NGD! 2009 Custom 22 Stoptail in McCarty Sunburst w/ maple headstock veneer.

[Chris Martin]

Hey everyone! Just took into the family a beautiful 2009 CU22 in McCarty Sunburst! At some point in its life someone put McCarty pickups in it which score in my opinion. I also asked PRS support about the details on the serial number because it didn’t come with a hang tag. Here’s what they had to say.

Serial# 09 151527 is consistent with a 2009
Custom 22, with a Flame Maple top,
Mahogany neck with a Wide-Fat profile, East
Indian Rosewood fretboard with bird inlays,
Straight stoptail bridge, \m/ treble and bass
pickups, finished in McCarty Sunburst, with
nickel hardware.

It’s actually a Custom 22 but the guy I bought it off of thought it was a McCarty too

Beautiful guitar! Metal pickups came out sometime around 2013. According to the MODCAT, the original pickups were Starla.

Very interesting! I wonder why the PRS rep said it came with Metal pickups originally.
