Yeah they didn’t make too many of them , they seem to be pretty desirable over the all mahogany. It’s definitely lighter in weight , the tone is brighter especially when you split the pickups

Very nice! I want to own a PRS at some point to see if they stick or not. Would need the wide neck profile though. Have come to the conclusion that if a neck is not Les Paul width, they don't work for me.
On a side note, how can you play barefoot? Stages are filthy!

Not sure on exact measurements but the wide fat on my cu22 (they dont use that name anymore, not sure what the current equivalent is) and pattern vintage on my 594 profiles are both definitely LPish feeling to me
I'm a wook I don't fuck with shoes on stage. Builds the immune system

My pictures don’t even remotely do it justice but I play my reclaimed Vela more than any guitar I own. I love that guitar. Besides the neck, feel, weight, everything, the pickups are just right too the neck pickup is snappy but also fat, the bridge is bright but not at all ice-picky, thin, or honky. They sound great clean and under gain.

The reclaims look so sweet
I brought my vela to practice for the first time in a bit last night. the pickups really are special. beautiful cleans and can chug with the right amp too (ENGL action last night lol). and lead work really just soars and sings
