Man, i love the stick i get on this forum. There was a brand of Superstrats in the 90s (English built i believe) called Palm Bay, they had finishes like this but maybe a bit more low budget. Its definitely interesting but a bit bright for my tastes, i also prefer block colour as oppose to all these flamed thingys that PRS do. Also for me, PRS guitars best feature is the use of the wrapover bridge apparently inspired by vintage LP Juniors.

Yeah, gimme some credit man.
Im sure some people on here seem to think i own 14 brightly colored Superstrats and sit scratching my balls trying to work out Malmsteen solos, but that is'nt the case. Still, i like playing up to the image :lol:

Oddly enough they probably will. I never understood why PRS guitars suddenly got used by that genre of player. They seemed to go from a snobby Gibson alternatives used by the likes of Alex Lifeson (Rush) to the new conservative looking BC Rich. :?

it is much like the junior bridge on my melody maker. except smoother and compensated for modern lighter strings and plain g strings.

wish i could put one on my MM without modifying, actually. they are super comfy.

I know what you mean. The MM bridge sits so low, if you fitted a wrapover you would need a serious neck shim.

thats not what i mean. what do you mean?

it already has a wrapover, its just old as the hills and made for heavy strings and wound gs. the prs one is an improvement, but im pretty sure it wouldnt fit.

MM can be either Melody Maker or Music Master....I'm thinking Fran assumed it was the latter.
