I'm just curious. If you could buy a guitar from a major manufacturer tricked out any way you wanted, what would you come up with? I'm thinking about standard designs (LP, Strat, D-28, Your favorite Schecter, whatever). If you could have one of those built any way you wanted what would you do?
What got me started was thinking about a Gibson J-185 EC. My dream would be to have one of those in VSB with ebony bridge and fingerboard (no inlays in the fgbd, just side dots. It would be 1 13/16 at the nut. I would probably go with engelmann spruce for the top. I don't need extra fancy maple on the back and sides their regular stuff is satisfactory. The neck would be honduras mahogany. It would have a 25" or 25 1/4" scale length. Gotoh 510 tuners in black with ivoriod buttons. The binding would be ivoroid as well. A factory Fishman Ellipse Aura system with custom images would be subsitiuted as well.
Tell me about your dream PRS.
