Steve, that is a great looking guitar! Love it.
Prestige builds "stock" models of their guitar range. So one may see exactly what they want on the wall.
Mike, the owner, also has a larger business that sources/imports/exports/distributes tone woods around the world. To many of the major guitar manufactures. I was amazed I can walk into the back and choose wood. You can also choose the neck wood and fret board wood. They will do custom fret board inlays, custom logos, etc. Pick your hardware, pick ups, etc. Amazing customization.
I am having them put a Fishman Pick Up set up into my Guild 12 string. Same set up I have in my Prestige Koa.
I love Prestige Eclipse body for sound and fit. The neck works well with my chubby fingers.... I am thinking about a Devin Townsend Empath, or seeing what they can do for me using some woods I don't have in many of my guitars.
My Prestige Eclipse Koa was the first guitar I bought from them. Yet they treated me like I was their best client. Truth be told, despite having 19 guitars, in the big scheme of things, I am a hack. I can play along to all my fave songs, play a few original riffs, sit around a campfire with drunk people and make them thing I am great.... get me? I am a drummer as far as a musician goes. If you need me on stage with a band, I will play drums. That I am good at. If I am playing guitar, my mic will need to be turned down....
I consider Mike and Prestige good friends, we chat business, music and life when we get to see each other. Great human and true passion for his brand and taking care of his clients.
If you are interested in any of their guitars, I am happy to go out there and look at the woods or strum a few chords on your behalf. I have them as my luthiers as well. Despite having plenty of music shops in our area (some where I have spent considerable sums) I prefer the locally owned businesses where I get to meet the people behind the vision and the work. I am out there at least once a month. Would love to help anyone looking at one of their guitars.
Cheers
