Year built: 2018

Hard case or Gig Bag? – Yes, original hard case in good condition with all latches in good, working order. Case code 001

Body Condition: 9.5/10
Really excellent condition, from a few feet away it looks new !
On [very] close inspection in bright light you will find some extremely minor scratches / blemishes from use, and cleaning cloths, but very very minor.
The most noticeable imperfections are:
One tiny dent on top edge (see pics), some minuscule polishing scratches and blemishes elsewhere, none noteworthy.
The rear of the guitar is extremely clean too. I couldn’t detect any noticeable noteworthy buckle rash and again only the most minor evidence of use and polishing swirls.

Neck: 8.5/10
Profile is ‘Pattern’ (50’s style fat).
The frets are in good condition with some light signs of wear and tear. No dents, some minuscule flat spots.
The Rosewood fingerboard appears in excellent condition with only minuscule signs of wear.
The rear is showing no noticeable dents or scratches.

Hardware: 9.5/10
The machineheads are original and in excellent working order, some extremely light signs of tarnish.
The stop tail / bridge is in good condition but has gnarled height adjustment bolts (see pics) but the piezo saddles are in good condition with some light signs of tarnish.

Electrics: 9.5/10
This is a very complicated / versatile guitar in terms of electric circuitry.
Sockets, pots and switches etc are wear and tear items. The electrics on this guitar have been tested and are in excellent working order, but my standard disclaimer is it’s a used guitar and one must expect SOME occasional electrical ‘scratching’ noise, crackling and popping when adjusting pots and switches. In our opinion the electrics on this guitar exhibit no / less than average ‘noise’ in normal play but there’s no guarantee how long they will stay in this condition.

Playability:
This guitar has been lovingly set up by Jon, one of the UK’s most highly regarded and experienced guitar techs.
Re-strung with a new set of D’Addario EXL110 10-46 strings.
That doesn’t mean this guitar is the best playing guitar ever, it just means that he has taken the time to set it up. Adjust the action, intonation etc so that it plays as well as can be expected and stays in tune as good as any guitar of this type does.
We all have differing styles and demands from our instruments. Some of us like fast n low actions for fretboard burning licks, others prefer a high n mightly action for show stopping windmills and downtuned heavy riffing and everything in between. No one set up suits all!
This specific guitar has been set up sympathetically for it’s style so has a fairly low action, and minimal fret buzzing.

Case: Original PRS hard case with PRS paperwork – see pics.

Priced with all of the above in mind but feel free to “make an offer”.
