SPECTACULAR!!
You're looking at a 2010 PRS Swamp Ash Special Narrowfield 25th Anniversary, with a Charcoal Smoke-burst finish, and a smokin' hot maple flamed neck & fretboard, and the 25th Anniversary "shadow" birds fret inlays! This new model incorporates some of the familiar SAS features, but adds some nice new features as well. Beginning with the 57/08 "Narrowfield" pickups. These pickups narrow the sensory field of the string (like a single coil) but they are hum cancelling (like a humbucker). The result is a new sounding pickup, with blended features of a single coil, soapbar and humbucker. This 25th Anniversary Edition was recently released to commemorate PRS's 25th year of greatness! This is just a master-piece all the way! From the cool "Eagle" headstock, to the amazing "Narrowfield" pickups, this one is a keeper for sure! She's 100% original and ready to rock! By the way; I've had alot of questions, asking how these pickups sound... so rather than attempting to describe the sound, I decided to add a U-Tube link, so you can hear the guitar (a different guitar, but same model) for yourself (please forgive the sloppy guitar playing). Here's the link; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NhNmcWwHqb8
Here is the lowdown on the features:
- Carved Swamp Ash Body ~ Beautiful grain!!
- Maple Neck ~ with sweet maple flames!
- Maple Fretboard with 22 Frets ~ Also very nicey flamed!
- 25th Anniversary Shadow Birds Fret Inlays ~ Banded Melon (which is a rock substance)
- 25" Scale Length
- Standard Neck Profile ~ Not too fat and not too slim! Just right!
- Eagle Headstock Inlay, with "25th Anniversary" Designation
- PRS Tremelo Bridge ~ Includes the whammy bar!
- PRS 14:1 Phase II low mass locking tuners
- Nickel Hardware
- SAS Truss Rod Cover
- 3 PRS 57/08 Narrowfield Pickups
- Volume and tone control with 5-way Pick-up Selector
- She Weighs 7.5 lbs.
- Serial # 10 1653xx
She was born just a few weeks ago, on September 1st, 2010... and has never been owned. In fact, with the exception of my testing her out before writing this ad, she is completely unplayed. I just picked this up from the original retailer, who shipped the guitar to me on the same day that he received it from PRS... so the guitar has never even been on display. However, when I received the guitar, a screw managed to find it's way into the case, and it left a single small scratch on the back edge (visible in the pics). Otherwise,
The neck is straight with no cracks or repairs... The frets are perfect with their entire life ahead of them! Also included is the Special 25th Anniversary PRS hard shell case (shown in pics) and even includes the case candy, the adjustment tools, case key, a PRS catalog and the Bird Tag Certificate!! Whoever wins this auction will be stoked!!
