Never mind, Iā€™ve decided I donā€™t want the thing I thought I wanted. So really, this has all been for nothing.

two points of note

  1. selling my baritone to buy another, almost identical les paul to the one i already have for some reason

  2. thinking of buying/subscribing to the slate digital suite of plugins basically for the mastering suite. anyone use em?

#1547

On point 2, Iā€™ve heard good things but donā€™t use them myself because Iā€™m a UAD wanker. Which is all top notch but painfully pricey.

What baritone and how much for? Always wanted one.

#1549

PRS SE 277. Reckon iā€™ll get about 500-550 for it but open to offers!

Ah well Iā€™ve just had to buy my daughter a new laptop and Iā€™m on strict ā€˜no more music stuff to clutter up the house with, yes that includes those little boxes that make your guitar sound weird, how many of those do you need anywayā€™ orders at the moment.

Do PRS guitars cost less these days? I seem to recall in about 2000 they were like a Ā£3000 guitar. Or maybe thatā€™s just a particular type. Love those birds as fretboard inlays though.

you can still get ones that are $$$$s but they have a few more affordable models too :slight_smile:
lovely guitars.

PRS chat: they recently lost their attempt at trade marking their headstock shape, due to lacking distinctive character. Thought that was quite harsh as when I saw the story on an IP blog as ā€œguitar company losesā€¦ā€ with a picture of the registration I immediately thought ā€œoh, thatā€™s the PRS headstock shapeā€.

Are there any other guitars that have a similar looking headstock?

Also am I right in that the only thing that guitar makers (fender & gibson) could trademark back in the day was the headstock after fender got rejected when attempting to trademark the strat body?

#1555

Dunno, itā€™s not something I know much about, this one just popped up recently.

Think Gibson have recently tried to take action against other companies but itā€™s backfired because itā€™s too late and they are considered generic.

Fender getting their headstock protected is funny as they copied it from bigsby

#1558

Thatā€™s funny because Fender purchased bigsby earlier this year

When a new instrument is intentionally damaged to make it look like an old beat up instrument.

Iā€™m still not entirely sure who Daryl Jones is but his signature instrument is still the best bass Iā€™ve ever played.

Please donā€™t educate me, Iā€™d rather not know.
