I should say mine is a 1995 and was #347 of that build.

So I have an old Artist series II that I ordered new when they first came out many decades ago. I was thinking of changing the rotary knob to a 3 way toggle and decided to open the back up. I was surprised to see the installed pickups from the factory actually are Dragon I bass/treble. I...

I'd do a modern eagle 5 with thin neck and the color being either Santana Salmon or Pink Cherry Burst.

swamp ash with three single coil pickups and a roasted maple thin neck.

So I just bought a new custom 24 with a manufacturing date of mid-June ‘19. I noticed that both the volume and tone knobs have some movement in them. Kinda like they didn’t tighten the nuts enough. That can’t be normal can it? I have two much older PRSs and their knobs have no play in them...

when the p22 came out a few years ago, it came with a redesigned circuit board, 60% smaller than the original. Any of you know if prs has started using that new board with all their piezo equipped guitars? the standard push-pull coil tap couldn't be used in hollowbody's because the old...
