I just purched PRS Custom 22 Quilted Maple 10-Top Hybrid, features a Santana Yellow Finish, Zebra Pickups (HFS trebel and vintage bass.) Nickle and Gold hardware(looks really cool). Bird Inlays, Adjustable Stop Tail Bridge (I had no problem with the regular stop tail bridge on my Standard Satin...but I know some people hate the non adjustable bridges). Wide Thin Neck and 5 Way Switch(I don't like that 5 way switch. I'm going to change it out and put in a push pull tone for the single coil and a toggle for bass trebel pick up. There was a great Hardshell case included,

I use the guitar with a Rivera 45 Clubster which between pickups and amp settings just gives me anything I want..Rich Full, Screaming Leads....doesn't need any stomp pedals if I'm just jammin'. Just don't like that damn 5 way pick up selector switch =)

I've only had the guitar for a month. But it is solid as a rock and I think will put up with anything the road can dish out. I would use it on a gig with out a back up if I had to. But, just in case a string went...I like to have another handy quick!!!!! But, I've bent the strings as hard as I could and they haven't snapped. Awsome damn guitar!!!!

I'm 43 I've been playing on and off since I was 10 and have had knock off Les Pauls, an Ibanez Iceman, Kramer Focus 3000. The only other brand I will own besides PRS is GMP!!!!!!!!!!
If it were lost or stolen I would get another one.
I love the way my PRS sounds, feels, looks, plays, It's just a great guitar all around.
I don't know why some people hate them so much I read a guy on here who gave it a 3. You can like a Les Paul and a PRS too!!!!can't we all just get along!!!PRS is a great guitar no matter what..... and Les Paul is great too..Fender is great...that's the beautiful thing about guitars...there are so many to choose from..I wish I had an allowance just for guitar collecting. I'd have all kinds but.....If you only are given to to have in life I go with PRS and GMP, bury me with those guitars.
