If this guitar holds up like I think it will, it'll be mine for a very, very long time. The price seems to fit all things considered, but I'm interested in hearing what others think about the guitar based on the link. Though pricey, they're still priced a couple thousand less than other notable Langeudoc models like Forshage or Crow Hill (which are amazing in their own right, and probably a very, very safe bet!). I am a huge fan of the Phred Instruments Dockstar. I was wondering if anyone here has ever played their R2 models before, knows someone who has, or, even better, if anyone has experience owning one. Joshs earliest influences were favorite recording and three guitar teachers: Flip Shoemaker and Tim. Obviously, I'd much rather play the guitar prior to buying, but that's not an option here. However, at $5500-$6500-ish, these things aren't cheap. Aside from being made in the US, the R2 looks to answer all of these critiques about the Dockstar and Reprise models: the hardware and wiring is great, comes with quality pickups, and optional Schaller M6 locking tuners (+$20 upgrade).

One thing I've heard consistently about Phred guitars is that the lower-tier models are actually pretty darn good for what you pay, but sometimes they would really benefit from an upgrade here or there. The R2 is their premium line modeled after the famed Languedoc of Phish fame. Right now I'm thinking about buying an R2 Koa. Hey folks, there really aren't any threads dedicated to Phred Instruments, aside from the occasional one about a specific model, but I'm hoping we could use a more general one to talk about our experiences and share any feedback.
