I also don't see many/any? deliberately vandalised belt sanded specials at my local blues jams
*grimaces, hand pauses, sighs deeply and then selects mustard cords from next to knackered jeans as feeling realisation hits home with head held low...
At the moment I'm looking for:
* Hamer Watson, SS2, Vintage S, T62.
* Music Man Luke 1, Luke II
Please drop me a message.

Bit of trading feedback here.
Some people think good design is how practically useful something is made, others prefer it to be quirky and a bit of a challenge to use. I'm in the latter mostly although I've recently switched to what I consider an easier to play instrument (not a PRS). I think the car analogy is a good one, I personally find that cars these days are very dull and similar and generic and would ideally like to see myself driving a Triumph Spitfire rather than the Ford Fiesta I've ordered that should arrive the end of the month but circumstance dictates and there will no doubt be things in the Fiesta that are nicer than I'd get in a Triumph. It will suit my driving needs and keep my hands warm on the steering wheel in the winter but nobody would ever say it's as cool as a Triumph Spitfire.
But not everybody likes "cool" or "fashionable", doesn't mean it's not good or that it's not nice to you, and I think it's fairly bad form to piss on other's chips when talking about such design choices as the chances are, if you don't like it, you're not the target anyway
Edit: admittedly I'm a biased fanboy but I'm amused how often Jack White gets mentioned in a thread about the appeal (or not) of PRS guitars, especially as the reason he is brought up each time seems to be because of an instrument he's not played in public for 12 years! He plays Gibsons, Gretches and Fenders these days, even a Musicman/Ernie Ball and a Wolfgang.

Cheers @Dan_Halen the gold top is my number one, just love it, it’s a 2009 model and full of dings, scratches, lacquer peeling etc ... proper work horse..

Also, they had a couple of the new sandblasted SEs there - they’re really quite good, the bridge pickup is crazy hot though! I loved the new finish in person too.
Special thanks to the staff for looking after me and letting me run wild trying out the expensive shiny toys
Could you imagine what a music shop would look like it it was left to @HarrySeven - In fact that is an interesting thought
