Well you guys are absolutely a terrible influence on me. Thank you. :lol:

I had to get another. Only I tried the honey amber this time since I have a red PRS.

Maybe I threw some confusion out there with the reference to PRS.

My first ever "good" guitar was a Schecter C-1+. I sold it on here a few years ago. It was the flamed red top.

This is the same guitar only a couple years newer and it is the Honey Amber color.

I always liked my other Schecter so when this deal came along I had to jump on it.

It's only 399.00 now.

So this is the Honey Amber Schecter C-1+ to replace the red one sold a couple years ago.

Sorry for any confusion.

Well, congrats anyhow. Now I must go and do a google search on some race car driver's wife thanks to something a little birdie said. :lol: (I assume it's a racer....I guess I'll find that out too.)

Edit: Better keep that one away from good golfers. :)

A good laugh there at the end, Roy, as Tiger's wife packs up her fine art today.

A little help here on Erica Dewey, who has her own name too, but who'd remember? :lol:

Okay anyway, back to guitars, so the new baby is Schecter and that explains the trademark string through body thing. 8)

P.S. Did I at least spell SCHecter right, 'cuz I can never get the spelling of Kyle Busch, or the beer, but I got America's former president(s) shhpelling down pat. :roll:

Bish, me amigo, I need to send you some pics of my girl playing drums. She's in a band already at the school where she's taking lessons! 8) Thank you, again, for the drum kit advice.

Hey, Slej, good to hear man. Post some pix on the other forum if you can.

I'm glad to help...

TR, thanks man. It's a great guitar to play.

A funny thing happened on the way to the forums.

What I found with this Schecter is that it really wasn't the color I wanted or had seen on line.

I called MF to inquire about getting it replaced with the Sunburst color I thought I was originally getting.

After a half hour with the customer service rep and realizing I'm not going to get the finish I really wanted I had two options. Return the guitar and take the red one like I had a few years ago or I could get another discount. I thought, why not? How much is the discount. He rattled off taking another $135 off the price if I just keep it. Hmmm, that now takes a $600 guitar down to $265. So I've opted to keep it.

Now I want to replace the pups but in this situation, I'm totally ignorant. I should probably start a new thread on pup selection but if anyone knows a good set of pick ups that will make this guitar "hotter" please make some suggestions. I don't know if the coil tap needs to be taken into consideration but that also exists on this guitar.

Thanks for any opinions of a good set of compatible pups.

Bish

Now you're thinking like I do! I bought a new Harley in a color I didn't like back in 1985, because I could get it for a whole lot less at the end of the model year than getting a new one of the next year's model a few weeks later in the color I wanted. (It grew on me, though.)

Do you still have it?
