I actually have had this guitar about 3 weeks now and I absolutely love it. This was not the color I originally had in mind, but I love this color and finish as much or more. As you can see when the lights hit it, it looks like a blackberry stain. I call this my Blackberry Rittenberry. Gary did an excellent job and the tone is as beautiful as the guitar is and the playability is incredible. This is probably the best guitar I've ever owned and I am very happy with it. Here are some pictures.

That is pretty and makes me want a new steel soo bad but it's hard to justify when the one I have works so darn good.
I've got to use all my powers to come up with a plan to get one somehow. _________________ Cops aren't paid much so I steel at night. |

I'm glad Gary Rittenberry is getting the recognition he so richly deserves. This man is a genius and is on the leading edge of new psg technology and ideas to squeeze the best possible sonic qualities from a guitar. Steve Palousek and Wayne Dahl can't be wrong. |

It's beautiful. The fretboard makes it pop too. _________________ RETIRED

Beautiful guitar Dean! I see it has TruTone pickups on it. Do you like these better than the 705s?

GORGEOUS .. I love these steels..
I am seeing a lot of changes in the new PRESTIGE model
The end plates, split screws, reversers, and probably more.. it might be time to seriously consider a new one.
