getting ready to sell some stuff so I thought I'd get the entire group together for a shot before hand. :D

What is the name of the finish on the PRS that is leaned against the middle of the Lonestar Combo? That is a sweet color. I'd like to see more pics of that one.

Damn... this picture as my desktop background does nothing for my PRS GAS!!!!

Thats a flip flop paint color. It changes from greenish to purple depending on the angle of the light.

I only have one other pretty poor pic of that at the moment but it gives you the idea:

Aaaaaaand what are you selling? :idea:

Still deciding exactly, but probably 3 or 4 or the PRS's, both Lonestars, Mark III, Mark IV, and some cabs. Just have too much stuff at the moment. The Woody Mark 1, IIC+,Black Cherry PRS CE on the stand in front, the custom red quilt guitar, and the metallic red PRS Studio Standard are the only ones for sure not going anywhere. I'll post the boogies at some point on this board once I make my mind up for sure.

Well, its probably doing something for your GAS, just not curing it. :)

That's what I suspected when I saw that one. That's KILLER!! I didn't know PRS offered chameleon finishes. My Ernie Ball is the Mystic Dream chameleon finish and it is pretty sweet too.
 
Is that a Fractal AXE FX running into a QSC???? WHAT SACRILEGE IS THIS?! :p

Hey what camera did you shoot that with? Looks really nice. DSLR perhaps? If so what focal length? The colors are really vivid. I have a Nikon myself.

Also, I don't think you have enough PRS's... :) :lol:

Heh... AxeFX + Boogie still sounds better than AxeFX + QSC for me at the moment though. Not sure if its the QSC itself or something in my AxeFX sim power amp settings I need to work out.

The camera is a Nikon D70 and a pretty standard 18-70mm ( 35mm equivalent ) zoom. That shot is probably at about the 35mm setting I'm guessing. Lit with a White Lightning studio flash and an umbrella. :)

No wonder it looks so bloody good! Those cameras are killer. My dad has a D50. I'd love to get a D40 soon. The only difference is features that i prob wouldn't even mess with. If you know what you are doing you can create masterpieces like yours!

A friend came over yesterday and we stared at my windows background for a good 5 minutes solid commenting on your different guitars and amps. :D I'll have to holler at you if I'm ever passing through Tone Heaven USA. ;) I'd love to just be in the same room as all that nice gear!

Oh very nice. I have the d80 kit lens on my d50 (18-135). I have a few other lenses as well; 50mm 1.4 AF, and 85mm 1.8 AF-D. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3381/3333426667_803677c030_b.jpg there's a shot i took of my rig :)

I would stay away from the d40. It isn't even sold anymore officially. Nikon is going to replace it VERY soon. Like within the next 3 or 4 months. But to be completely honest, the d40 and d60 are not very useful to me because they don't autofocus older lenses. Two out of my 3 lenses wouldn't work on a d40/d60 because they lack the autofocus screw-drive motor and screw in the lens mount. This severely limits the lenses you can use. Unfortunately :/ The d50 was the last entry-level camera that Nikon has which still retained this autofocus ability, making it superior to those two and even the d70/d70s because it has less noise at higher iso. :) It's really old nowadays though.

Thanks for the info! It's not often that I get GAS for anything other than music gear, but these Nikon cameras are giving me serious GAS!!! The detail and sharpness is just incredible. I love how my dad's camera takes the picture as you see it through the lens (for the most part at least - as they call 'point and shoot'). I've taken my time with cheaper cameras to get a good shot and then been disappointed at the outcome. I feel like some really note-worthy scenes and memories have been degraded due to poor camera shots.
