forgive much after work like this:
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Re: Paging Conway!
Urgh, those guitars would have to be right up there with a 2020 planner for the year's most useless purchase. Not totally useless, but in terms of use/cost, about as much use as the planner (which, being paper, could have some other uses )

Re: Paging Conway!
honestly at least the workmanship of those look like adults at least did it. That tiger looks like some dude and his daughter were locked in the PRS factory for all of their lockdown and he let her have a go at making one because they had nothing else to do

Re: Paging Conway!
um hate to break the news here guys, I thought something about it looked fake so started to research and nope its real. BUT it gets worse there is more than one
at least with this one it looks like a little more effort went into making the tiger look "real"

Re: Paging Conway!
I suggest you miss the point. They are all among the finest examples of contemporary inlay art. And they use a PRS as a canvas. What's not to like?olegmcnoleg wrote: ↑Thu Aug 27, 2020 4:39 pmUrgh, those guitars would have to be right up there with a 2020 planner for the year's most useless purchase.

Well, price...but apart from price, what's not to like?
