Description

What makes this guitar special: A rare bird from the early days of PRS, made in the original factory with stellar attention to detail and beautiful appointments. It sports an ultra-comfortable Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard with hand-inlaid abalone birds, and a set of PRS proprietary pickups which offers a wide variety of tonal possibilities. Professionally inspected and setup by the experts at Cream City Music, so it’s ready to go right out of the case!

Cosmetic condition: Used but not abused, with some standard wear & tear throughout. Various scratches, dents, dings, nicks, chips, and scuffs, with some surface level buckle rash and some visible fretwear.

Body: Solid mahogany body with curly maple cap in whale blue finish. Top-loading DieCast 4-saddle bridge.

Weight: 8 lb, 11.9 oz

Neck: C-shaped maple neck with pearl side dots and abalone bird inlays. Brazilian Rosewood fingerboard is in terrific shape, and frets show light wear but have a lot of life in them. 1 11/16” nut width, 34” scale length. Neck thickness measures .84” at the first fret & .94” at the 12th. Small script headstock logo and chrome sealed PRS tuners. Neck is straight and truss rod works great.

Electronics: Triple single coils with dummy coil on the back of the body. 5-way rotary pickup selector and master volume. Individual bass & treble EQ. Active/Passive toggle. All electronics have been tested and are fully functional.

Case: Original hard shell case included. Case is a bit musty, but is in good shape.
