You mean like somewhere that you're not allowed to do certain things, like mix with other people, travel to other countries, perform live music or entertainment, criticise the authorities, go shopping for pleasure, visit other parts of your own country, spend time with family, protest against perceived injustice etc. ? Ah! It's hard to imagine somewhere like that from our privileged position.

Lovely those! From Wikipedia: Cort's main production focus is not on Cort-brand guitars, but rather on contract work for numerous other companies. Generally, large companies contract Cort to build lower-priced guitars that have that company's brand on them. Ibanez, Parkwood, Squier, G&L Tribute series line of guitars are among the most well-known brands that Cort produces. In recent years, small companies known for extremely high quality (and high-priced) guitars have begun contracting Cort to produce budget line models. Avalon Guitars, based in Northern Ireland, sold 8,000 guitars and more than doubled their income from the previous year when they contracted Cort to build a lower-priced guitar for them.

Sacrilege! A sartorial faux-pas of epic proportions! (However, the Westone Thunder has chrome machine heads and brass bridge & controls, and looks ace!)

Really good! 👍

Aha! But there's soooo much more than just the kestrel inlay: The Story of the PRS Bird Inlays (prsguitars.com)

Wash your mouth out!!!

True - I understand why they've done it, but it might have the unwelcome side-effect of putting people off joining the PRS in the first place.

Fantastic @neilmurraybass ! Thanks!

Bit of a bugger if you smoke... I imagine it would be quite a deflating experience

I hope for your sake that no-one else posts to this thread! I can't imagine that anyone will...
