Ladies and gentlemen! I am proud to present my new axe: The PRS Tremonti USA biggrin.gif

I've got the best deal on earth on it - received it free for an year and if I decided to buy it, I will get a 40% discount!

So far, it feels like silk in the hand, very heavy and biting on the tone when riffing and soloing and it has the most crystalline cleans with a deep touch. Samples coming soon, but until then, here are some pics with my whole rig and the new PRS and a little movie in which you can see my surprise when opening the case biggrin.gif

Opening the case

ooohh that looks really cool smile.gif The inlays look different to other prs' Ive seen, do they have a different centre? I like those.
Looking forward to hearing it!
Mertay
YEAH! smile.gif
Becca
Oh Cosmin, that is incredible. Such a beautiful colour too. It just looks the absolute business and I bet it plays like a dream too. Hell YEAH! smile.gif smile.gif smile.gif Like Bleez I cannot wait to hear it.

That is an awesome Tremonti PRS!!!

My friend just got the Zack Myers SE yesterday, I had been trying to talk him into it since I got the Spalted Maple one. He came over and played it and loved it, so he went ahead and got his. He was like me, a little reluctant because it was an SE, but he just recently purchased an Epiphone for $400 from a pawn shop and loves it - so realized that you can get great guitars for under $1000. He has very expensive guitars too Les Paul, PRS, Tele, Strat, etc.

I was saying yesterday I would like an Ibanez, which I will get one day, but recently I have been obsessed with wanting an acoustic bass. I had one years ago and can't remember what I did with it.

So this Fender Kingsman is not expensive and it has a Jazz neck on it. I think this will probably be my next impulse buy.

Thank you man! The SE is a great series! Don't forget I own two SEs that perform absolutely great! biggrin.gif
I like both Myers and Spalted Maple guitars so, if you ask me, it's a great thing you guys have different axes!

I will most probably get the Myers for a review these following months smile.gif

Very nice. Always drool over prs guitars. How do you get it free for a year? You get prs indorsment?

Is your prs se, a custom 24? I was curious about the se custom 24, I was thinking of getting one and use it for drop c.

I got it because of my endorsement with PRS tongue.gif It's an American made PRS Tremonti - here are the tech specs: https://www.prsguitars.com/tremonti/

I am totally in love with it biggrin.gif

The C24 could be a great drop C axe - one of my band mates has the USA model and another the SE model, both rocking out! So, I totally recommend it wink.gif

Congrats!!!!
It's great that you finally received it.
So, it would be cool to hear it))
Cosmin Lupu
You can hear it in the 80s collab already, until I get to shoot a review biggrin.gif

Gabriel Leopardi
I've just found this thread mate! I've seen the video at facebook previously but I didn't know about that amazing deal! I could see it in action thanks to the 80's collab but I'm curios to hear more samples.

Congratulation Cos! You really deserve it.

Thank you very much, man! I'm currently waiting to receive live footage with the guitar in action from last Friday's gig with the amazing guys from Karnivool and I'll surely upload some here as well!

Thanks man! Well, who knows? smile.gif I'm struggling hard to get things rolling as a brand ambassador here in Romania. So far, so good, but you know.. it's never enough smile.gif
SixStringSamurai
Gah I'm so jealous. I've never been a huge Tremonti fan but he has GREAT taste in gear.
Cosmin Lupu
Yeah indeed he has biggrin.gif Well mate, don't be jealous - you had a load of instruments going through your hands, so I am sure you will most likely get a Tremonti as well wink.gif
SixStringSamurai
Sigh, I just checked. The local distributor doesn't have any USA Tremontis sad.gif I guess I'll have to wait till next time I go to the States or Japan or something. Dammit!

Enjoy it, it looks amazing.

I sure will, mate! biggrin.gif I am preparing an Alter Bridge and a Karnivool playthrough with it, so it's getting a lot of attention laugh.gif

That's exactly what I thought when looking at the pictures. That chair... smile.gif

Cosmin Lupu
You guys would be surprised biggrin.gif I have those chairs since I was very, very young and I find them very suitable for practicing, because they are rigid and unfriendly and they don't allow you to sit back and adopt a position which is unsuitable for practicing.

You need to stand pretty close to the edge, with your back held straight smile.gif

What sort of chairs do you use when you practice sitting or where do you actually sit? Do you find yourselves in weird positions because of sitting on the edge of the bed or other places like that?
Jeroen
This is what I use for guitar practice. It forces me to sit with a straight back. I like it a lot
