Here is my 1989 Paul Reed Smith Custom 24. This is an amazing guitar but I have two that are similar. PRS likes to try and tell us their new guitars are just as good or even better but there is something special about these pre-factory guitars. I think these are highly undervalued because of that rhetoric. They were truly hand built and you can tell.
-Brazilian rosewood fingerboard with birds-Beautiful 10 Top. The flame almost transitions from a fiddle to a quilted pattern in th...e cut away areas. Unique and very 3D-Pickups are white label Vintage Bass and HFS (Hot, Fat, and Screams)-Original electronics with sweet switch-Small heel so the guitar feels more elegant and refined in the cutaway unlike the modern guitars with the big clunky heel.-Early and desirable one piece Mil-Com vibrato with original arm-Original case in good shape with all latches functional. Original key is included-Condition: It has been played and loved. It shows some wear but no cracks, breaks or repairs. See the pictures as part of the description. I have pictured all the worst marks. Note the chip in the headstock and scuffs on the back of the neck. Frets are shiny and smooth and have plenty of life left. There is no bad buckle rash. It was not a case queen but it was not abused.-Most importantly it plays and sound great!
