Hi Sushkov, I have been talking to Michael about the colours already. Could I have a last look at the guitar top before I make the final decision. It is the hardest thing to decide! I think I will go with the Violin Amber Burst but Whale Blue is always in the back of my mind.... |

Top now looks as fiew days ago. We must talk about knobs and p/u selector placement too. It's all work before painting. For more accuracy pickups holes I'll route after first layer of laquer. Post here your comments, I read this board every day. And now will post pics from my own camera. |

Hi, I have already sent pictures of the type of colour I like and I dont like to Michael so that you get a good idea of what i am looking for :). I think he will be forwarding them to you soon, I have just emailed him again. I would like the knob/selector positioning to remain the same as PRSs provided the T-O-M bridge doesnt get in the way. If it does, I will need to ask for your advise. |

Hi. thanks for the update, it's looking more and more like a guitar everyday The headstock inlay look beautiful.... BUT...I thought we landed on abalone modern eagle style inlays on rosewood. have you received the pictures i sent to michael yet? i think there was about 3 guitars/colours i liked, i was hoping you will get an idea of what i am looking for. thanks |

But I not fully understand specs about headstock. On current neck version I can see only non transparent black painted front of headstock. If you want a cool looking headstok, he must be black painted or maple (or any dark wood) laminated. Like on picture below. | |||

About body colors: yes, I like pictures that you recieved. Its a great violin amber painting. But I can not see any bindings on that pics. It's not real binding on all PRS guitars. It's a simply not painted natural side of maple top. What do you like? Guitar whith light flamed maple binding or whith toned corners? |

Hi Sushkov, thanks for the reply. Yes the picture shows the fingerboard inlays I want (it is from the PRS 513). For the headstock i was looking for the Modern Eagle, which is something like this. I do think the private stock type headstock inlay is fantastic but i thought the Modern Eagle ones matched the 513 ingerboard inlays better. | |||

Please let me know if any of these are unclear. By the way, i was wondering if you had any ideas for the 24th fret marker because the 513s only go to 22. Thank you very much |

the top in question (2nd above) looks like it does have faux bindings, but but they are either shaded like the burst edge ( just a shade or two lighter) or else the entire guitar has a fairly dark tinted clearcoat | |

I'll make a new eagle tomorrow. And headstock will be darkwood laminated. May be rosewood if I'll found, may be venge. Tomorrow I'll post here anything about. Colors you posted I'd like the upper guitar - a reach amber and wonderfull deep burst. And binding like at this guitar will looks great. 24 fret - for your choice. It can be empty, or a little pearl line with serial number or any other thing like your initials or Shamray Custom Shop logo. |

sorry if i have caused any trouble, is it still possible to make the headstock inlay out of abalone? I will leave you with the colour decisions:) you know best I think the shamray logo might be a good idea on the 24th fret. do you think you can base it on something like this please? thank you very much |

Don't worry. Abalone pieces are glued inside. If you want I can install frets 2.8 mm - it's higher than standart gibson or fender frets. What fret size do you you prefer? In custom order is not noticed fret size. | |

PRS uses "medium jumbo", as do most modern Gibson and Fender guitars. OLD fenders (like your 64 jaguar) used a thinner "vintage" fretwire. | |

hi michael. I think i will go with the medium jumbo then... i quite like the modern frets, slightly easier to bend the strings |

Hi Sushkov, yes the flames are looking nicer. please update me with pictures of every step Hi Alevtina, i agree these guys are good. Hi Orpheo, yes i think the final colour will be Violin Amber Burst....presumably this is a base colour so there are couple more steps before the final colour. Im leaving Sushkov with the small details about colour as he knows best, and he knows what i want. |

Sure, which ever method you like to mark your baby:) signature, logo, fingerprints...on the headstock, inside the electronics cavity...you chose:) The DS logo looks quite nice. If you can find a good place on the back of the headstock, go for it. I have a clip-on tuner which clips on to the headstock... i might have to stop using it because i dont want the logo to rub off.... |
