Help Mod Shops??

Hey team, does anybody have anything to share about their experiences with Mod Shop instruments??

Looking at trading up my S2 custom 24 PRS for a gold top standard, with black hardware from 2021 and want to make sure these instruments have a good rep as i'm skeptical.

Thanks

I do have a Mod Collection 335. Very nice guitar but that doesnt mean that this counts for every Mod Shop Guitar.

I've got one - a 60s in Twilight fire sparkle - which is blue and purple figured and glittery. Really nice guitar. Nothing wrong with it other than a small knock on the front which you can't see tbh - got a fantastic deal on it - my favourite thing is that no one else has one like mine and I didn't have to pay M2M prices :). Bit heavy that's all. Any specific ones you thinking of ?

I bought a Mod Collection Les Paul from Gibson a few years ago and it needed a new nut cut due to intonation issues. I don’t know if I’d buy another given the premium paid to own one, but that’s just me.
