Carl, you're right--it doesn't lok at all like a PRS, it looks like a Burns Bison on acid!

Aitch, I'm a large where shirts are concerned and a stubby where pencils are concerned and I like my coffee...strong and black.

A classic Fyrebird!! I still think the El Toro was a nice, understated Maton - the Fyrebirds are/were a bit fussy and 'gizmo-ish'!

No probs Paul..

Howard I was serious I'd love one in that colour. Only problem is that I'd have to file a countersuit to a petition for divorce.

I hate paperwork.

Howard when do you sleep? It seems that you are always here on the forum during our wakey wakey time.

Sorry, Brian.... I was dozing off....

Paperwork.... LOL!!

I usually manage to slot in 4 to 6 hours a day, Brian. As I said in another thread, I'm a forum junkie (as well as a Rickenbacker one)..... better that than a workaholic!! Image

Howard,

Dozing off is OK at our age. Who ever invented the clock must have had a sadistic streak.

As far as being a forum junkie I suspect I am starting to qualify. This more fun than when grannie caught her t*ts in the mangle. LOL

Most younger people probably would not know what a mangle is I bet.

Imagine trying to get one of those past safety standards today. It would never fly.

There's one on eBay right now that finishes in 3 hours.
It's going for pretty cheap from what I understand!

I'd actually consider buying one them. I like the way the switch looks with the design of the guitar.
