The Comprehensive PRS Inlay Guide

[Baimun]

Between copying over info from the old place, to people submitting new pics, this should be a nice addition to our new home.

I'll kick it off with the 20th Anniversary Birds originally available in the 2005 Anniversary editions, with some spillover into 06 and 07.

Up close you can see how the "whisps" were a different color than the "birds in flight".

Next we have the "Old Birds" or "Original Birds" seen here on a flame maple board from a Swamp Ash Special.

And the types of birds at each inlay from the PRS FAQ:

Peregrine falcon
Marsh hawk
Ruby throated hummingbird
Common tern
Coopers hawk
Kite
Sparrow landing
Storm petrel
Hawk landing
Screech owl on a branch (24-fret models only)

And a nice pic of a Moon inlay.

Thanks for picking this back up, guys. I didn't finish copying over what we had in the old thread before it was turned back off.
