django49 Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 Had them all at one time. The EM was my fave, followed by the TT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBraz Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 None of those for me either. The Prince Studio is the only Studio I desire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Posted May 22, 2020 Author Share Posted May 22, 2020 6 hours ago, Camstone said: Watson I, too, lust after a Watson. Can’t exactly consider it a studio, tho. Different body shape; scale length, pickup arrangement, etc. i might have to put the Watson in the Mirage category because of the body shape and scale length. Hmm... maybe I should add a Watson to my Mirage wish list. Was going to get a maple top to complete my trifecta. That might have been too narrow minded, thinking too small. What’s better than 3 Mirages...? 4. 4 Mirages are better than 3... thank you, sir. You have enabled me once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamerhead Posted May 22, 2020 Share Posted May 22, 2020 I've had a 25th LE and a 30th, and absolutely loved the 30th. I'd like to try the other three of the 4 listed. The Triple Threats have always given me extreme G.A.S. Shawn really didn't help by posting the one from Reverb. Holy crap is that nice! The problem I have with Limited Editions is actually playing them. The first ding or scratch would cause major anxiety/guilt/depression. It's why those two are gone now. Great guitars, but their near-mintyness made me deathly afraid of wear or damage. They spent far more time on the wall or in the case than being used. It was fun for a while, but I'm not a collector. Don't get me wrong - I would be if I could afford to, but reality always gets in the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me wrong - I would be if I could afford to, but reality always gets in the way. You make a really good point. I personally believe that guitars are meant to be played and I would probably have a hard time playing a Mint limited edition Guitar for those same reasons. I'm sure I would be way better served finding a studio in players’ condition, throwing in a set of Gravelin’s and having my way with it for years to come. but I sure do love looking at the special edition guitars Hamer put out...

If only the mid 90’s wraptail studios had the vintage carve necks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
