    Exclamation I got my new PRS hollowbody a friend.

    Didn't want my PRS JA-15 getting lonley so I got her some company.
    I have never seen a top like this on a non-private stock prs. I also like the hollowboy IIs' smaller body. This thing sounded awesome through a fender blues deluxe at guitar center. I am gonna give it a thorough workout tomorrow when I can give it some volume without making my nieghbors want to kill me.

    I have been playing this thing unplugged and I am just floored with it!!! Played acoustic it just sparkels and sings at the same time. It has some similarity in tone to my JA-15 but they are different enough to keep things interesting. It came with 11s' which I am not used to anymore but as wonderful as this thing sounds I will get used to 11s' again. I have a set of D'addario flat wounds to try on the JA-15, I think I want to try some on this on as well. I am in tonal heavan and I haven't heard it through my amp yet.

    Whats funny is both of these guitars were in Michigan Guitar Centers. One was in Canton, the other in Grand Rapids.

    I have named the JA-15 "Big Red" and this one I've named "Purple Passion". I am sold on PRS!!! Now All I need is a Artist top SC 58 and really I think Purple will fill that niche rather nicely as well.

    That is seriously one of the best looking guitars I have ever seen. And the fact that it's dyed PINK of all things makes it even cooler.

    Looking up what a JA-15 was, I found this awesome song - does anyone know what song this is, or is it just improv?

    GOTTA LEARN IT!!!

    Not at all. I spent some time seeking this one out. I am one picky individual. I am into asthetics as much as tone and playability. I am not an individual who ooos and aaahs over any piece of flame or quilted maple. I like "stunning" figure. I have never seen anything this figured before other than in pics. to see this on a non-private stock instument and to be able to aquire it before someone else snatched it up is a blessing. I traded in my epi les paul and a strat for this one. I would say the 2 PRS hollowbodies are the most wonderfull guitars I have ever owned.

    Thank you. I am very pleased with it. I am still enjoying it unplugged.

    I was also going to add, after comparing them unplugged, the JA-15 has a warmer sound and is louder. It's a bit bassier. Obviously because of the larger body and spruce top. This is not to knock the angry larry (redish violet) hollowbody II. They are both "DYNO-MITE" guitars. I am loving the diferences. They are both awesome guitars. I have two equally pleasing hollowbody variations. Also have to say I find the necks on them very comfy to play on thick, but not the thickest I have ever played. They have a very nice contour

    Thank you. I didn't think of it as pink, but I guess it's almost fuscia. I think it's just goergous!!!
