I ordered my S2170FWNTF Prestige today. I currently have a 1990 s540ltd (made in japan). I was wondering if anyone has had any expieriance with the S2170FWNT. I hope it compares to my s540ltd. I am looking forward to playing with the new ZR trem. The prestige neck is something else I look forward to.
I have seen some prestiges (not an S) with the NTF finish that were not that impressive ...read dirt in finish. Kinda curious about that.
My 540 has IBZUSAF1 , C2, and F2 pups. The new guitar has some kind of IBZ's (Dimarzio's of course). I wonder how these compare to my old ones.
I have owned the 540 since new. 16 years and it is still a fabulous guitar.
Hope I can say that about the new machine.
It is gonna to be tough to say NO to the new guitar. But if it doesn't measure up to the 540 I'm not accepting it.
Well I geuss that's it for now. I will take some pics when it arrives. It is supposed to be here 4/15/06.
