Same here. Never should have let that one one go! Congrats, they are great guitars!

Thanks a lot! Who knows, maybe it's your guitar that ended up here
By the way, I won't give too many details because I still need to "study" the rules here, and I'm not sure links to marketplaces are OK, but an identical one just appeared on a well known website, and the price is very very low... maybe it's fate and you should buy another one!

Only when they don’t know the words.

Absolutely gorgemous!!!!!!!!Hello! It's been years since I introduced myself... my name is Andrea, I'm from Italy, I've always loved PRS guitars, I used to have a Custom 24, then I sold it as I wasn't playing much often.
More recently I picked up the guitar again, I've been playing a lot and I re-joined the band I used to play with.
I normally play a roasted pine American Pro II Strat (modified with a white pickguard and a set of Gold Lace Sensors and locking tuners), but then I found this guitar on Reverb and I immediately pulled the trigger
It's one of the best guitars I've ever played (maybe the best?), when I plugged it in into my Mesa Recto-Verb 25 I immediately fell in love. The neck shape (wide fat), coupled with the satin finish, is fantastic.
But then - obviously
Based on what I understood it's not a common model so... another reason to keep it and enjoy playing it for the rest of my life
Looking forward to being more active on this forum!
Best,
A.

Some additional images after my luthier completed the work - he replaced the pickups with a set of Lollar 50’s Wind and I also asked him to modify the neck finish, now it’s “more satin”, so to speak. I really love an “unfinished” feel, it reminds me of the guitar with the best neck I ever had, a Music Man Steve Morse Y2D Rosewood Hardtail.

Today I played it for the first time at the band rehearsal, and I really loved it!
Small issue: I ordered and fitted a set of new Phase II tuners (the ones originally fitted were a bit “tired”) and apart from a few differences in terms of look/design, the hole for the screw on each tuner is very slightly misaligned with the screw hole in the headstock. Nothing major, I fitted them in any case, but… I was a bit surprised.
