This just arrived today and I'm super happy
It's a PRS 35th Anniversary S2 Custom 24 to give it its full name, in McCarty sunburst with mahogany body and neck. It's got coil taps on the humbuckers (the two little toggle switches) which is mostly why I bought it and is also my first guitar with a tremolo having been a Les Paul fan for years. Great service from Guitar Village and they set up it up beautifully too.

Any recommendations for a parlour sized guitar?
I was looking at the epiphone el-00 but then YT clips of the Gretsch Jim dandy found a sound I want (blues /folk) at a much more reasonable price. However I THEN saw the gretsch rancher penguin in midnight sapphire and I’m kinda in love with it despite it being totally gaudy.
What other options in that admittedly wide price band? We s also thinking a resonator but the parlor seems ideal in terms of sound and volume (spend a lot of time in hotels).

Looking at 'stuff' I don't use today.
Gretsch 'Billybo' Thunderbird which I hope to get signed by Billy if he makes it back over here...
...and a hefty Orange head signed by Jimmy Page back in 2004. Bought at his then-Wife Jimena's charity auction.
Some interesting stuff there. Have only seen one Billybo before, in a ZZ Top tribute band, they had the bass as well.Gretsch 'Billybo' Thunderbird which I hope to get signed by Billy if he makes it back over here...
