Description
What makes this guitar special: This is a very unique signature series PRS with as much character in look as it does tone. The curly maple 10 top and Prism finish look absolutely phenomenal together and give the overall aesthetic some serious depth. The 1957/2008 humbuckers sound fantastic in all three positions and work equally well for jazz as just about everything under the sun, with a warm and full response in the neck and rich chime in the bridge. The construction also features other prime tone woods such as a beautifully straight-grained Peruvian mahogany neck and dark Mexican rosewood fingerboard, the pair of which produces excellent sustain and a nice visual touch to boot. The custom profile neck plays perfectly from the nut to the cutaway and should still be pretty familiar to a wide variety of players, as it feels like a slightly chunkier C shape. Plus, for a used guitar it is super clean and plays that much better with the setup our techs have given it.
Condition: This PRS is in excellent condition overall, if not better. It does possess a few small dings and dents and light surface scratches, as well as some tarnishing on the hardware, but is largely super clean and still looks fantastic for a used guitar. The frets show almost no wear and still have a full lifetime of playing left in them. The neck is straight and the truss rod functions as it should.
