PM'd...
Life's too short to live with bad tone...
I have one of these - exact same model.
It's a stonkingly good guitar. None of the usual PRS bling (well, ok, apart from the special birds!) and a simple satin finish that means you can really feel the neck, and which (I'm sure) helps the guitar ring out much more. The p'ups are - to my ears - very flexible ... with tone & vol on 10, they'll give the amp plenty of dirt & drive, but back them off a little and you're into wonderfully clean tones.
I'd love to buy it and put it away safely for "years to come" ... but the one I've got is hardly a gigging guitar, and I don't think I'd win the "it's an investment" argument with she-who-must-be-obeyed.
But someone should buy it.

I agree, when i got it, I loved the inbetween tones that you can get by turning down the vol pot.Originally Posted by TTony
There's something special in the dialed in tones that you cant acheive with everything flat out.
Its a crying shame that this one deosnt get played as much as it should, but ive got most bases covered with 86 standard and my CE24's. Why gig and ding up a prestine finished guitar when i already have road worn guitars that'll provide the same tones.
Does yours have the wide thin or regular neck profile?
Ive only ever seen 20th anni's in wide thin and thats what originally drew me to my guitar in the first place. I cant stand the wide thin pattern coz it gives me tendonitus.

I cant believe this is still here..
I have mixed feelings about this guitar coz i hate having things around in cases not being played but at the same time its a really nice guitar to play.
Ironically I could've sold it it 5 times over in the states but i guess its destined to stay a while longer.
so one more punt before stashing it back under the bed for a couple of years
Whereabouts are you norm?
Im in Exeter Devon
Hmmm bit far to collect, im in Rotherham!
