PRS 30th Anniversary Custom 24 Scarlet Red 2015

Here for sale we have a very special PRS 30th Anniversary Custom 24 in Scarlet Red finish. 2015 was the 30th Anniversary of the founding of PRS, and a commemorative model was released to celebrate. Similarly to previous commemorative models a unique fingerboard inlay design was produced, with the birds cascading down the fingerboard in an offset configuration with double birds at the 12 fret. Other commemorative features include the special 30th Anniversary truss rod cover, Rosewood headstock veneer with inlaid signature and ivroid purfling on the fingerboard. Made in the USA in 2015, this instrument features a set-neck construction comprising a Mahogany body with a carved Flamed Maple top, Mahogany neck and 24 fret Rosewood fingerboard. A hybrid of gold and nickel plated hardware is fitted including a PRS Machined tremolo bridge and Phase III locking tuning machines. A pair of PRS 85​/​15 humbucking pickups are installed, with an 85​/​15 Bass in the neck and 85​/​15 Treble in the bridge. These are wired to a 5-way blade pickup selector and master volume & tone controls. The Mahogany neck plays superbly well, with the 'Pattern Regular' profile offering a smooth, responsive and articulate paying experience in all registers. The nut width is marginally wider than the guitars ‘Pattern Thin’ counterpart, with a touch more depth along the entire register. The gloss finish to the rear of the neck assists with navigation of the 25" scale, and the double cutaway body design with signature PRS sculpted lower horn enhances access to each of the 24 frets. The Rosewood of the fingerboard is a luxurious dark brown, and is pleasant under the fingers, its 10" radius feeling practical for a wide range of playing styles and techniques whilst the attractive and unique Abalone inlays add a touch of luxury to the playing experience. This model saw the introduction of the now staple PRS 85​/​15 humbucking pickups. These pickups were the latest iteration in PRS’ quest to develop PAF style pickups, striving for a pickup with a very clear and precise output whilst avoiding an overly bright tone. The 85​/​15 Bass in the neck position offers an articulate and concise tone lending itself perfectly to Blues and Classic Rock style riffs. The 85​/​15 Treble pickup is more powerful and a touch brighter, and can handle higher amounts of gain for a saturated guitar sound on your riffs and power chords. In positions 2 & 4 the pickups effectively split, providing an out-of-phase single coil sound which works well for crystal clear shimmering clean sounds. The control layout remains simple but offers plenty of scope for shaping your tone.
